Operational Manoeuvre Group (OMG): The Soviet Blitzkrieg Strategy
The Operational Manoeuvre Group (OMG) was a key Soviet concept for maneuver warfare, developed in the 1950s from the earlier "deep operations" theory. The goal was to rapidly deploy armored units deep into the enemy rear to disrupt command and logistics, neutralizing the threat of nuclear or precision weapons. OMG units were modular, emphasizing surprise, fire support, and reconnaissance, designed to achieve strategic objectives like encirclement and securing key positions. It represented a major shift towards aggressive, rapid tactics in the Soviet military. #OMG #SovietWarfare #HistoryShorts #Craig #ColdWar #MilitaryStrategy #ManeuverWarfare #SovietArmy #DeepOperations #ArmoredUnits #MilitaryDoctrine #HistoricalTactics #USSR #ColdWarStrategy
