[RusOnline] Mobilization will have a serious effect on the front-line situation. The training of specialists within the framework of partial mobilization is unlikely to be quick, military observer Alexander Artamonov believes.
He believes that the leadership of the RF Armed Forces will follow the long-standing practice, when it took three months to train reservists in most specialties, Ukraina.ru writes.
The expert believes that this will be of great importance for the course of the special operation, expressing confidence that the difference between the current state of affairs and the future will be significant. "I bet that the first good changes will begin in late November - early December, before Catholic Christmas," he said.
Artomonov noted that it is more likely that the first changes will begin before November 20th, and decisive changes are expected before December 25th.
According to him, by this time there may be a decisive change in the situation at the front - the return of previously lost settlements will begin. The expert believes that the mobilization was announced because there are not enough physical infantry to contain the front line. It is more likely that the veteran units will line up along the line of contact, while the mobilized ones will occupy the second line.
Sounds to me like the Russians will set up switchlines for the movement of fire brigades/quick reaction forces to threatened areas of the front. It will be interesting to see if they can implement the system in a mobile environment, not just in a defensive or static one.
