AUTOMATION OF THE DECISION-MAKING PROCESSFOR FIGHTING IN THE GROUND FORCES OF THE ARMED FORCES OF UKRAINE

Abstract

The situation in Ukraine as a result of Russia's armed aggression has led the President of Ukraine to approve the National Security and Defense Council's decision on a road map for defense reform, defining ways of its implementation on the basis and principles guided by NATO member states. The algorithm of the work of the governing bodies of the NATO Armed Forces according to their standards during the decision to conduct combat operations is presented. Proposed to automate the work of governing bodies in the Ground Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine by NATO standards in deciding to conduct hostilities. Suggestions have been made on the algorithmization of the functional activities of governing bodies in the Army of the Armed Forces of Ukraine from the battalion and above the standards of the United States Armed Forces, which are identical to NATO standards, using specialized software and for its implementation in the training process of officers and cadets Hetman Petro Sahaidachnyi National Army Academy. In accordance with the algorithmization of the functional actions of the officials of the management bodies, software has been developed that has the following functional capabilities: providing information about the algorithm (procedure) of the officials of the management bodies; making calculations that are required when planning combat operations; ensuring the development of formalized documents; providing useful information in a convenient form; creation of an electronic map of operational (combat) situation on the ground of warfare. The proposed automation of the decision-making process for combat operations and the algorithmization of the work of officials of the ground forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine from the battalion and above can later be used in training centers and troops, as well as a prototype of the subsystem of the future automated ground control system of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Therefore, the main purpose of automation of the Armed Forces of Ukraine control system should be considered to ensure the guaranteed fulfillment of tasks by the troops to counter modern threats and challenges to the national security of the state, to improve and develop new algorithms and methods of work of commanders and staffs in deciding to conduct combat operations, their planning and management based on widely deployed information and telecommunications technologies in accordance with NATO standards.
