This book is the first in a multivolume series of publications reproducing lecture materials presented at the Voroshilov Academy of the General Staff of the USSR Armed Forces in the 1973-75 course of study. This extensive body of materials addresses a broad range of issues integral to Soviet thinking on Strategic, operational, and tactical levels of war. It is among the most authoritative and detailed information on the Soviet Armed Forces to become available publicly.
