标题:About Statistics and a Ratio of Losses of Staff of Troops of the Southwest Front and the Troops of the Opponent Resisting to them in Offensive Operations in January-February, 1943
摘要:In the course of conducting offensive and defensive operations, the warring parties are fighting losses. The ratio of losses of the attacking side, as a rule, is significantly more than the loss side of the defenders. This rule in the first period of the Great Patriotic War did not work. The Wehrmacht and its allies during the offensives in 1941-1942 suffered losses much smaller than the defending soviet troops. In January-February, 1943, in the course of Millero-Voroshilovgrad offensive operations of troops of the southwestern front, the loss ratio has changed. This testified to the growing fighting experience of command of formations and associations and the result of the use of tank and mechanized corps of the red army massively, as in breaking the enemy's defense, and the action behind the enemy lines.
