This article proposes a unified theory of logistics for the Air Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine based on the existing theories of armament and the logistics of the Armed Forces, and on the general laws and established consistent patterns, trends, principles, forms and methods of the use of the logistics of the Air Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The objective function of the logistics system of the Air Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is formulated to achieve compliance of the capabilities of this system with the predicted volume of logistics tasks. In order to implement this compliance, it is necessary to ensure the convergence of requirements and capabilities at all levels of logistics management. The assessment of the functioning of the Air Forces logistics system of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is proposed on the basis of the stated views on the logistics theory of the Air Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine by assessing the set of real capabilities of each subsystem that is a part of its structure and system as a whole. At the same time, the assessment of the quality of the logistic support of the military units (formations) of the Air Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine should be related to the level of implementation of the potential capabilities of the logistics system when solving problems of each subsystem at the various stages of combat training, unblocking and operational deployment, the preparation and conduct of operations (combat actions), restoration of combat capability of troops (forces).

The existing separate arms theory and the theory of the Logistics of the Armed Forces as components of military science lose their functional purpose as partial theories in modern conditions of operations (combat actions).The article proposes a unified theory of logistics of the Air Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, based on the existing theories of armament and the logistics of the Armed Forces, based on the general laws and established consistent patterns, trends, principles, forms and methods of the use of the logistics of the Air Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The objective function of the logistics system of the Air Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is formulated, which is to achieve compliance of the capabilities of this system with the predicted volume of tasks of the logistics. In order to implement this compliance it is necessary to ensure the convergence of requirements and capabilities at all levels of logistics management.The purpose of the article is to determine the main provisions of the new unified theory of logistics of the Air Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine taking into account modern forms and methods of conducting operations (combat actions), requirements concerning the formation of a unified logistics system of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and logistic support, created management bodies, forces and assets of military units (formations) logistics of the Air Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.The assessment of the functioning of the Air Forces logistics system of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is proposed on the basis of the stated views on the logistics theory of the Air Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine by assessing the set of real capabilities of each subsystem that is the part of its structure and system as a whole.

The current stage of reforming the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AF) confirms that the crisis in the country's economy has significantly affected the system of logistics of troops, which ensures its main task – to maintain the combat readiness of military units and ensure their livelihood in peacetime. The war in the east of the country and the existing state of providing troops showed the need to improve the organization and management of the process of logistical (technical, rear and medical) provision of training and combat use of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which is currently in the phase of perspective changes and necessitates the development of a new concept of military information management and logistical flows, which will be implemented by a new, more efficient structure, called the "military logistics system". The purpose of the article is to determine the directions for the creation and accumulation of an optimal nomenclature of stocks of material resources in peacetime and their rational separation at the tactical, operational and strategic levels of management. The article describes the contents of the concepts of "logistics", "echelon", "stocking", "operational accounting". Important tasks of modern conditions of process of creation and management of stocks in the course of reforming of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are systematized; variants of the offered models of inventory management are outlined. The goal is achieved through theoretical and experimental research on volume optimization and material separation at all levels of management, which is one of the key problems of military logistics.

One of the activities of the Ministry of National Defense is concern for the quality of education and the number of officers who annually enters the service in military units. These actions are now of greater importance, since the Ministry of National Defense clearly increases the number of Polish soldiers. This is mainly due to the formation of the Territorial Defense Forces and the urgent need to supplement the personnel status in operational units envisaged for cooperation under the so-called reinforcement of the eastern flank. In view of this, the Ministry of National Defense conducts annual work to determine the number of candidates for professional soldiers who, in the future, after fulfilling many formal and substantive requirements, will swell the ranks of the officer cadre. In this publication, the author discusses the procedures involved in drafting legislation regulating the limits of admission of candidates for professional soldiers to military higher education institutions that educate future second lieutenants to serve in the Armed Forces.

This article presents an analysis of the process of optimizing the process of managing the integrated supply chain in the system of logistics of military units of the National Guard of Ukraine. The paper optimizes the process of managing the integrated supply chain in the logistics system of military units of the National Guard of Ukraine is considered as an interconnected and interdependent set of organizations, resources and knowledge flows involved in ensuring supply and value formation. A general model of creating an integrated value formation system is proposed, which is a sequence of actions and strategies, the implementation of which is necessary for the successful reorganization of the existing supply chain for the military units of the National Guard of Ukraine. Within the framework of the offered model the reflected processes consist in optimization of coordination of various functions. Emphasis is placed on the need to create a logistics center that functions as an information adapter in order to rationally manage the flow of the supply process. This article highlights new tasks, the solution of which requires employees to supply the highest level of intellectual and creative potential. The work for the military units of the National Guard of Ukraine offers criteria for selecting decisions on the use of internal and external sources. The article develops a model for estimating the structure of total costs in the supply chain, which acts as a link that is connected between consumers and suppliers. The main factor in the use of information systems for the successful functioning of the supply chain in this article considers the need for almost perfect connections, both within the company of the stakeholder of the military unit, and between them. Emphasis is placed on the fact that the created model changes the very basis of decision-making, using an approach that stimulates the reduction of aggregate costs in the supply chain and increase the overall competitive advantage in the movement of materials and information from supplier to military units. The article proposes a system for measuring efficiency, which is not only applicable at several levels of organizational management, but also able to integrate multi-level operational activities to achieve the goals of organizations in the supply chain.

The study is devoted to the problem of financial regulation of the defense industry and the provision of troops, as the escalation of the military conflict in eastern Ukraine has revealed shortcomings in this area. A comparative analysis of NATO and Ukraine’s defense spending was conducted and differences in the cost structure were identified. The tendency of Ukraine’s defense spending to gradually approach the structure of NATO defense spending is pointed out, but the insufficient level of this approach is also taken into account. The analysis allowed to identify problematic issues and inconsistencies in the financial regulation of the defense industry. The state of export of defense equipment and technologies as a possible source of financing of defense enterprises is analyzed. The existence of two opposite trends in the financial regulation of military logistics has been identified: both an increase in funding in absolute terms and a reduction in the share of the total amount for the implementation of the unified logistics system of the State Armed Forces Development Program. The developed mathematical model of supply of military units is suitable for use in information systems of logistical support of troops.

The process of disorganization of the armed forces of Austria-Hungary in 1918 is considered through the prism of the national issue and the prospects for the further preservation of the Habsburg Monarchy. It is concluded that the military and diplomatic victories won in the early 1918 by Austria-Hungary were illusory and only put off the inevitable defeat of its army. Investigation of the first cases of mass withdrawal from obedience of military units in the spring and summer of 1918, showed that they were an interweaving of social, national-political and military reasons proper. At the same time, a serious discrepancy was revealed between Slovenian and Italian researchers in the interpretation of the reasons for the uprising in the 97th infantry regiment stationed in the Slovenian Radkersburg (Radgon). If for the former it was typical, following the Marxist tradition, to emphasize the social contradictions that led to the revolutionization of the army according to the “Russian model”, the latter praised the participants in the uprising from the Italian side as genuine national patriots. It is shown that the “shock force” of all the soldiers’ uprisings that broke out in the spring and summer of 1918 in the Austro-Hungarian army were servicemen who returned from Russian captivity in the spring of 1918, where some of them were imbued with revolutionary ideas. The conclusion is drawn about the extreme severity of military justice, which condemned many of the insurgents to death, which became the reason for deputy inquiries.

The article is devoted to the analysis of the possibilities of operative (audial and visual) memory among cadets of military educational organizations. As a result of an empirical study of the mnemonic abilities of 56 cadets of the Military University of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, it was found that the perception of information in a visual form has a greater impact on the volume and quality of the stored material than the presentation of information in an auditory form. A technique was used to present 10 words in various forms and memorize. The revealed originality of the representative mnemonic systems of operative memory of servicemen (military cadets) serves as a basis for improving the educational process, combat training and personnel management.

Abstract The membership of the country in the Euro-Atlantic structures, the professionalization of the Armed Forces and their participation in joint operations put the Bulgarian Army in front of the necessity to comply with the rules for communal-household provision applied in the NATO member states. As the resource constraint of the Military Budget, determined by the economic potential of the country, does not allow the construction of new military infrastructure objects, the current models for modernization, maintenance and utilization of the military infrastructure in the part of the communal-household provision of the Armed Forces are proposed. The implementation of the presented models is in response to solve problems in improving the maintenance and using military infrastructure elements. On the one hand, the applicability of the models requires the development of scientifically-based norms and legislation for the communal-household provision of the servicemen and on the other hand, it responds to the requirements for improving the quality of life of military personnel in the context of continuous structural reforms and transformations

Armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, loss of important industrial potentials, as Topaz State Joint Stock Holding Company, which specialized in the development and production of complex radio engineering systems and complexes, including unique long-range radio intelligence systems and early warning of anti-aircraft anti-aircraft systems Kolchuga radio intelligence provided a significant impetus for the development of radio electronic intelligence (EER) as one of the main, technical types of military intelligence Of Ukraine. Radio-electronic Intelligence of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is a set of measures and actions for obtaining intelligence on the armed forces of the reconnaissance states through exposing the functioning of radio-electronic means (PE3) and systems used for the control of troops (forces) and weapons, collection, processing, analysis and bringing this intelligence to specific consumers within the prescribed timeframe. The purpose of the EED is to expose early and guaranteed early warning signs of an imminent threat to the security of Ukraine by the reconnaissance states (blocs, coalitions), as well as to obtain intelligence for the effective preparation and use of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. To achieve the objective of the ERD, the ERD system is functioning, which is a set of interrelated and coordinated in their actions by the tasks, place and time of the ERD governing bodies of all units and forces and means of the military units (units) of the ERF OSF that perform certain intelligence tasks on a single purpose. and plan. Intelligence tasks and reconnaissance objects for the military units (units) of the EWP OSR are determined taking into account their purpose, availability of forces and capabilities and their capabilities. An important element of the planning of the EER, both in peacetime and in the operational period, is the rational (expedient) distribution of EER forces and resources in the military unit of the EOM in the tasks, objects and sources of intelligence. In the article, based on the analysis of problems of distribution of the resource of forces and means by tasks, objects and sources of radio-electronic intelligence, as the basic element of planning on command posts of military units (units) of the ER, the structure of partial distribution methodology for the organs of operational-tactical control unit is substantiated. The methodology is based on a systematic approach to the organization of intelligence, taking into account the requirements of adequacy in structural and functional image in modelling the relationship of tasks, objects and sources of intelligence. The main purpose of the methodology is to develop resource allocation plans to improve the efficiency of conducting electronic reconnaissance by system elements and to evaluate their capabilities.
