Soviet Deep Battle

Soviet Deep Battle was a military strategy developed during World War II that focused on attacking an enemy’s rear infrastructure, communications, and supply lines to weaken their entire war effort. Instead of just fighting on the front lines, Soviet forces aimed to disrupt the enemy’s ability to resupply, reinforce, and coordinate. This approach involved coordinated attacks on multiple levels—covering the front, the depth behind enemy lines, and using surprise to outmaneuver opponents. It was designed to quickly break through defenses and collapse the enemy’s overall operational capabilities, leading to a faster victory with fewer casualties.
