Specific Approaches to the North Atlantic Alliance Action – Operational Logistics Particularities –

Summary/Abstract: The analyses, assessments, decisions and actions taken as a result of the initiation and development of the armed conflict in Ukraine have led us to study the materialization of some of the Alliance’s operational objectives, starting with the nature of failures in providing the necessary logistical support to the aggressor forces, as well as in revealing certain aspects of the need for improvement in this area for NATO national and/or multinational combat forces operating on national territory. Our approach is based on publications by NATO bodies, experts in the field, and procedures that are known, which will need to be greatly improved in the future. At the same time, our scientific effort has been focused on the need to pay more attention to operational logistics in the immediate future, precisely because of the increasing complexity of the operational environment through the intensive use, primarily, of drones and modern high-precision strike systems. Under these circumstances, we have highlighted the need for logistics managers and their subordinates to be the first to act, proactively, to create the conditions of sufficiency, safety and resilience associated with the provision of logistics support, in order to achieve operational success for the combat forces.
