Like most militaries, the Russian ground forces (SV) structures operations into control zones. The U.S. uses a Functional framework to describe what generally occurs in each area.
The anchor is the Battle Area – with battle positions, IDF and mutually-supporting positions focused on a Kill Zone.
Elements in the Covering Force Area identify oncoming attackers and eliminate enemy reconnaissance elements.
Forward Security Zone deep operations prevent or hinder key capabilities from participating in the fight.
Rear Security guards against rear attacks and protects the Battle Area and Support Sub-Units.
NOTE: Ground Forces of the Russian Federation (Сухопутные войска Российской Федерации— Sukhoputnyye voyska Rossiyskoy Federatsii— SVRF shortened to SV in the ATP.
