During the conference Defence24 Days The leading commanders of the Polish Army and the head of the National safety Bureau discussed key changes in the army to increase its ability to respond to modern threats. The main subject of the discussion was the urgent request to improvement the command system.
Obsolete command strategy – Why does it request changes?
Chief of General Staff of the HR, Gen. Wiesław Kukułastressed that the current command model, based on a breakdown by ‘force provider’ (power provider) and ‘force usera’ (power user), he is no longer fit for modern challenges. This system, introduced in 2014, was designed primarily for expeditional missions specified as anti-terrorist operations. Within its framework General Command is liable for training and equipping soldiers, and Operations Command For fighting.
Gen. Kukuła rated this strategy as ‘completely inadequate’. A akin position was taken by the gene. Dariusz Lukowski with BBN, indicating that the problem lies not with the commanders, but with the ineffective and overloaded organisational structure. As an example, he outlined a situation in which Naval Inspector has no real impact on the leadership of its formation.
“You gotta go back to the old regulation “Train, command, answer” – stressed Gen. Lukowski.
New command model – What will change?
The General Staff prepares recommendations to the state authorities on the fresh chain of command. Its main pillars are:
- Joint Operations Command – liable for overseeing the readiness of all armed forces and coordinating actions during peace and war.
- Transformation Command – to train, implement innovation and supplement conflict losses.
Gen. Kukuła pointed out that the fresh model has the advantage that does not require reorganisation of structures erstwhile moving from peace to war, which is presently generating considerable difficulties.
“We must be ready” – Military prepared for war
"We will urge specified changes due to the fact that present we are preparing for war. (...) We request to be ready – we have constitutional duties on us soldiers, and we will do everything we can to fulfill them.” – stressed the Chief of General Staff.
Gen. Łukowski recalled that the bill prepared by the presidential administration, providing for the appointment of Joint Operations CommandHe's already gone to the Sejm. He besides pointed out that proposals for amendments were drawn up by military experts, not politicians.
"Today, there is truly no uncertainty that the strategy needs to be changed. The question is only erstwhile to do it, at what point. (...) I always say that it is about time to do so (...) No 1 from the military has any doubts about that” – he added.
Summary
The improvement of the command strategy in the Polish Army is a key step in conflict preparedness. The fresh model aims to increase the efficiency of the army, improve the decision-making process and guarantee better coordination of actions. All indications are that the changes will be made soon.
