Russo-Ukrainian war (2022–present) order of battle

Administrative chain of command Commanders of the various MOD armed services and branches do not have operational control over the forces. They are responsible for force development and generation. The Chiefs of the ground forces, aerospace forces, navy, strategic missile forces, and airborne forces also hold the appointments of Deputy Ministers of Defence, junior to the Chief of the General Staff, who is the First Deputy Minister of Defence. The General Staff commands and controls forces through the National Defence Management Centre (NDMC). Operational control of the forces was carried out by the five Operational-Strategic Commands—the Western, Southern, Central, and Eastern Military Districts and the OSK Northern Fleet, which is their equal. The Western and Southern Military Districts share borders with Ukraine and are directly involved in command and control of operations. Pre-2022 Russian military doctrine had specified that on the outbreak of war, armed forces from non-MOD services (like Rosgvardiya) would be placed under the General Staff. • (President of the Russian Federation: Supreme Commander-in-Chief Vladimir Putin) • Security Council • Rosgvardiya (General of the Army Viktor Zolotov; Deputy Commander Lieutenant General Roman Gavrilov) • Federal Security Service (General of the Army Alexander Bortnikov) • Russian Border Guards (Deputy Director of the Federal Security Service and Head of the Border Service: Vladimir Kulishov) • Federal Protective Service (Director of the Federal Protective Service: General Dmitry Kochnev) • Ministry of Internal Affairs (Minister of Internal Affairs: Vladimir Kolokoltsev) • Police of Russia • Ministry of Defence (Minister of Defence: Andrey Belousov) • Russian General Staff (Chief of the General Staff: General of the Army Valery Gerasimov, First Deputy Chief of the General Staff Nikolay Bogdanovsky); National Defense Management Center (Colonel General Mikhail Mizintsev) • GRU (Director: Admiral Igor Kostyukov) • 8th Directorate - Directorate Spetsnaz (Spetsnaz GRU) • Russian Ground Forces (Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Ground Forces and Deputy Minister of Defence: General of the Army Oleg Salyukov) • Russian Engineer Troops (Lieutenant General Yuri Stavitsky) • Russian Missile Troops and Artillery (Lieutenant-General Mikhail Matveyevsky) • Russian Tank Troops • Air Defence Troops of the Russian Ground Forces • Russian Army Aviation • Logistical Support of the Russian Armed Forces (Colonel General Mikhail Mizintsev, who replaced Army General Dmitry Bulgakov in September 2022) • Russian Railway Troops • Russian Aerospace Forces (Commander-in-Chief of the Aerospace Forces and Deputy Minister of Defence: General of Army • Russian Navy (Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Navy and Deputy Minister of Defence: Admiral Nikolai Yevmenov) • Coastal Troops of the Russian Navy (Lieutenant General Viktor Astapov) • Russian Naval Infantry (Lieutenant General ) • Russian Naval Aviation (Major-General Igor Kozhin) Initial force groupings Ukrainian military commentator Yuri Butusov listed the following initial March 2022 deployment of Russian/allied forces: Russian leaders, 2022–23 Despite evolving Russian doctrine, which specified all troops and forces operating from one Operational-Strategic Command (OSK) be placed under one commander, multiple repeated sources (Rochan Consulting, Center for Naval Analysis, British Ministry of Defence) reported that separate groupings of forces drawn from each of the four military districts, under the leadership of senior personnel from that military district, took part in the initial invasion. President Vladimir Putin was repeatedly reported to be very involved, sometimes giving orders to field formations. According to US officials, the commander of the Russian Southern Military District, Aleksandr Dvornikov, was placed in overall command on 8 April 2022. Analysts of the OSINT organisation CIT speculated that Dvornikov had been replaced by Gennady Zhidko in late May 2022, with US officials quoted in the New York Times also speculating that he had "disappeared". According to Mason Clark of the ISW, since Dvornikov and Zhidko remained "double-hatted" as Military District commanders during their reported terms as overall commanders, they were "first among equals" rather than true theatre commanders. In October 2022 the Russian ministry of defence officially announced that Sergei Surovikin had been placed in charge of Russia's forces fighting in Ukraine, according to analyst John Hardie writing for the Long War Journal, Surovikin was "likely the operation’s first true unified commander". Surovikin, who Hardie described as "a competent commander" was replaced in January 2023 by Valery Gerasimov. The Russian ministry of defence claimed that Surovikin's replacement was necessitated by the need for a more senior officer to carry out an "amplified range of tasks," and to increase "cooperation between services and branches of the Armed Forces." According to Hardie, Suvorikin's replacement may have reflected "internal power politics". ==Russian forces==

Since 12 January 2023, Chief of the General Staff Army General Valery Gerasimov was appointed as commander of military operations in Ukraine, with Surovikin as his deputy. The actual operational chain of command of the Russian military effort in Ukraine is not public, changes, and is a mix of state and non-state bodies. Personal rivalries are evident. President Vladimir Putin, however, remains firmly in control, sometimes micromanaging. The loose connection of various mercenary bodies and Ramzan Kadyrov's Chechens to the official command chain has been represented by placing them under headers separate to the Russian Armed Forces. It is unclear how tactical fighter, ground attack, and strategic bomber "sorties" (one flight of one aircraft) are scheduled and controlled. On 18 April 2023, Russian official sources said that President Putin had held meetings in the Kherson area with several commanders. The President "..received reports from the commander of the Dnepr forces grouping, General Lieutenant Oleg Makarevich, the commander of the Vostok [Eastern] forces grouping, General Lieutenant Andrey Kuzmenko, and the deputy commander of the combined grouping, General Colonel Mikhail Teplinsky." The meetings likely took place before 16 April.
