The Ground Forces of Ukraine have started forming new mechanized, tank and artillery brigades to reinforce its combat capabilities. According to the rumors, new brigades are also being formed in the structure of Air Assault troops and Marine Corps. It's planned to mobilize about 30 000 Ukrainian citizens in January alone, which is a sharp increase compared to previous months.\n\nThe new brigades will be equipped primary, but not exclusively, with the Western vehicles such Abrams, Leopard 2 tanks and CV-90 infantry fighting vehicles. Most of the recruits are, or will be, trained abroad.\n\n21st Mechanized Brigade<\/strong><\/a> is a brand-new mechanized brigade, currently at the stage of formation.\n\n\"\"<\/a>\n

soldiers of 21st Mechanized Brigade receiving backpacks from volunteers<\/em><\/p>\n33rd Mechanized Brigade<\/strong><\/a> was formed in April 2016 as part of Ukrainian Reserve Corps, but was subsequently demobilized and de-facto remained only on paper. The brigade has been reactivated and is making its comeback. The unit received new insignia with a wolf, a symbol that reportedly characterizes 33rd Mechanized Brigade.\n\n\"\"<\/a>\n

the insignia of 33rd Mechanized Brigade<\/em><\/p>\n47th Artillery Brigade<\/a><\/strong> is a new artillery brigade of Ukrainian forces, formed during the last months and currently deployed near the Russian border in Kharkiv Oblast.\n\n\"\"<\/a>\n

the insignia of 47th Artillery Brigade<\/em><\/p>\n116th Mechanized Brigade<\/strong><\/a> is a completely new brigade of Ukrainian Ground Forces. The brigade is currently at the stage of formation, but volunteers are already seeking donations for the unit and reveled not only the existence, but also the unit number, A4722.\n\n\"\"<\/a>\n

soldiers of 116th Mechanized Brigade receiving supplies from the volunteers<\/em><\/p>\n118th Mechanized Brigade<\/strong> is another completely new mechanized brigade at the stage of formation at this moment. There is currently no additional information available and given the possibility that some less familiar people can confuse 118th Mechanized Brigade and 118th Territorial Defense Brigade, we advise to wait for further confirmation.\n\nThe new tank, air assault and marine brigades have not yet officially received a number. We'll keep an eye on these units and in case anything pops up, we'll update the page.","post_excerpt":"Ukrainian Ground forces continue to grow and form additional brigades to counter the Russian invasion.","post_author":"1","post_date":"2023-01-30 21:22:56","post_date_gmt":"2023-01-30 20:22:56","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"ukraine-is-forming-new-brigades","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-06-23 13:47:55","post_modified_gmt":"2024-06-23 12:47:55","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/militaryland.net\/?p=17148","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"7","comments":[{"comment_ID":"7068","comment_post_ID":"17148","comment_author":"Georgian","comment_author_email":"chagalidzetornike@gmail.com","comment_author_url":"","comment_author_IP":"172.71.160.49","comment_date":"2023-02-02 23:07:02","comment_date_gmt":"2023-02-02 22:07:02","comment_content":"Ukrainian National guards, border forces and Police are forming too their own brigades.
