The questionable performance of the Russian armed forces in the
conflict in Georgia in 2008 provided the impetus for a program of
far-reaching reform in the Russian military. The progress of this
reform has been the subject of intensive study, including in a
number of monographs issued by the Strategic Studies Institute. But
as Mr. Keir Giles and Dr. Andrew Monaghan describe in this Paper,
the most recent phase of military transformation in Russia allows
conclusions to be drawn about the final shape of the Russian
military once the process is complete-and about the range of
threats, some of them unrecognizable to us, that is guiding that
process. In this monograph, the authors use a wide range of Russian
language sources and interviews to illustrate not only the Russian
threat assessments highlighting the United States as a potential
aggressor, but also the many unique challenges facing Russia in
renewing and rearming its military.
