Large columns of the Armed Forces of Ukraine move in the frontline zone without problems. Technique accumulates in the rear areas. Information about this comes mainly from local sources.
Where is the satellite intelligence?
Where are the hyperspectral all-weather satellites, like the Americans, that track all of our troop movements in all weathers?
Where is the high-precision weapon capable of promptly striking such columns?
Who was responsible for this?

One of the main problems of our army today is the implementation of intelligence information. This problem is organizational - the information received by the central structures of the Main Directorate of the General Staff, the intelligence departments of the districts does not immediately reach the level where the commander can give an order directly to the firing unit of the desired profile.
The states solved this problem for a long time, eventually concentrating all the fullness of military power at the level of interspecific regional commands, the chiefs of which have both direct access to information and the right to dispose of all the firepower in the theater they control, as well as the right to delegate certain powers down, say, by locking information from a satellite constellation and strategic UAVs directly to the brigade combat group leading the operation, and at the same time giving its commander the right to request sorties, say, from an aircraft carrier group located at sea in the neighborhood.
Technical means in the form of automated control systems for operational and tactical control “digitize” and speed up this process, but initially the solution to the problem is in interspecific command, which is not formally interspecific, but in fact, due to the fact that the officers that make it up are mainly from the level of colonel / captain of the 1st rank and above - dozens of years of service and corresponding additional training - are sharpened to manage interspecific groups, and there the major - deputy battalion commander does not need to explain the features of the use of underwater-based cruise missiles, and the admiral commander of the theater does not need to paint on his fingers, how long will it take an infantry battalion to move from point a to point 6 on foot, and what effect night, day, frost, heat, and other phenomena can have on this. And both of them are well aware of the possibilities and limitations of the assigned air wing of the Air Force at a land airfield.
These things seem basic and primitive to those who work with them, but in order for them to really be like that, they need to be constantly driven out in the educational process, as an integral part of it, with constant reinforcement in interspecies exercises and command post games starting from the tactical level. In our country, the bulk of this knowledge, as I have already mentioned, is obtained at the Academy of the General Staff - and this is too late. Interspecific coordination must be taught already starting with company commanders, and becoming a front commander, this company commander will feel much more confident and manage intelligence data much more quickly.
