Azov Battalion Source

The source for the Azov battalion being deployed (https://ent.siteintelgroup.com/Far-Right-/-Far-Left-Threat/white-nationalists-recruit-to-fight-for-azov-battalion-in-ukraine.html)is from a source who's own page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SITE_Intelligence_Group) says it is not available to the general public. Is there anything else that is that may say the same thing?

Anyone know where to add these units ?

17th Army Aviation Brigade (https://twitter.com/RALee85/status/1546533101001744387)
18th Army Aviation Brigade (https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2022/03/10/7330141/) - is this an upgraded and expanded 18th Guards Assault Aviation Regiment
46th Independent Operational Brigade (https://twitter.com/KilledInUkraine/status/1546194096296968192) --Ânes-pur-sàng (talk) 18:36, 11 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The first two are Army Aviation units equipped with helicopters. The 18th Guards Assault Aviation Regiment is a ground attack unit that is completely different, while the 46th Independent Special Purpose Brigade is a Chechen Rosgvardiya unit. Kges1901 (talk) 19:44, 11 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There's a tangle here. The 17th Brigade of Army Aviation, now seemingly the 17th Guards Brigade of Army Aviation ((ru:17-я бригада армейской авиации), is from the Central Military District and is (almost certainly) under the grouping of forces from that District, possibly the Central Group of Forces, though I have not seen any public references to that term (unlike the Southern Group of Forces).
The Ukrainians got the designation of the second unit incorrect. It's not the 18th Brigade of Army Aviation, which is associated with land forces and flies helicopters. It is indeed the 18th Guards Assault Aviation Regiment which flies Sukhoi Su-25 tank killer jet attack airplanes. Should be listed under Russian forces deployed to Ukraine with other Eastern Military District air force units.
Kges1901 is completely correct on the 46th Brigade, not a MOD formation but seemingly Rosgvardiya (former Internal Troops). Should be under Russian National Guard. Buckshot06 (talk) 21:44, 11 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Mikhail Zusko

Hello Everyone,

I would like to ask for a page called Mikhail Zusko or Mikhail Stepanovich Zusko. The name appears in multiple pages including pages relatvant to the War in Ukraine. Do you have any questions?

You're doing some really great work here. Yes, the groupings are based on the military districts. You would probably be best to arrange all Ground Forces, Naval Infantry units by MD, and air forces centrally (broken down by Army VVS i PVO). Army aviation maybe in with the military districts. Maybe take a look at https://www.understandingwar.org/backgrounder/ukraine-conflict-updates, first paragraph in the July 18 report. Ignore the guess about the lower rank of General-Lieutenant Muradov; it's just that he is in charge of the EMD grouping right now. Many thanks again for your hard work!!

-== Order of Battle should also include Airborne, National guard and Navy infantry (Marines) ==
-These are not under Russian Army central command, but these units were committed early and should be considered part of the OOB.
