The Russian military has continued the ambitious reform program launched in September 2008. Although a major plank of the army's transformation to a brigade-based structure -- namely the dissolution of the established army/corps/division organization structure -- had been officially completed in 2009, the precise composition of the new brigades remains under development. Russian ground forces appear to have embarked on a modernization process that is being tested and adjusted as it proceeds. Overall, the process of reform is proving flexible and is developing with impressive speed. However, in some areas it has not run smoothly. Further significant changes can be expected during 2011.
