User:Noclador/sandbox/Austrian Army 1989

The order of battle of the Austrian Armed Forces in case of a Warsaw Pact attack in 1989 is given below.


 * Brigades were the army's counterattack and reserve forces, held back until the Landwehr units would have worn down enemy forces.
 * Landwehr regiments were to defend key areas (Schlüsselzonen) which the enemy would not be allowed to pass through.
 * Landwehr battalions (Landwehrbataillone) were static battalions tasked with defending their area of operations.
 * Blocking battalions and companies (Sperrbataillone and Sperrkompanien) were to defend fortified positions.
 * Light Infantry battalions and companies (Jagdkampfbataillone and Jagdkampfkompanien) were meant to fight behind enemy lines and disrupt logistic supply lines.
 * River-blocking companies (Flusssperrkompanien) would have had to prevent the enemy from crossing rivers at fords.
 * Guard companies (Wachkompanien) were to guard key infrastructure.
 * Guard-blocking companies (Wachsperrkompanien) would have guarded transport infrastructure (i.e. bridges, tunnels) and had to prevent the enemy from using the infrastructure.
 * Fortification Artillery batteries (Artilleriebatterie ortsfest) would have employed M2 155mm howitzers in bunkers to lay suppressing fire on enemy approach routes.

On 1 March 1978, the "Wehrgesetz 1978" became law, which encompassed the "Heeresgliederung 1978" plan to grow the Austrian Armed Forces to 384,000 (84,000 active, 300,000 militia) by the early 1990s to be able to fully employ the Austrian de:Raumverteidigung's concept. A total of 30 new Landwehrstammregimenter were to be raised. On 6 October 1987, the Austrian government enacted the "Heeresgliederung 1987", which instructed the armed forces to stop the growth of the militia at 200,000. Afterwards only the militia's infantry grew, making 1988-1989 the timeframe Austria's armed forces reached their maximum strength. On 29 May 1990 the "Wehrgesetz 1978" was cancelled and the army began to shrink, which accelerated with the Gesamte Rechtsvorschrift für Wehrgesetz 1990, Fassung vom 31.12.1992.
