Warsaw Pact Order of Battle June 1989

v. 1.0 January 28, 2001

This copyright article is by Mr. Andy Johnson. Mr. Johnson served in the US military, but most of this information is from easily available open sources. He last updated the OOB on May 27, 2000. You are welcome to use it after getting permission.

Mr. Johnson writes:

Note: I have updated the OOB for both the WP and NATO to reflect a June 1989 timeframe. This would have been the latest possible moment that a war could have started with both sides at their peak. Shortly after this, the Soviets began a massive withdrawal from eastern Europe followed by a corresponding downsizing by the West.

References: This OOB is derived from a collection of documents including but not limited to US Army Field Manual 100-2-3 dated June 1991, Soviet Military Power 1990 edition, World Defense Almanac 1990 edition, and various Jane's Defense Weekly's published in the 1980's. Additionally, much data was collected while stationed in Germany 1983-85 and 1988-90.

Note 1: This OOB begins with the Soviet land and air forces assigned to the Western Group of Forces (WGF), known earlier as the Group of Soviet Forces Germany. Then follows the Northern Group of Forces (NGF) in Poland, the Central Group of Forces (CGF) in Czechoslovakia, and the Southern Group of Forces (SGF) in Hungary. Formerly, only the forces in the western military districts of the USSR were provided, but now all 16 Soviet military districts (the Navy and Air Defense forces will be added at a later date) are described. This is followed by Soviet forces in Mongolia and Afghanistan and then by the Non Soviet Warsaw Pact (NSWP) forces of the German Democratic Republic (GDR), Poland (PVA), Czechoslovakia (CVA), Rumania (RVA), Hungary (UVA), and Bulgaria (BKA).

Note 2: In 1989, the USSR had the world divided into multiple Theatres (TVD's) and the Soviet Union itself had 16 Military Districts (MD). The Western TVD, based in Legnica, Poland consisted of the Baltic, White Russian, and Carpathian MD's and the WGF, NGF, and CGF. The Northwestern TVD, based in Leningrad, had the Leningrad MD. The Southwestern TVD, HQ in Vinnitsa, USSR had the Kiev and Odessa MD's and the SGF. The Southern TVD in Tashkent, USSR had the Turkestan, North Caucasus, and Trans Caucasus MD's and Afghanistan. The Strategic reserves based in Moscow had the Volga, Ural, and Moscow MD's. Finally, the Far East TVD, based in Irkutsk, USSR had the Central Asian, Siberian, Transbaikal, and Far East MD's and Mongolia. In 1989-90 the Central Asia MD was abolished and the Volga merged with the Ural MD. More changes came in 1992.

Note 3: A generic TO&E down to Regimental and separate Battalion organizations follows the WP OOB. The WP organizations listed below may be missing various doctrinal formations. I am sure they are there, just not identified, feel free to use the generic OOB as a guide to supplement those forces.

Note 4: Soviet Front organizations are wartime designations and do not exist in peacetime. In the event of war, each Group of Soviet Forces and Military Districts would assume a "Front" organization, this is equivalent to a western Army Group. The WGF was expected to break into two separate Front formations, the Northern and Southern German fronts, The NGF headquarters element would have assumed one of these roles.

Note 5: Soviet forces were divided between 4 readiness categories, Category A is a combat ready formation. Category B is between 50-75% strength with modern equipment requiring a few days to be combat ready. Category C is less than 50% strength with older equipment requiring 2 months mobilization time. Category D has less than 5% strength and real old equipment requiring 6 months. All Divisions outside the USSR and all Airborne Divisions are Cat A.

Note 6: Just like any military, the Soviet and Warsaw Pact forces were in a continual state of upgrade and change, discrepancies will occur between various sources of information. I spent 15 years of my Army career focused on fighting the Soviet threat (I'm glad it never happened) and continuously updating that information, so in some cases where information is vague, I made assumptions based on that experience which are highlighted in bold. New or recently changed data will be underlined.

Note 7: Pay particular attention to the various WP Motorized Rifle Regiments, they are not all alike. Typically a BTR (wheeled) regiment was equipped with wheeled support assets, towed howitzers, wheeled ADA, etc., and a BMP (tracked) regiment used tracked assets, self-propelled howitzers, etc. There are exceptions. In the late 1980's, some Motorized Rifle Divisions were converting one of the BTR Regiments to a second BMP Regiment.

Note 8: Motorized Rifle Divisions were equipped with an independent tank battalion (51 tanks), and some Armies had an independent tank regiment. These units along with the Unified Corps at the Front were used as an Operational Maneuver Group (OMG) at the respective levels. Once a hole was punched through a defense, these forces would break through into the enemy rear area. This was a concept derived from the old German blitzkrieg tactics of WWII and used extensively in the latter part of that war by the Soviets and further refined for use against NATO.

Note 9: Locations provided for ground forces are the peacetime barracks positions and should be a guide to the actual wartime positioning of forces. There was a real wartime scenario where the Warsaw Pact would attack out of the barracks positions, this would only provide NATO a 24-72 hour notification (due to increased logistical and intell asset operational tempo), this would have been the nightmare scenario for NATO.

Note 10: The BRDM-3 as indicated in the OOB is the NATO designation for the BRDM-2 in an anti-tank role equipped with 5 roof mounted AT-5 Spandrel missiles and a turret mounted 14.5mm mg. The GMZ is a mine-laying vehicle and the MTK is a mine-clearing vehicle. The BTM is a ditch digger. The PMP is a pontoon bridge segment, the K-61 and GSP are ferries. The TMM is a truck with a bridge. The MT-55 is a tank with a bridge.

Note 11: In the TO&E, reference is made to BTR's, BMP's, or Tanks (unless specified). A BTR unit consists of BTR-60, BTR-70, or BTR-80 vehicles. A BMP unit consists of BMP-1 or BMP-2 (the BMP-3 was fielded in the early 90's). A Tank unit consists of T-55, T-62, T-64, T-72, or T-80 vehicles. Some NSWP regiments use the OT-64 or FUG-70. One division of the Rumanian Army is still equipped with the T-34 and SU-100.

Note 12: I have detailed information on the 8th Guards Army due to its role as the primary opponent to the US Army. The other Soviet and Warsaw Pact Army information is limited to Divisions and supporting combat arms.
