Methodical approach to assessing the effectiveness of the result of mobilization planning for the ammunition industry

During the years of independence, Ukraine has restored and developed its Armed Forces to ensure its sovereignty and territorial integrity. The high-quality armament of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is the key to their effective use in the event of modern armed conflicts. One of the most important components of fire destruction is ammunition, the quality, and effectiveness of which are important indicators for achieving superiority over the enemy in modern combat operations. The amount of ammunition cannot be unlimited but must be sufficient. Therefore, it is necessary to carefully plan the production and accumulation of ammunition both in peacetime and in a special period. This process is related to the process of defense planning, which is an important function of public administration.

Effective planning of the development of the countryʼs ammunition production capabilities is impossible without knowledge of the actual state of affairs for the industry, its structure, and ammunition production capacities. The ammunition industryʼs capabilities must meet the needs of the defense forces. Capacity planning of the industry for a special period is carried out in peacetime by creating an appropriate system of mobilization planning and its further effective use as part of the public administration system. The mobilization plan is the main result of the mobilization planning process for the munitions industry. The aim of the article is to develop a methodological approach to determining and evaluating the effectiveness of the result of mobilization planning for the munitions industry.
