CAF Artillery Units on the Southern Battlefield
No full textRepublika Hrvatska bila je uvučena u ratni sukob agresijom JNA i njenim podržavanjem
srpske pobune protiv ustavno-pravnog poretka. To ju je primoralo na ubrzan ustroj oružanih
snaga s ciljem obrane vlastitog suvereniteta. U tom sukobu (Domovinski rat) sudjelovale su sve
sastavnice OS RH. Ovaj završni rad donosi analizu djelovanja topništva u nizu taktičko-napadnih
bojeva (Zima 94, Skok 1, Skok 2, Ljeto 95) koji su prethodili pobjedničkoj VRO Oluja kojom je
omogućen završetak Domovinskog rata kroz konačnu Mirnu reintegraciju hrvatskog Podunavlja.
Analiza je pružena kroz pregled tijeka gore navedenih operacija s naglaskom na ulogu topništva,
a na temelju toga iznesene su naučene lekcije, te prijedlozi uloge i zadaća topništva u budućnosti.The Republic of Croatia was drawn into the war conflict by the aggression of the JNA
and its support of the Serbian rebellion against the constitutional and legal order. This forced it to
accelerate the formation of the armed forces in order to defend its own sovereignty. All
components of the Croatian Armed Forces took part in this conflict (Homeland War). This final
paper analyzes the artillery in a series of tactical and offensive battles (Winter 94, Jump 1, Jump
2, Summer 95) that preceded the victorious MPO Storm, which enabled the end of the Homeland
War through the final peaceful reintegration of the Croatian Danube region. The analysis was
provided through an overview of the course of the above operations with an emphasis on the role
of artillery, and based on that, lessons learned, and proposals for the role and tasks of artillery in
the future

The Role of CAF in Crisis Management
No full textOružane snage Republike Hrvatske imaju veliku ulogu u kriznim stanjima nastalim kao
posljedica prirodnih ili antropogenih katastrofa, od kojih postoji rizik u većoj ili manjoj mjeri za
Republiku Hrvatsku. Zakonski okvir, koji uključuje strategije, zakone, poslovnike i planove,
donosi tri misije OSRH te im daje pravnu podlogu za sudjelovanje u kriznim stanjima. Treći dio
misije OSRH odnosi se na potporu civilnim institucijama u kriznim stanjima i upravo to je
interesno područje ovog završnog rada kroz koji će biti opisane faze upravljanja krizom
uzrokovanom katastrofama te uloga OSRH u upravljanju krizama kroz civilno-vojnu suradnju.
Na koncu će biti izdvojene naučene lekcije i predložena njihova implementacija u postojeće
standardne operativne postupke.The Armed Forces of the Republic of Croatia have a major role to play in crisis situations
resulting from natural or anthropogenic disasters, of which there is a risk to a greater or lesser
extent for the Republic of Croatia. The legal framework, which includes strategies, laws, rules of
procedure and plans, provides for three CAF missions and provides them with a legal basis for
participating in crisis situations. The third part of the CAF mission is to support civilian
institutions in crisis situations and this is the area of interest of this final paper which will
describe the phases of disaster management and the role of the CAF in crisis management
through civil-military cooperation. Finally, the lessons learned will be highlighted and their
implementation in existing standard operating procedures will be proposed
Parameters of Explosive Formed Projectiles
No full textKroz ovaj rad prikazani su tipovi i vrste eksplozivnih tvari, procesi koji su vezani uz njih te razna
područja primjene. Prikazati će se o vojna primjena kumulativnih naboja, poglavito eksplozivno
formiranim projektilima i utjecajnim čimbenicima učinka djelovanja projektila. Budući da se
kumulativni naboji u svim oblicima koriste u području obrane, poznavanje karakteristika,
sposobnosti djelovanja i mogućnost primjene pojedinih izvedbi je od osobite važnosti kako u
kontekstu teoretske analize djelovanja tako i u praktičnoj primjeni.
Na osnovi rezultata ispitivanja objašnjeno je kako pravilan izbor čimbenika može rezultirati
optimalno konstruiranim eksplozivno formiranim projektilom.
Cilj ovoga rada potvrđivanje formiranje i djelovanje projektila prema Hopkinsonovom i Misznay
– Shardinovom efektu. Kako bi se mogla provesti ova studija učinkovitosti djelovanja provedeno
je šest praktičnih ispitivanja na terenskom poligonu RGNF-a Ljubeščica.Through this scientific research work, the types and kinds of explosive substances, the processes
related to them and various areas of application are presented. We will talk about the military
application of cumulative charges, especially explosively formed projectiles and the influential
factors of the effect of projectile. Since shaped charges in all forms are used in the field of
defense, knowledge of the characteristics, performance and the possibility of applying individual
types of charges is of particular importance both in the context of theoretical analysis of
projectile performance and in the practical application itself.
Based on the test results, the interdependencies of individual shaped charge factors were
determined and it was explained how the correct choice of factors can result in an optimally
constructed explosively formed projectile.
The aim of this paper is to find the optimal parameters necessary to achieve the desired effect
and performance of the explosively formed projectile, and to confirm the formation and action of
the projectile according to the Hopkinson and Misznay - Shardin effect. In order to be able to
conduct this performance study, six practical tests were conducted on the test field site of RGNF

Development of Chemical-Biological-Radiological-Nuclear (CBRN) Laboratory Capabilities in accordance with NATO Capability Targets E 6218 N: CBRN Specialized
No full textVojne sposobnosti predstavljaju temelj za izgradnju i razvoj oružanih snaga čiji je krajnji cilj
pružanje odgovarajućeg odgovora na operacijske izazove. Vojne sposobnosti u okviru KBRN
obrane podijeljene su na opće i specijalističke sposobnosti. Razvoj KBRN specijalističkih
sposobnosti detaljno je propisan u dokument Cilj sposobnosti te zahtijeva implementaciju
suvremenih tehnologija kako bi se poduzele potrebne KBRN mjere. Međutim, sve KBRN mjere
ovise o laboratorijskim sposobnostima koje jedine mogu omogućiti potrebnu nedvojbenu
identifikaciju. Stupanj nedvojbene identifikacije postiže se uporabom suvremenih metoda
detekcije, identifikacije i kvantifikacije cijelog spektra KBRN agensa u vojnim akreditiranim
laboratorijima. Budući da se današnje KBRN prijetnje temelje na korištenju suvrmeneih
tehnologija, metode detekcije, identifikacije i kvantifikacije moraju iskoristiti takve potencijale u
svrhu obrane. Pritom je bitno uspostaviti komplementarnost i uvezanost vojnog akreditiranog
laboratorija sa civilnim instituacijama i njihovim sposobnostima. Time se izbjegava mogućnost
razvoja dvostrukih sposobnosti, a postiže se interoperabilnost i zajedničko djelovanje.Military capabilities are the foundation for building and developing armed forces whose ultimate
goal is to provide an appropriate response to operational challenges. Military capabilities within
the CBRN defense are divided into general and specialist capabilities. The development of
CBRN specialist capabilities is detailed in the document Capability Target and requires the
implementation of modern technologies in order to take the necessary CBRN measures.
However, all CBRN measures depend on laboratory capabilities that can allow the necessary
unambiguous identification. The degree of unambiguous identification is achieved by using
modern methods of detection, identification, and quantification of the entire spectrum of CBRN
agents in military accredited laboratories. Since today's CBRN threats are based on the use of
modern technologies, methods of detection, identification, and quantification must use such
potentials for defense purposes. In doing so, it is important to establish the complementarity and
interconnection of the military accredited laboratory with civilian institutions and their
capabilities. This avoids the possibility of developing dual capabilities and achieves
interoperability and joint action
Correction and Transfer of Fire
No full textU ovom radu prikazani su instrumenti kojima se koristi desetina za rukovanje vatrom i desetina
za upravljanje vatrom. Opisani su postupci kojima se koriste motritelji za određivanje elemenata
u tijeku gađanja i koje se prema središtu za upravljanje vatrom šalje u obliku poziva za vatru.
Prikazan je postupak kojim se provodi korekcija vatre, naravno, ukoliko ju je potrebno provesti.
Također, opisan je i postupak prijenosa vatre, a dan je i matematički opis korekcije i prijenosa
vatre. Matematički opis temelji se na osnovnim trigonometrijskim funkcijama: sinusu, kosinusu,
tangensu i kotangensu. Na temelju tih matematičkih izvoda napravljeni su prijedlozi obrasca za
korekciju vatre i obrasca za prijenos vatre.This paper presents instruments that front observers and squad for fire control uses. There is
given a description of the procedures used by observers to determine the elements during firing,
which are sent to the fire control center in the form of a call for fire. The procedure by which the
fire correction is carried out is presented, of course, if it is necessary to carry it out. Also, the fire
transfer procedure is described. A mathematical description of the correction and transmission of
fire is also given. The mathematical description is based on the basic trigonometric functions:
sine, cosine, tangent, and cotangent. Based on these mathematical derivations, proposals for a
fire correction form and a fire transfer form were made
FOREIGN POLITICS OF RUSSIA AFTER 2000.
No full textRad se bavi ruskom vanjskom politikom i njenom utjecaju na svjetski poredak. Ističu se
ključni događaji, ideje, akteri i odnosi koji su oblikovali rusku vanjsku politiku s posebnim
naglaskom na moderno doba. Realizam je teorijski okvir kroz koji se analizira i percipira rusko
političko djelovanje.
Kraj Hladnog rata i dolazak Vladimira Putina na vlast mogu se smatrati nekim od
ključnih događaja za formaciju Rusije u periodu nakon raspada Saveza Sovjetskih Socijalističkih
Republika (SSSR-a). Nasljeđe SSSR-a Rusija u velikoj većini preuzima, što ostavlja bitan utisak
na formaciju odnosa s drugim političkim akterima, kao i na definiranje ruskih interesa u
novonastaloj situaciji. Percepcija o zapadnim nastojanjima širenja Organizacije
Sjevernoatlantskog ugovora (NATO) također oblikuje rusko vanjskopolitičko djelovanje.
Rad će kroz analizu ruskih intervencija na raznim kontinentima (Afrika, Azija, Europa) i
u raznim državama (Srednjoafrička Republika, Sirija, Ukrajina) nastojati istaknuti interese i
zakonitosti koje su prisutne u ruskom vanjskopolitičkom djelovanju, a na kraju i dati viđenje
kako se ono mijenja ili ostaje konzistentno kroz 21. stoljeće.This paper considers Russian foreign policy and its impact on the world political order as
a whole. It points out the key actors, events, ideas and relations which shaped Russian foreign
policy with a particular emphasis on the modern era. Realism is the theory used when viewing
and interpreting Russian foreign policy.
The end of the Cold War and the rise to power of Vladimir Putin could be considered
some of the key events for the formation of the Russian state in the period after the fall of the
Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR). To a great extent, Russia inherits the legacy of the
USSR, which leaves an important mark on the formation of relations with the other political
actors, as well as the defining of Russian interests in the newly formed situation. The perception
of the expansion of NATO also impacts the goals of Russian foreign policy.
The paper will analyse Russian interventions on a number of continents (Africa, Asia,
Europe) and in a number of countries (Central African Republic, Syria, Ukraine) and through
that analysis, will endeavour to detect and point out Russian interests and modus operandi, as
well determine the consistency of its foreign policy during the 21st century

Croatian Security and Intelligence System from the Dissolution of SFRY to Present Day
No full textDiplomski rad pod nazivom Razvoj hrvatskog obavještajnog sustava od raspada
Socijalističke Federativne Republike Jugoslavije do danas opisuje kronološki tijek razvoja
sigurnosno-obavještajnog sustava Republike Hrvatske, zakonske akte te nadzorna i savjetodavna
tijela koja prate i usmjeravaju rad sigurnosno-obavještajnih službi. Radi lakšeg razumijevanja
kronologije događaja i razvojnog puta sustava, većina poglavlja su podijeljena na manje
tematske cjeline – potpoglavlja. Nakon Sažetka i Uvoda dan je kratak uvid u razumijevanje
obavještajnog sustava općenito te pojmove vezano uz njega. Budući da hrvatski obavještajni
sustav započinje u vremenima demokratskih promjena i društvenih previranja početkom
devedesetih godina prošlog stoljeća, treće i četvrto poglavlje nam objašnjava kako je obavještajni
sustav izgledao u Jugoslaviji te koje su se političke i društvene promjene odvijale tih godina.
Sljedeće poglavlje je koncentrirano na nastanak Republike Hrvatske i hrvatskog obavještajnog
sustava. Šesto, sedmo i osmo poglavlje opisuju tri reorganizacije kroz koje je sustav prošao u
svojoj povijesti postojanja. Deveto poglavlje objašnjava tri osnovna obavještajna modela u
svijetu (britanski, američki i sovjetski) te ih uspoređuje s hrvatskim modelom. Na kraju rada
nalazi se Zaključak i Literatura.The master's thesis entitled Development of the Croatian Intelligence System since the
collapse of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia to the present day describes the
chronological course of development of the security and intelligencesystem of the Republic of
Croatia, legal acts and supervisory and advisory bodies that monitor and direct the work of the
security and intelligence services. To facilitate the understanding of the chronology of events and
development of the system, most chapters are divided into smaller thematic units – sub-chapters.
After the Summary and Introduction, a brief indight is given into the undarstanding of the
intelligence system in general and the concepts related to it. Since the Croatian intelligence
system begins developing in times of democratic change and social turmoil in the eraly 1990s,
chapter three and four explain what the intelligence system looked like in Yugoslavia and what
political and social changes took place in those years. The next chapter is concentrated on the
emergence of the Republic of Croatia and the Croatian intelligence system. The sixth, seventh
and eighth chapters describe three reorganizations the system has undergone through in its
history of existence. Chapter nine explains the three basic intelligence model sin the world
(British, American and Soviet) and compares them to the Croatian model. At the end of the
master's thesis is a Conclusion and Literature
