Dynamically changing reality requires reconsidering the problem of tactical operations' structure. Therefore, the article suggests and justifies some solutions not resulting from the fact that the present division has been wrong but that the reality (situation) has changed so much that it requires a different approach to the problem. As a starting point while classifying forces’ operations, there are assumed stages in which a state may function which include before the conflict stage, conflict and post-conflict phase. Thus it seems justified to introduce such notions as peace support operations, combat operations and stabilization operations which are characterized by, among others, the necessity to combine and choose selectively these kind of operations which will be effective in a given situation. However, it is difficult to close the set which is called tactical operations. This difficulty involves mainly its complexity. In peace support operations the opposing forces and the enemy in combat are clearly defined, whereas how to name situations when the enemy (opponent) is not clearly defined, not uniformed, who looks as any other citizen of the country with only one difference that an explosive device is attached under his clothes. New rules and regulations of land forces operations have been binding since January 2009. Apart from numerous changes in the tactical operations area published in this document, a new tactical operations’ structure is introduced. Analysing the provisions of the new regulations, some issues are disputable. Symmetric operations are treated slightly differently there as they are defined as “primary operations”. Moreover, intermediate stages are differentiated within complementary combat operations.

Osiągnięcia techniczne XXI wieku wymuszają na wojskach lądowych przewartościowania koncepcji i zasad prowadzenia działań taktycznych. Konieczne jest zreorganizowanie istniejących struktur wojsk lądowych, tak by mogły one podejmować nowe wyzwania i zapewniały właściwe wykonywanie zadań. Autorzy omawiają, w jaki sposób zmiany wynikające z postępu naukowo-technicznego odzwierciedlają się w strukturach organizacyjnych wojsk lądowych przyjmowanych do prowadzenia zasadniczych działań taktycznych.

Due to its geopolitical situation, Poland functions in the particular environment implying constraints which can be more or less accurately forecasted. The responsibility of those who have the state security at heart must aim at building mechanisms able to detect the chances and mechanisms limiting the threats in the future. As in any system, also in the state the most important element are people, that is the society. In this context, in order to prepare this society, in the best possible way, to new situations, it seems appropriate to forecast possibly the most accurately the challenges and threats it faces. The hostile elements existing in the environment, with their new destructive capabilities, also in the virtual reality, force us to attentively analyse motives and strategies of their activity in order not to allow for the situations threatening our national interests.
