Only major offensive action ever planned that I know of was in '50s (with Greece and Italy) where in case of Soviet attack there would be a limited offensive into Albania in order to secure Greece connection to Italy. Italy was supposed to support naval part of operation.

Offensive actions were limited in scope, with only about 50-70 km of advance into Albania planned.

This became moot point when Albania broke with a Soviets.

Unlike previous motorize infantry orgs this had sagnificant amount of changes:

- Trucks are not attached to Rifle platoons but are held at Co HQ

- At Co HQ most of personal armed with pistols/automatic pistols previously is now armed with ARs.

Interesting. Did not know of the Albania-Italy-Greece connection. In this 1950's time period, did Yugoslavia have concerns vs Austria, Bulgaria, Hungary, or Romania?

It was estimated that any war with Bulgaria, Romania or Hungary would also involve Soviets and was considered major threat. After Soviet forces left Romania it dropped down on the list of threats and good mutual relations were established (especially after 1968) including military industry cooperation.

Austria was considered limited threat in the '50s, it's major threat was considered that Soviets might use it to bypass main Yugoslavian defenses toward Hungary.

 

 

Also relevant to a topic, due the influence it brought. In 1945-1946 Yugoslav People Army accepted following officers:

~2000 from a Royal Yugoslav Army

~2000 from Croatian Home Guard

322 from a Bulgarian Army

215 from Wehrmacht

142 from collaborationist SDS

124 from Italian army

118 from Hungarian arny

14 from British organized Yugoslav forces in the Middle East

5 from Russian Imperial army (former "Whites" that settled in Yugoslavia)

 

Only ones strictly forbidden from being recommissioned were SS, Ustasha and SDK members.

What was the impression of the M59?

 

Bad. Especially two engine setup (army would later reject BTR-60 and 70 for a same reason) and unreliable transmission, through some aspects (general layout) were liked. It was also noted as quite comfortable vehicle with a plenty of space inside. It was also a major influence on domestic M-60 APC.

1990/91 and 1993. Mechanized Company

 

 

Attempt to standardize what was practically 4 different orgs of 1985 Mechanized company. Platoons were changed to 4 vehicles in order to increase manpower and RCL armed APCs were separated in own platoon.

Starting in January 1991. one riflemen per section was changed to a sniper and all sections got additional 2 x LAW for a total of 4.

1993. org added mortar platoon to the company (4 x 82mm mortar, 21 men, 2 x truck)

Org never fully replaced 1985. orgs, until the formal end of life of M-60P APC in 2005-6., since all active units on M-60 APCs were disbanded in about 1995-96. and it was not considered worth reorganizing reserve units that were not already reorganized.
