About: High ground

An Entity of Type: place, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

High ground is an area of elevated terrain, which can be useful in combat. The military importance of the high ground has been recognized for over 2,000 years, citing early examples from China and other early-dynastic cultures who regularly engaged in territorial/power struggles. Later incorporated to be advantageous in architectural designs such as castles and fortresses which included towers and walls designed to provide structural advantages for positions of troops and weaponry which could be thrown or fired from above.

  • Кома́ндная высота́ (реже Кома́ндующая высота́) — в военной терминологии возвышенность (гора, холм и т. п.), по высоте господствующая над окружающей местностью, занятие (овладение) которой обеспечивает ряд преимуществ над противником в оперативно-тактическом и огневом плане. (ru)
  • 制高點是軍事用語,指地形或環境上的某一部分比周圍高而有利於戰術的施展,例如山頂、塔樓天臺等。 從高打低的好处有:己方人員投射武器或彈藥(矛、石頭、子彈等)可以投得比較遠;指揮員站得高看得遠、視野寬,方便戰術調動;對方人員或車輛行動費力而不方便。 很陡的、多岩石的地形,例如山麓,可以阻擋對方的騎兵、戰象、坦克或裝甲運兵車。例如在蘇聯-阿富汗戰爭裏,阿富汗遊擊隊佔據山區,就不容易受到蘇聯機動化部隊的攻擊。這迫使蘇聯部隊得倚靠直升機從空中攻擊,但直升機會成為美國提供的FIM-92刺針地對空導彈目標。在高地勢和地對空導彈的保護下,阿富汗遊擊隊不易覆沒。另一個例子是1423年在波希米亞的。士兵搶佔高地,逼騎兵下馬和他們打,也减弱他們的火炮。塔博爾派兵最後一衝下山殲滅了聖杯派餘部。 但是高地不一定绝对有利。中國的三國時代,街亭一戰,蜀軍占領山頂,卻反被魏軍在山下面包圍。魏軍切斷了他們的供水和援军,最後導致蜀軍大敗,而北伐首役也就到此為止。 (zh)
