Operation Barbarossa document.
The main objective of plan Barbarrosa is to defeat Russia before begining the war on England. The basis of the plan was the idea of split the front of the main forces of the Russian army concentrated in the western part of the country, fast and deep thrusts of powerful mobile groups north and south of the Pripet Marshes and using this breakthrough destroy disparate groups of enemy troops. Barbarrosa plan was designed by Hitler. He did not study in detail Barbarrosa plan, which was one of the reasons of its failure. One of the main reasons for the failure of Barbarossa was incorrect estimation troops red army Germans accurately calculated the amount and composition of the "red army", but the assessment of armored troops was made incorrectly. No less important was the mistake of the German intelligence in assessing capacity for mobilization of the Soviet Army. All these details together, led to the failure of Barbarossa, and then to Germany's defeat in World War II.
The plan failure led to battle of Moscow. In the German history is more knows as operation Typhoon. . In fall 1941 the German army pushed to Moscow. It was the most important and one of the most decisive battles of WWII.
