Abstract
Today, the evolution of methods of warfare and the development of weapons add to the need of increasing defense methods, including attention to the requirements of passive defense in order to increase the defense power of combat units. Therefore, this study was conducted with the aim of comparative study of combat garrisons stationed in the northeastern regional of ground force from the perspective of passive defense. Considering the location of some units of this base in the border provinces, having major forces and military resources and the special importance of these units, observing the requirements of passive defense, will have a significant impact on increasing their defense power. Therefore, in this descriptive-analytical study, the importance of 10 passive defense indices selected by library studies was compared by 20 military experts in the Likert spectrum and then evaluated by Macbeth technique, due to protective consideration, they have been analyzed by coding. The results of this technique emphasize the importance of scatter and camouflage indices more than other indices. The application of these criteria, considering their coefficient of importance in the Prometheus method, showed that the 37 M Brigade is in a very good position in terms of observing passive defense indicators. 15 Sh and 27 Q brigades are also acceptable. But the brigades of 25 ch, 17 T, 38 T and 23 G are facing a crisis in terms of passive defense.
