Historiography of the formation of preadaptivity of military university cadets

the urgency of improving the system of training cadets for professional activity is of particular importance in the context of modern geopolitical challenges and historical events. The growing instability in the international arena, including conflicts, hybrid threats and the improvement of military strategies, requires future defenders of the Fatherland not only to possess impeccable military professional skills, but also to develop tactical thinking, the ability to analyze possible risks and make decisions in conditions of uncertainty. These requirements make the process of studying at military universities a key element of ensuring national security. All this caused special attention to the formation of the preadaptivity of military university cadets – the cadet's ability to unpredictably change himself in a critical and emergency situation, allowing him to activate mechanisms for changing functions, overcome the changed conditions of the situation and fully implement military professional skills. However, the question of how this ability is formed and what factors influence it is still open. Consideration of the historiography of the formation of preadaptivity of military university cadets allows for a deeper and more detailed study of this phenomenon. Therefore, the purpose of the study is a systematic analysis of the historical experience of the formation of preadaptivity of future officers. According to the results of the study, the author concludes that there has not been a comprehensive study and holistic consideration of this problem in military pedagogy. The prospect of developing this research will allow us to further develop an integrated training system for future officers, combining historical experience with current modern requirements, which will allow us to train highly qualified officers who are able to effectively perform their tasks in any conditions.
