I dont acctualy know fully how they progress via the paper work side, but i do know only the most dedicated willing and able get the position and your more likely to find the youngseters on the conventionals than the nukes, liachin was in his 40's when he was in command of kursk kurdin only gained command in his late 30's so you dont just get a command like that theres a complicated system on how its done, one that even i dont understand properly.
Conscripts will stay conscripts they wont progress, however they have the option to stay on and progress, the ones that volenteer for active duty get treated a bit better they can be trained up to NCO standard, most conscripts are not acctualy conscripts but volenteers, also warent officer equivilent only happens to those who stay in the service as enlisted for extended periods of time, and should they stay longer they could even become low ranking officers.
Applying to be officer one must have the right qualifications and back ground, must not have a criminal record and should you be of good standing then you will be accepted however your service goes from 2 years up to 5 it pays more but you do more time and its not a favorite option for many, but alot still do apply.
If your a conscript and wanting to become officer then you have to sign on for more than your quota which is 2 years and show the willing ability and have either got or willing to get the qualifications to become a low rank officer, that can take up to 8 years some times more, to go from enlisted to officer one must have the right attitude and qualifications but your more likely to be accepted if you volenteerd rather than orderd.
