Download or read book Naval Expeditionary Warfare Vision 2010 written by Department Navy and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-02-18 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: U.S. strategic interests include global security; prosperity; broad respect for universal values; and an international order that promotes cooperative action. Naval expeditionary forces are at the forefront of our national responses to ongoing international conflicts; moreover, they play a vital role in advancing these strategic interests confronting irregular challenges to prevent potential future conflicts. These conflicts and irregular challenges are caused primarily by instability and insecurity, which constitute pervasive threats to the nation's interests. As articulated by our military's senior leadership, these threats, and the corresponding call for our military forces, specifically expeditionary forces, are expected to continue and will likely increase in the future. Naval Expeditionary Warfare Vision 2010 promotes an increased awareness of expeditionary programs and forces, and the way they are supporting the Maritime Strategy. This document continues the description of expanded naval expeditionary capabilities initiated in the 2008 Naval Expeditionary Warfare Plan. It includes Naval Special Warfare; Mine Warfare; Amphibious Warfare; Navy Expeditionary Combat; and Seabasing Integration programs for which the Navy's Expeditionary Warfare Division (N85) provides resource sponsorship and/or has current or future requirements oversight. While addressing programs supporting amphibious capabilities of the Navy - Marine Corps team, it also addresses a wide spectrum of expeditionary capabilities that are similarly important to our nation. This edition of the Naval Expeditionary Warfare Plan will follow the format of its predecessors; it will describe expeditionary warfare assets and programs, and their uses in current expeditionary operations worldwide. The objectives of this publication are to: Promote an increased awareness of current and future expeditionary warfare capabilities and to stimulate discussion amongst the target audience; Show how expeditionary forces support the Maritime Strategy and combatant commanders' (CCDRs') requirements by being forward deployed and rapidly deployable to influence events on a global scale; Describe expeditionary forces and recent expeditionary operations.

Download or read book Naval Power and Expeditionary Wars written by Bruce A. Elleman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-12-09 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the nature and character of naval expeditionary warfare, in particular in peripheral campaigns, and the contribution of such campaigns to the achievement of strategic victory. Naval powers, which can lack the massive ground forces to win in the main theatre, often choose a secondary theatre accessible to them by sea and difficult for their enemies to reach by land, giving the sea power and its expeditionary forces the advantage. The technical term for these theatres is ‘peripheral operations.’ The subject of peripheral campaigns in naval expeditionary warfare is central to the British, the US, and the Australian way of war in the past and in the future. All three are reluctant to engage large land forces because of the high human and economic costs. Instead, they rely as much as possible on sea and air power, and the latter is most often in the form of carrier-based aviation. In order to exert pressure on their enemies, they have often opened additional theaters in on-going, regional, and civil wars. This book contains thirteen case studies by some of the foremost naval historians from the United States, Great Britain, and Australia whose collected case studies examine the most important peripheral operations of the last two centuries. This book will be of much interest to students of naval warfare, military history, strategic studies and security studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sea mines have been important in naval warfare throughout history and continue to be so today. They have caused major damage to naval forces, slowed or stopped naval actions and commercial shipping, and forced the alteration of strategic and tactical plans. The threat posed by sea mines continues, and is increasing, in today's world of inexpensive advanced electronics, nanotechnology, and multiple potential enemies, some of which are difficult to identify. This report assesses the Department of the Navy's capabilities for conducting naval mining and countermining sea operations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the request of the Chief of Naval Operations, the National Research Council (NRC) conducted a study to determine the technological requirements, operational changes, and combat service support structure necessary to land and support forces ashore under the newly evolving Navy and Marine Corps doctrine. The Committee on Naval Expeditionary Logistics, operating under the auspices of the NRC's Naval Studies Board, was appointed to (1) evaluate the packaging, sealift, and distribution network and identify critical nodes and operations that affect timely insertion of fuels, ammunition, water, medical supplies, food, vehicles, and maintenance parts and tool blocks; (2) determine specific changes required to relieve these critical nodes and support forces ashore, from assault through follow-on echelonment; and (3) present implementable changes to existing support systems, and suggest the development of innovative new systems and technologies to land and sustain dispersed units from the shoreline to 200 miles inland. In the course of its study, the committee soon learned that development of OMFTS is not yet at a stage to allow, directly, detailed answers to many of these questions. As a result, the committee addressed the questions in terms of the major logistics functions of force deployment, force sustainment, and force medical support, and the fundamental logistics issues related to each of these functions.

This book was released on 2006-05-26 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Navy has put forth a new construct for its strike forces that enables more effective forward deterrence and rapid response. A key aspect of this construct is the need for flexible, adaptive command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (C4ISR) systems. To assist development of this capability, the Navy asked the NRC to examine C4ISR for carrier, expeditionary, and strike and missile defense strike groups, and for expeditionary strike forces. This report provides an assessment of C4ISR capabilities for each type of strike group; recommendations for C4ISR architecture for use in major combat operations; promising technology trends; and an examination of organizational improvements that can enable the recommended architecture.

This book was released on 2004-12-08 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department of Defense is in the process of transforming the nation's armed forces to meet the military challenges of the 21st century. Currently, the opportunity exists to carry out experiments at individual and joint service levels to facilitate this transformation. Experimentation, which involves a spectrum of activities including analyses, war games, modeling and simulation, small focused experiments, and large field events among other things, provides the means to enhance naval and joint force development. To assist the Navy in this effort, the Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) asked the National Research Council (NRC) to conduct a study to examine the role of experimentation in building future naval forces to operate in the joint environment. The NRC formed the Committee for the Role of Experimentation in Building Future Naval Forces to perform the study.

Download or read book Naval Coastal Warfare Operations from 2000 to Operation Iraqi Freedom and the Deficiencies That Prompted Their Addition to the Naval Expeditionary Combat Command written by Curtis M. Lesher and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-09-16 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last decade the importance of Naval Coastal Warfare (NCW) to the United States Navy as a viable asset in the war on terror and conflicts in the Middle East is on the rise. Because the Navy's focus during the decades between the Vietnam War and the attack on the USS Cole was primarily on the former Soviet threat, shallow water forces were considered low priority. As a result NCW became a low priority force manned primarily by reservists. From the year 2000 through Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF), NCW has operated with deficiencies in manpower, weapons, ammunition, vehicles, communications and training. NCW units have participated in many overseas exercises prior to OIF. During these exercises the threat of rear area attacks from terrorist groups became a major concern for all U.S. forces. In assessing the threat NCW found that not only was the threat to U.S. ships in the ports they were protecting more at risk, but that their own lodging sites and personnel in transit to duty stations were very vulnerable to attack. By the time OIF was underway NCW had not addressed most of the deficiencies they had seen during previous exercises and now they would be asked to perform missions that had never been attempted by NCW units before. Force protection missions at Kuwaiti and Iraqi ports along with a vital mission at the Iraqi oil platforms would need to succeed regardless of the problems encountered by the NCW units. The reader will see that there are four main deficiencies that NCW needs to solve. 1) Manning that is inadequate, untrained and unsuited to rapid deployment because it is mainly a reserve force. 2) Inadequate amounts and types of equipment. 3) Communications systems that do not allow communications between all units in theater. 4) NCW units are low priority when it comes to funding. Very little unclassified historical information or lessons learned is available, so a brief historical account of Naval Coastal Warfare Group One units during a few routine exercises and OIF will demonstrate their deficiencies as well as provide a historical record that is long overdue. The reader will also see the transition of NCW as it changes from a small configuration in early 2000 to a larger more viable configuration in the Maritime Expeditionary Security Force which is a component of Naval Expeditionary Combat Command (NECC). With the creation of the NECC and the inclusion of NCW forces under its umbrella, many of the deficiencies have potentially been eliminated. Since very little published historical information on NCW exists, portions of the information contained within this monograph are taken from recent interviews, transcripts of interviews with NCW personnel conducted during the summer of 2003, my own experiences and my personal journal entries recorded during actual operations. Published sources of information include articles from professional journals, periodicals, monographs and analysis papers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The end of the Cold War has ushered in a period in which Western military forces have engaged primarily in expeditionary operations. These have turned out to be much more complex politically than first thought and have required naval planners to focus on delivering effects from the sea rather than at sea. Accordingly, navies around the world are going through a time of transition and transformation in which questions are being asked about their priorities, the relative importance of their contributions to joint and combined campaigns, and how these best might be provided. Because of the understandably widespread fixation on the war-fighting phase of the expeditionary operation, current conceptions of the naval contribution, even in the United States, do not pay sufficient regard to the less obvious aspects of the naval contribution to campaigns which mostly are by their nature maritime. It is easy, for example, to neglect the importance of the diplomatic activity which acts as a kind of beforeand- after-sales service to the main war-fighting event. Naval diplomacy, of course, may reduce the necessity for high-intensity expeditionary operations in the first place. But even when it does not, a naval diplomatic campaign to win friends and influence people and to deter potential malefactors should be designed to create the optimum political context within which the expeditionary campaign may be fought. The same can be said for the naval effort to assure maritime security by maintaining good order at sea against those that threaten it (such as waterborne terrorists, pirates, smugglers, arms suppliers, and the like). Even navies with their institutional and budgetary priorities for the requirements of high-intensity capabilities have a tendency to neglect these less visible low intensity tasks that often are crucial to the winning and, as important, the sustaining of victory in the land campaign. While the U.S. Navy may be taking the lead in developing capabilities of direct value to the prosecution of expeditionary operations, many other navies are doing so as well, if on a smaller and less ambitious scale, although this widespread effort may be predicated on assumptions about "an expeditionary future" which, in the end, may not be obtained. There are three maritime requirements of expeditionary warfare. First is the capacity to maintain sea control on the open ocean and in the littorals to protect the force and enable it to engage in missions against the land. Second is the projection of power ashore, and third is the provision of sea-based logistical support for maritime forces at sea and land forces ashore. These are interrelated in complex ways and should not be considered as separate and discrete. The maintenance of sea control raises issues about the difference and relative priority between operations in the littoral and on the open ocean, and provides a set of significant technological challenges to today's naval planners and force developers. The effectiveness of the response of these planners to these sometimes novel challenges will have significant implications for those involved in the land campaign because of their military and political reliance on high degrees of sea control. Political constraints of the sort revealed in the Iraq war of 2003 also have emphasized the advantages of maritime power projection.

Book excerpt: "Navy Expeditionary Logistics Support Group (NAVELSG) is a key enabler of amphibious warfare via its ability to offload equipment and supplies aboard forward deployed Maritime Prepositioning Ships supporting Marine Expeditionary Battalions. With approximately 84 percent of its personnel being reservists, NAVELSG struggles to retain a trained reserve enlisted manpower force needed to maintain readiness. NAVELSG's readiness challenge stems from the absence of a manpower construct suited to train, develop, and assign Sailors ready to serve in NAVELSG's reserve units. Using a holistic approach, this research explored the establishment of the first Navy expeditionary cargo handling units, NAVELSG's unit organization, enlisted training requirements and Navy manpower constructs. The research also conducted interviews with NAVELSG staff members. This paper employed a problem/solution framework to evaluate alternatives to existing Navy manpower policy to better support NAVELSG's manpower needs. An analysis of four alternatives yielded two favorable solutions that call for the creation of a new rating (occupational specialty) that is unique to the Navy reserves. The establishment of a Boatswain's Mate Expeditionary (BME) service rating is recommended for the solution's ability to address the readiness issue, provide a training pipeline that is manageable in scope, and benefits Sailors with an alignment of their rating, duties, and training."--Abstract.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reviewing the past, present, and future contribution of maritime forces to the conduct of expeditionary operations, the author concludes that the importance of this contribution is growing. He considers the diplomatic and "good order" roles of maritime forces which enable such operations in the first place. He reviews contemporary naval thinking about the nature and the relevance of sea control, and examines changes in the way maritime power may be projected ashore. Finally, the author analyses the extent to which future sea-basing can enable expeditionary forces can meet the challenges of the 21st century. Using past and recent experience, he demonstrates how important maritime outcomes are to the achievement and, equally important, the consolidation of victories ashore. Accordingly, navies around the world are having to adjust their plans and their priorities in order to meet these challenges.

This book was released on with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The NATO Alliance deterred Soviet aggression towards Western Europe by maintaining a large ground force of several corps supported by numerous air armadas. Success lay partly on vigilance and partly on the large heavy mechanized and armored divisions, which were suited for intensive combat in Central Europe. That era has passed, unlikely to be replicated again. To its credit, the Alliance recognized this change and began adapting almost immediately. In this monograph, Dr. Andrew Dorman briefly examines the European response to the changing security environment and the opportunities presented by the European Security and Defense Policy Expeditionary Force. As he correctly observes, the establishment of a European expeditionary force will be no easy matter, will require substantial investment, and will take years to complete. However, it is the right course for Europe to take. The European Union (EU) cannot manage emerging security issues using Cold War legacy forces because they are too ponderous to deploy. A lighter, more nimble expeditionary force is critical to EU policy.
