Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Expeditionary Maneuver Warfare (EMW) is the operational future of the Marine Corps. The ability of the Marine Corps to move substantial combat power into theater and sustain that combat power is dependent on the Maritime Prepositioning Force (MPF). However, current capabilities are not able to support the total vision of EMW. EMW places emphasis on rapid deployment with the ability to sustain forces from the sea. This requires a sea-based logistics capability and ships specifically designed to meet the needs of the expeditionary force. Currently, there are three MPS squadrons that support this mission. Each squadron is designed to support one MEB (17,000 personnel) for 30 days. The problem with the current capability is that a permissive area is required to conduct the offloading and marrying of supplies and troops. The MPF ships need a secure port facility to offload supplies, and the troops need a secure airfield to fly into. After Desert Storm, the Marine Corps implemented the MPF enhancement program, which adds one MPF ship, with improved capabilities, to each squadron. Each of the enhanced ships has a Naval fleet hospital, a Naval Mobile Construction Battalion, and expeditionary airfield capabilities. The new ships have roll on/roll off, lift on/lift off, and in-stride and in-stream capabilities. They can offload cargo either pier side or at anchor in a sea state of up to three. However, these enhancements still do not satisfy current EMW requirements. The Marine Corps vision of MPF, as outlined in MPF 2010 and beyond, lays out five pillars and three capabilities that are necessary to support several EMW concepts. The pillars of force closure (arrival and assembly at sea), indefinite sustainment (sea-based logistics), and the capability of sustained seabasing are going to require ships that are not currently in the inventory or part of the MPF enhancement program.

This book was released on 1999-02-23 with total page 110 pages. 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.

Book excerpt: "The present volume, Reposturing the Force: U.S. Overseas Presence in the Twenty-first Century, is the twenty-sixth in the Newport Papers monograph series, published since 1991 by the Naval War College Press. Its primary aim is to provide a snapshot of a process--the ongoing reconfiguration of America's foreign military "footprint" abroad--that is likely to prove of the most fundamental importance for the long-term security of the United States, yet has so far received little if any systematic attention from national security specialists and still less from the wider public. As such, it serves well the broad mission of the Newport Papers series--to provide rigorous and authoritative analysis, of a sort not readily available in the world of academic or commercial publishing, of issues of strategic salience to the U.S. Navy and the national security community generally"--Foreword.

Download or read book Expeditionary Maneuver: A Synthesis of Network Centric Concepts written by and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Expeditionary Maneuver Warfare (EMW) is a unique and appropriate concept for 21st century warfare because it is a synthesis of the best of traditional realistic warfare concepts, stable maneuver warfare doctrine, and the contemporary concepts of network centric warfare (NCW). The Marine Corps EMW concept emphasizes the realities of confusion, human factors, danger, and uncertainty to craft a concept that relies on well-trained and motivated people. The NCW concept is about how the network will provide synergy and added combat power by accomplishing tasks that formerly required standing forces. EMW is about tailored forces to accomplish a mission and using maneuver to get there. NCW is about the network helping to share resources to get the right combat capability to the right place and time. EMW on the battlefield today will rely heavily on a robust and ubiquitous network, but it will not be entirely dependent on the network. The author concludes that the two concepts are compatible articulations of modern warfare. (10 refs.).

Download or read book Naval Mine Warfare written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2001-09-19 with total page 218 pages. 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.
Download or read book Sea basing written by Robin G. Gentry and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The early 9Os began one of the most fruitful periods in the history of concept development for the U.S. Marine Corps and U.S. Navy. The naval services refocused their development efforts with the publishing of the pivotal " ... From the Sea" which has lead to the transformational concept of Sea Basing. Sea Basing is one of the tenants of the Navy's Sea Power 21 and a cornerstone of the Marine Corps Operational Maneuver from the Sea and Expeditionary Maneuver Warfare concept. Sea Basing through a combination of naval platforms provides the bridge for the American military forces between the advance force operations needed to prepare the battlespace and the war-winning or campaigning forces needed for sustained combat. Sea Basing, through a combination of technologies, will maintain afloat more command and control, fire support and logistics than ever before, thus increasing the maneuver forces flexibility and speed of action. Sea Basing provides the nation with unencumbered access to the littoral regions of the world and a higher level of force protection than has been afforded American military units in the past. The Enhanced Networked Seabase (ENSeabase) allows the American military the opportunity to self-synchronize the operations of the force while it masses off the coast. The inherent flexibility provided by ENSeabasing allows the embarked force to be used for humanitarian efforts or to conduct rapid operations before adversary antiaccess capabilities are engaged. To fully understand the transformational nature of the ENSeabasing concept and the capabilities that it will bring to the nation's military, it is important to understand the origins of the concept for both the maritime services. Additionally, it is illustrative to see after twelve years of development how the concept so effectively satisfies the requirements set out in the Quadrennial Defense Review and other transformational planning documents. The development of Sea Basing has clearly been an evolutionary process, which has provided the nation one of the most significant transformational ideas of all Service concepts.

Book excerpt: MCDP 1 WARFIGHTING Since Fleet Marine Force Manual 1, Warfighting, was first published in 1989, it has had a significant impact both inside and outside the Marine Corps. That manual has changed the way Marines think about warfare. It has caused energetic debate and has been translated into several foreign languages, issued by foreign militaries, and published commercially. It has strongly influenced the development of doctrine by our sister Services. Our current naval doctrine is based on the tenets of maneuver warfare as described in that publication. Current and emerging concepts such as operational maneuver from the sea derive their doctrinal foundation from the philosophy contained in Warfighting. Our philosophy of warfighting, as described in the manual, is in consonance with joint doctrine, contributing to our ability to operate harmoniously with the other Services.

Book Synopsis Sea Basing by : National Research Council
Download or read book Sea Basing written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2005-08-14 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The availability of land bases from which to launch and maintain military, diplomatic, and humanitarian relief operations is becoming increasingly uncertain because of physical or political constraints. The ability to operate from a sea base, therefore, is likely to become more and more important. The Defense Science Board recently concluded that Sea Basing will be a critical future joint military capability and that DOD should proceed to develop such capability. Following the DSB report, the Navy requested that the National Research Council (NRC) convene a workshop to assess the science and technology base, both inside and outside the Navy, for developing Sea Basing and to identify R&D for supporting future concepts. This report of the workshop includes an examination of Sea Basing operational concepts; ship and aircraft technology available to make Sea Basing work; and issues involved in creating the sea base as a joint system of systems.

Download or read book Command and Control for Operational Maneuver from the Sea, Where Do We Go From Here? written by and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Navy and Marine Corps are developing doctrine that will enable them to execute maneuver warfare from sea based platforms as part of a concept called "Operational Maneuver from the Sea" (OMFTS). A key part of the effort to develop this innovative doctrine involves establishing effective Command and Control (C2) organizations that will foster success on tomorrow's battlefield. Vying for consideration in future OMFTS doctrine are three different proposals for Command and Control architecture. They include use of the current doctrine as delineated in Joint Pub 3-02 (CATF/CLF); placing amphibious components under a fleet Composite Warfare Commander as a Naval Expeditionary Task Force; or establishment of "supported" and "supported" units by the Commander Joint Task Force. Each of these concepts trace their ancestry to recent periods in military history-World War II, the Cold War era, or the Post Cold War period. To some degree each one mirrors the organization, equipment, and military philosophy in use during their development. When examined and validated against the philosophical approach embodied in OMFTS, only the "supported/supporting" concept has the flexibility to work in the high tempo environment predicated by OMFTS.

Download or read book Deep Maneuver written by Jack D Kern Editor and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-10-12 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 5, Deep Maneuver: Historical Case Studies of Maneuver in Large-Scale Combat Operations, presents eleven case studies from World War II through Operation Iraqi Freedom focusing on deep maneuver in terms of time, space and purpose. Deep operations require boldness and audacity, and yet carry an element of risk of overextension - especially in light of the independent factors of geography and weather that are ever-present. As a result, the case studies address not only successes, but also failure and shortfalls that result when conducting deep operations. The final two chapters address these considerations for future Deep Maneuver.
