Abstract
This report documents research and analysis conducted as part of a project entitled Army Fires for Army 2025, sponsored by the Field Artillery School at Fort Sill, Oklahoma (a part of the U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command). The purpose of this project was to provide an independent assessment of the fires capabilities the Army will need, from the brigade combat team-level to echelons above division, in future conventional combined arms maneuver operations in the 2025 and beyond timeframe, and determine options for meeting these fires requirements from both organic Army as well as joint systems. The assessment includes direct support, long-range strike, counterfire, the associated target acquisition requirements, and mission command issues. The majority of the research for this project was conducted in 20162017. The document then went through a lengthy security review that was completed in August 2019, when it was determined that there port could be released to the public.
