Army Futures Command Concept for Brigade Combat Team Cross-Domain Maneuver 2028

Abstract

This document describes the changes necessary for BCTs to support MDO. It expands upon current maneuver and combined arms principles, describing how BCTs operate with Army echelons above brigade conducting MDO as part of the Joint Force. It describes cross-domain maneuver as the tactical application of MDO executed by the BCTs to compete and shape the security environment, deter adversaries, and, when necessary, dominate and win in armed conflict and return to competition on favorable terms. Cross-domain maneuver creates synergistic effects in the physical, temporal, virtual, and cognitive realms that increase relative combat power and provide the necessary overmatch. The approaches and capabilities described in this document will enable the BCTs to better support MDO through cross-domain maneuver.
