Achieving Deterrence Through Expeditionary Advanced Base Operations in the USINDOPACOM Area of Responsibility

Abstract

Expeditionary advanced base operations present a complex problem and complicate China's decision-making calculus. This complexity enables the Marine Corps to contribute to the Navy and Joint Force's ability to maintain assured access to the region. However, stand-in forces within the weapons engagement zone will be challenged to remain undetected and targeted. The Joint Force lacks a responsive and viable deterrence option to prevent a China-Taiwan forceful reunification.
