Battalion Combat Operations Center (COC) Test. Volume II. Test Report,

Abstract

The battlefield of the future will be characterized, in all likelihood, by a higher degree of complexity and a faster tempo than that experienced in past conflicts. In order to be ready for a such a taxing environment, the Marine Corps has defined a set of requirements for an automated command and control system. The system, known as MTACCS (Marine Tactical Command and Control System), will exploit the advances made in electronic technology in order to assist the Marine commander and his staff at all levels. The design and implementation of the MTACCS raises many questions. One of those questions involves the amount of automation needed at the infantry battalion level. The overall aim of the Battalion Combat Operation Center (COC) Test was to investigate how much or how little of MTACCS should be allocated to the infantry battalion. The scope of the test, however, was limited to infantry battalion offensive operations.
