Corps Area Communications Support of FM 100-5 (Operations) Doctrine.

Abstract

What are the tactical communications requirements demanded by operational art (AirLand Battle) doctrine in fluid large-scale maneuver exercises? In the first part of this research paper a determination is made as to the antecedents for us falling behind in C3I employment doctrine, operational concepts, and Army Force Development so that today, our earliest estimate for recovery will be with the fielding of the Mobile Subscriber Grid System (MSGS) capability with the fifth and last corps (I Corps) in fiscal Year 1992. Chapter Two explores those Concept-Based Requirement System (CBRS) procedures mandated by Headquarters, TRADOC, which if circumvented do not lead to an orderly and evolutionary flow of materiel from the Research, Development, and Acquisition (RDA) process. Many problems of interoperability, total systems integration, lack of inter-Service cooperation, and fixation on limited number of feasible technological solutions to an operational concept can be traced to a breakdown in the CBRS at the TRADOC Center/School level.
