The Multirole Force: A Combat Multiplier

Abstract

Multiple forces provide commanders at all levels a force multiplier with which they can more effectively prosecute campaigns. A survey of U.S. arsenal reveals a multitude of weapons and forces that have multi mission capabilities. Operational staffs need to be fully aware of the allocated forces' roles to more effectively employ them. Although impossible to address all systems or forces, the unified commanders need to reiterate the requirement to use bold and innovative forethought in planning and training these multirole forces.
