A Review of Strategic Mobility Models and Analysis
Abstract
The U.S. military doctrine adheres to a strategy of forward defense and flexible response. One basic premise of the U.S. global strategy is to defend the nation by fighting our foes on foreign soil. To accomplish this objective, the United States relies on its strategic mobility system to deploy and sustain military forces worldwide. To provide airlift and sealift assets to move large numbers of personnel, equipment, and support materiel from the continental United States (CONUS) to foreign locations, the U.S. military either procures and operates such assets or enters into agreements with commercial organizations to provide them.
