Dismounted Battle Space: US Army Battle Dynamic Concept

Abstract

The changing world environment has resulted in a change in the National Military Strategy (NMS). This has lead to a new visionary concept for the Army of the Twenty-First Century, 'Future Full Dimensional Operations'. This vision incorporates the changes in threat, advances in technology, the adoption of a power projection history, influence a new doctrine--a doctrine for Full Dimensional Operations. Battlefields of the future will be characterized by fast moving forces with unprecedented lethality. Real-time information will be required to develop intelligence and synchronize the employment of forces and systems to destroy the enemy's capability to wage war. Improved sensors will find, identify and accurately locate targets in depth. Increasingly lethal weapons will engage enemy forces, operating at a much faster tempo than we have known before. They will overwhelm and destroy the enemy around the clock in all types of weather and terrain. To achieve decisive results, future Army commanders, at all echelons, must be able to apply all available combat power to dominate their battle space. The concept of battle space facilitates the type of innovative and imaginative approach to warfighting required of leaders on future battlefield. This concept is not confined by time, boundaries, graphics, countermeasures, or other physical and intellectual constraints
