FORCE XXI Division Design Analysis (DDA) Phases II and III Division Combat Service Support (CSS) Analysis

Abstract

In 1995, TRADOC initiated the analytical process described in the March 1995 draft Joint Venture (JV) Campaign Plan. The resulting analyses provide the basis for redesigning today's Warfighting Army for the 21st century. The Force XXI Division Design Analysis (DDA) process served as the thread of continuity for JV analyses. Division CSS analysis completed in support of the DDA process assessed the candidate CSS designs in the context of the Force XXI Division Operations Concept and compared their relative performances. Insights gleaned from DDA Division CSS Analyses address the overarching JV issue # 2: "How does the new CSS concept contribute to the effectiveness of the force? " The DDA Phases 2 and 3 insights, along with earlier insights documented in DDA Phase 1, contributed to TRAC's assessment of this issue. Insights gleaned from both DDA Phases 2 and 3 analyses were consistent in their indications. The Force XXI CSS concept appears to be feasible in all designs and across all scenarios, given the presence of CSS enablers, fully resourced corps support, and the limited duration of the scenarios examined.
