Take Active Air Defense Measures (Battlefield Function 16) as Accomplished by a Heavy Brigade with a Subordinate Air Defense Artillery Battery. Volume 2: Assessment Package.

Abstract

The purpose of the overall research program was to document the synchronization required by command and control tasks performed within the armored brigade, to include combat support and combat service support units. The immediate application of the documentation was to support developers of staff training in two related projects: Battle Staff Training System and Staff Group Trainer. The documentation was also intended to assist with the planning and execution of collective training. The documentation approach was to apply function analysis (FA) techniques for battlefield functions (BFs) in the Command and Control battlefield operating system. Thirteen FAs were developed for the brigade headquarters and four supporting units: direct support field artillery battalion, engineer battalion, forward support battalion, and air defense artillery (ADA) battery. The FAs were revised through a formative evaluation process that included internal review and successive external reviews by combat training centers, proponent agencies. and a review council representing potential users of the FAs. The final products include the FAs, a users guide, and assessment packages for the FAs. This report provides the assessment package for the supporting ADA battery.
