The Joint Sea Base: Transforming and Shaping the Theater

Abstract

The Joint Sea Base has significant capabilities to accomplish the TSCP mission and is poised to take a substantial role in shaping the Theater for the Combatant Commander. The JSB provides the capability and access to emerging areas where a US presence is needed, but large US footprints ashore are prohibited. With the realignment of US forces resulting in fewer personnel and facilities overseas, the role of the JSB in conducting the TSC mission will increase. The JSB can serve as a valuable transformation tool meeting the needs that result from diminished resources attributed to global basing realignment. With the procurement of additional platforms to support the JSB and the full integration of the joint force, the effectiveness of the JSB in shaping the theater will increase. The end result is the JSB emerging as a capability that enables the Combatant Commanders to conduct the TSC mission in the days ahead.
