Book excerpt: The Army Equipment Modernization Plan 2014 describes the Army Research, Development, and Acquisition (RDA) for ten capability portfolio areas and the Science and Technology portion of Fiscal Year 2014 (FY 14) President's Budget Request. The plan breaks down the RDA investments into ten capability portfolio areas, highlights the portfolio accomplishments over the last two years and provides intent for FY 14 investments as well as the way ahead. Dollars and quantities in this document do not reflect sequestration impacts. In addition to capability portfolio investment strategies, the plan links RDA investments to Army Strategy and discusses specific modernization priorities and objectives, priority materiel programs, the Army's Science and Technology program, equipment fielding and distribution. The Soldier and Squad are the foundation of our Army. Army equipment modernization builds from the Soldier out, equipping our Squads for tactical overmatch in all situations, connected to an integrated network, and operating in vehicles that improve mobility and lethality while preserving survivability. The objective of Army equipment modernization is to develop and field versatile and tailorable equipment that is affordable, sustainable, cost-effective, enables our Soldiers to fight and win across the entire range of conflict. To achieve this objective the Army uses portfolio management to help ensure efficiencies and eliminate redundancies, evolutionary acquisition to ensure program risk is reduced by emphasizing mature technologies, and the Army readiness model to ensure the timely fielding of equipment. The Army will continue to pursue mission command capabilities by enhancing our network; remain prepared for decisive action by improving or transforming our combat platforms; and enable Soldiers and squads with improved lethality, protection and situation awareness. These enhancements also enable our Soldiers and squads to leverage Joint capabilities. As the Army transitions from Afghanistan and reinforces its commitment in the Asia-pacific region, the Army will continue to make cost-effective, sustainable and affordable choices. Overall, our modernization efforts will prepare the total force for a complex and uncertain battlefield by putting squads, with precise information and over match capability, in the right place at the right time to accomplish their mission. This plan enhances our advantages leader development, mobility, logistics at the tactical, operational, and strategic levels of our Army, and C4I.

This book was released on 2015-01-16 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Army Equipment Program in support of the President's Budget 2015 (AEP PB describes the Army Research, Development and Acquisition (RDA) budget for key capability portfolio areas and the Science and Technology portion of the Fiscal Year 2015 (FY 2015) President's Budget request. The AEP PB 15 is renamed this year to better reflect the focus of the Army's portfolio management and equipment descriptions, but flows from the previous Army Equipment Modernization Strategy and 2014 Army Equipment Modernization Plan. This document delineates RDA investments into 11 capability portfolio areas, highlights the portfolio accomplishments over the last two years and provides intent for FY 2015 investments. The dollars and quantities in this document reflect President's Budget 2015. The objective of Army equipment modernization is to enable our Soldiers to fight and win across the entire range of military operations by developing and fielding versatile and tailorable equipment that is affordable, sustainable and cost-effective. The Army has developed several initiatives to guide equipment modernization during this period of fiscal constraint. The Total Army focuses equipping modernization on the Soldier and squad providing them with the Network and key enablers. We use incremental improvements to improve existing systems as our first option and build new systems only by exception. The Army is divesting older systems and niche capabilities to decrease sustainment costs and generate additional resources for modernization and readiness. Next, we are developing smaller procurement objectives because the Army cannot afford to equip and sustain the entire force with the most advanced equipment. Our procurements are to insert needed technologies and capability improvements, leveraging commercial investment where we are "technology-takers" (e.g., information technology, fixed wing aviation) and our own focused investments in technology where we are "technology-makers" (e.g., lethality, armor, rotary wing aviation). Finally, each equipment decision is reviewed to ensure it is both affordable within the overall budget and is cost-effective in addressing the capability gap.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Army must be manned, equipped and trained to prevent conflict, shape the security environments and win wars. When adequately tailored, the Army, as part of the Joint Force, provides multiple options, integrates efforts of multiple partners and operates across multiple domains to present enemies and adversaries with multiple dilemmas. The Army Operating Concept, October 2014, identifies the first order capabilities the Army needs to meet these challenges. This Army Equipment Modernization Strategy describes how the Army will apply resources to adapt materiel in the near-term, evolve programs in the mid-term and innovate with Science and Technology for the long-term. In the near-term through FY 2020, the Army will use existing capabilities in new ways, modify and adapt capabilities to respond to new needs and more rapidly exploit new opportunities with innovative approaches. The Army must adapt faster than enemies and potential adversaries. In the mid-term, FY 2021-2029, the Army will evolve capabilities to retain overmatch and enhance expeditionary maneuver to rapidly deploy and conduct operations with ample duration and sufficient scale to win. For the long-term, the Army will innovate with less mature, but promising technologies to sustain Army asymmetric advantages and achieve significant leaps in warfighting efficiency and effectiveness. The Army Equipment Modernization Strategy applies the first principles for technological development which emphasize the integration of technology with Soldiers and teams to Enhance the Soldier for Broad Joint Mission Support. Our Soldiers and our foundational tactical formation, the Squad, must Remain Prepared for Joint Combined Arms Maneuver to defeat enemies at close quarters in urban and complex terrain. Our formations must possess the right combination of mobility, protection and lethality to fight and win. This strategy seeks to simplify systems, maximize reliability, describe equipment that ensures the capacity and readiness to accomplish any mission and reduce logistical demands and life cycle costs. It ensures interoperability and anticipates enemy countermeasures and Enables Mission Command by investing in a network with agile and expeditionary tactical command posts that are supported by a more robust home station architecture.

This book was released on 2016-01-12 with total page 587 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China’s emergence as a global economic superpower, and as a major regional military power in Asia and the Pacific, has had a major impact on its relations with the United States and its neighbors. China was the driving factor in the new strategy the United States announced in 2012 that called for a “rebalance” of U.S. forces to the Asia-Pacific region. At the same time, China’s actions on its borders, in the East China Sea, and in the South China Sea have shown that it is steadily expanding its geopolitical role in the Pacific and having a steadily increasing impact on the strategy and military developments in other Asian powers.

Download or read book Force Multiplying Technologies for Logistics Support to Military Operations written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2014-12-15 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mission of the United States Army is to fight and win our nation's wars by providing prompt, sustained land dominance across the full range of military operations and spectrum of conflict in support of combatant commanders. Accomplishing this mission rests on the ability of the Army to equip and move its forces to the battle and sustain them while they are engaged. Logistics provides the backbone for Army combat operations. Without fuel, ammunition, rations, and other supplies, the Army would grind to a halt. The U.S. military must be prepared to fight anywhere on the globe and, in an era of coalition warfare, to logistically support its allies. While aircraft can move large amounts of supplies, the vast majority must be carried on ocean going vessels and unloaded at ports that may be at a great distance from the battlefield. As the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have shown, the costs of convoying vast quantities of supplies is tallied not only in economic terms but also in terms of lives lost in the movement of the materiel. As the ability of potential enemies to interdict movement to the battlefield and interdict movements in the battlespace increases, the challenge of logistics grows even larger. No matter how the nature of battle develops, logistics will remain a key factor. Force Multiplying Technologies for Logistics Support to Military Operations explores Army logistics in a global, complex environment that includes the increasing use of antiaccess and area-denial tactics and technologies by potential adversaries. This report describes new technologies and systems that would reduce the demand for logistics and meet the demand at the point of need, make maintenance more efficient, improve inter- and intratheater mobility, and improve near-real-time, in-transit visibility. Force Multiplying Technologies also explores options for the Army to operate with the other services and improve its support of Special Operations Forces. This report provides a logistics-centric research and development investment strategy and illustrative examples of how improved logistics could look in the future.
