This book was released on 2003 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The general purpose of this study was to deepen and broaden thinking about the nature and implications of possible Multi-Skilied Soldier (MSS) Concept implementation. Specific objectives were (1) to determine applicability of the MSS to the Stryker Brigade Combat Team (SBCT), as it might be implemented in Initial Entry Training (IET) and (2) to prototype MSS Concept implementation for the SBCT, considering possible implementation for the Future Force. The report also defines the MSS; shows how the MSS Concept might fit conceptually within a larger Army training, education, and professional development model for Soldiers of all ranks; offers an MSS Program design for IET; and crafts actionable recommendations regarding general MSS implementation for IET. The study concludes that the MSS Concept is fully applicable to the SBCT, as well as the so-called Current Force. It also concludes that MSS implementation would have a significant salutary effect on unit training readiness postures across the force. This study relied heavily on insights and analysis gained from interviews with groups of senior NCOs and officers within the 3rd Brigade (SBCT), 2nd Infantry Division, Ft. Lewis, WA, during September 2002.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The authors of this report seek to understand how network-centric operations (NCO) capabilities are a source of combat power for the Army's Stryker brigade and to determine the extent to which the tenets of NCO are realized by the unit. Using a broad range of measures of effectiveness, the authors compared the performance of a Stryker brigade with that of a nondigitized light infantry brigade in certification exercises at the Joint Readiness Training Center and found that the Stryker brigade's superior networking capabilities, superior shared situational awareness, speed of command, and ability to control the speed of command vastly improved the brigade's performance in these exercises. Using NCO measures of effectiveness, this analysis sheds light on the NCO capabilities that made the Stryker brigade a more agile and effective combat force. The authors conclude by discussing the potential implications of future NCO capabilities for future Army forces."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book Network Centric Operations Case Study The Stryker Brigade Combat Team written by and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Stryker brigade is one of the newest units in the U.S. Army. Intrinsic to the design of this unit are digital communications networks and battle command systems, a new force design, and a medium-weight wheeled vehicle with unique speed and stealth characteristics. The Stryker brigade has several important new elements related to Network-Centric Operations (NCO), including its new operational concept, its organizational structure, and its networking capabilities. The Stryker brigade organizational structure is designed to gain and exploit an information advantage by conducting NCO. It utilizes an information-centric concept of operations with elements that bear a striking resemblance to some of the concepts found in NCO theory as defined in the NCO Conceptual Framework (NCO CF) developed by the Office of Force Transformation (OFT) and Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Networks and Information Integration (OASD NII). The Stryker Brigade Combat Team (SBCT) possesses an innovative organizational structure. It has an embedded reconnaissance, surveillance, and target acquisition (RSTA) squadron, an organic military intelligence company, and other features that make it capable of generating its own situational awareness data and quickly fusing this data to generate high-quality situational awareness information and under standing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to analyze the meaning and implications of the Multi-Skilled Soldier (MSS) Concept and to assess the considerations for Army-wide implementation in order to provide a basis to make decisions whether or not to proceed with realization of the MSS Concept and, if so, how. The specific objectives were to analyze the Concept and its implications generally for the Army and specifically for the Objective Force, to develop a Blueprint for use in defining and assessing potential MSS implementation and sustainment courses of action, to devise a Roadmap outling major actions required for MSS implementation by 2008, to craft a Study Plan of research and analysis projects, including behavioral research, necessary to support MSS implementation and sustainment, and to make pertinent conclusions and recommendations. This study relied heavily on non-attribution interviews conduced from August 2001 through January 2002 with those involved in developing the concepts for the Objective Force and in fielding the initial Interim Brigade Combat Teams (IBCTs). This report serves as a departure point for further research and development work relating to crafting and assessing implementation and sustainment courses of action, as well as supporting personnel and training designs and associated best practices.

This book was released on 2013-04-19 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ATTP 3-21.9 describes how the Stryker Brigade Combat Team (SBCT) Infantry rifle platoons and squads fight. ATTP 3-21.9 discusses how they operate as Infantry, mounted in their Stryker Infantry carrier vehicles (ICVs), with the ICV in support, and as part of the Stryker rifle company. The content includes principles, tactics, techniques, procedures, terms, and symbols that apply to small-unit operations. ATTP 3-21.9 is intentionally designed as a companion manual to FM 3-21.8. Many of the subjects covered in FM 3-21.8 are not only mutually applicable to the Stryker platoons and squads but also nearly identical and need not be republished. Because of this, ATTP 3-21.9 focuses on the unique characteristics and capabilities of the Stryker platoons and squads. Major areas reduced, or not included in this manual, are covered in detail in FM 3-21.8 and include—• Dismounted tactical movement.• Employing fires.• Troop-leading procedures (TLP).• Sustainment.• Air defense.• Chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) operations.• Composite risk management.• Fratricide avoidance.• Urban operations (UO).• Sniper operations.• Patrols.• Employment of the dismounted element's weapons.• Platoon and squad fire planning.• Air assault operations.• Defeating improvised explosive devices (IED).• Obstacle reduction and employment.• Dismounted fighting positions.These are basic skills that Stryker small units and their leaders must understand, practice, and execute. Their absence from ATTP 3-21.9 in no way diminishes their importance. Rather, they are fundamental skills applicable to all Infantry units and leaders.To fully understand operations of the SBCT Infantry platoons and squads, leaders should also study FM 3-21.11, FM 3-20.151, Infantry platoon tasks on the Digital Training Management System (accessible on Army Knowledge Online [AKO]), Soldier's Manual of Common Tasks, and other manuals listed in the references.ATTP 3-21.9 supersedes FM 3-21.9, published in December 2002. The contents of the older manual are based primarily on the SBCT concept paper and interviews conducted during visits to the first Stryker-equipped units as they organized at Fort Lewis. ATTP 3-21.9 includes changes based on operational experience of deployed SBCT units. It also incorporates information on current Infantry platoon and squad tactics, the employment of the ICV, and the integration of command and control (C2) systems during combat.The target audience for ATTP 3-21.9 comprises SBCT platoon and squad leaders, SBCT Soldiers, and those that desire an understanding of how they fight and operate. ATTP 3-21.9 applies to the Active Army, the Army National Guard/ArmyNational Guard of the United States, and the United States Army Reserves unless otherwise stated.The proponent for this publication is the United States Army Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC). The preparing agency is the U.S. Army Maneuver Center of Excellence (MCoE).

Download or read book The Stryker Brigade Combat Team Infantry Battalion FM 3 21 21 written by Department Army and published by . This book was released on 2017-08-10 with total page 638 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Stryker brigade combat team (SBCT) infantry battalion is designed to be a full-spectrum, early-entry combat force. It has utility in all operational environments against all projected future threats. As part of the SBCT, the infantry battalion possesses significant utility for divisions and corps engaged in a major theater war; however, the SBCT is optimized to meet the challenges of smaller-scale contingencies. Given current trends, domestic factors, and the worldwide potential for various forms of conflict, the United States can expect to remain heavily engaged on a global basis. The United States will likely respond to serious threats to its national interests from failed and failing states, from transnational entities, and potentially major military competitors as well as from regional or state-centered threats. The proliferation of information and weapons technologies, coupled with asymmetric application of conventional and nonmilitary capabilities, may enable even regional adversaries to oppose United States interests and military forces effectively. This manual provides the battalion commander and staff with the doctrinal base to ensure the SBCT infantry battalion's versatility across the full spectrum of potential operations. The Stryker brigade combat team infantry battalion optimizes organizational effectiveness while balancing lethality, mobility, and survivability against requirements for rapid strategic deployability. The infantry battalion includes a reconnaissance platoon, imbedded human intelligence (HUMINT), and three robust combined-arms infantry companies. These organic elements ensure the battalion's versatility across the full range of potential requirements, from providing the security necessary to promote stability and conduct operations during peacetime military engagements to conducting offensive and defensive operations in a major-theater war against localized threats.
