This book was released on 2016-02-15 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication, Army Techniques Publication ATP 3-90.1 Armor and Mechanized Infantry Company Team January 2016, provides techniques, for the employment of Armor and mechanized Infantry company teams within combined arms battalions (CABs) in the Armored brigade combat team (ABCT). It provides the framework and technical employment principles for Armor and rifle company teams within CAB in the ABCT. This ATP provides doctrinal guidance for commanders, staff, and leaders who plan, prepare, execute, and assess the operations of Armor and mechanized Infantry company teams. Specifically it is directed toward the company commander, executive officer (XO), first sergeant (1SG), platoon leader (PL), platoon sergeant (PSG), fire support officer (FSO), master gunner, supply sergeant, signal support specialist, emergency care sergeant, field maintenance team (FMT) chief, and all supporting units. Commanders, staffs, and subordinates ensure their decisions and actions follow applicable United States (U.S.), international, and, in some cases, host-nation laws and regulations. Commanders at all levels ensure their Soldiers operate according to the law of war and rules of engagement (ROE). (Refer to Field Manual (FM) 27-10 for more information). This publication serves as an authoritative reference for United States Army Training and Doctrine Command personnel who develop doctrine material and force structure, institutional and unit training, and company team standard operating procedures (SOPs). It is a guide for Armor and mechanized Infantry companies to develop SOPs. ATP 3-90.1 has been updated and provided as an ATP in accordance with 2015 Doctrine Strategy. In addition to doctrine changes, a significant effort has been made to eliminate redundancies with parent doctrinal manuals (for example ADRP 3-07). The end results are a reduction of chapters, from 11 to 8. Chapter 1 discusses the role of the Armor and mechanized Infantry company team. It discusses Armor and mechanized Infantry company team operations It also combines content from previous Chapters 2 and 3 to include discussion on the operational areas, the role of the Armor and Mechanized Infantry Company Team the duties and responsibilities for key personnel and the operations process. Chapter 2 discusses basics of the offense, common offensive planning considerations, actions on contact, movement to contact (MTC), and attack. Chapters 3 discusses basics of the defense, common defensive planning considerations, defensive techniques, engagement area (EA) development, and transitions. Chapter 4 discusses company support for stability tasks, company stability tasks, common stability planning considerations, inform and military transition teams. Chapter 5 establishes techniques and procedures that the company team can apply to these specialized missions (such as, linkup, passage of lines, relief in place, battle handover, assembly area operations). Chapter 6 discusses principles of direct fire control, the fire control process, direct fire planning, and direct fire control. Chapter 7 focuses on those elements with which the company team is most likely to work: fires, aviation, protection, and intelligence. Chapter 8 discusses the provision of the logistics, personnel services, and Army health protection necessary to maintain operations until mission accomplishment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mechanized infantry is one of the least-studied components of the U.S. Army's combat arms, and its most visable piece of equipment, the Bradley Fighting Vehicle, is one of the military's most controversial pieces of equipment. This study traces the idea of mechanized infantry from its roots in the early armored operations of World War I, through its fruition in World War II, to its drastic transformation in response to the threat of a nuclear, biological, and chemical battlefield. The U.S. Army's doctrinal migration from the idea of specialized armored infantry to that of more generalized mechanized infantry led to problematic consequences in training and equipping the force. Haworth explores the origins, conduct, and outcome of the Bradley controversy, along with its implications for Army institutional cultures, force designs, and doctrines. Challenging traditional partisan views of the Bradley program, Haworth goes to the roots of the issue. The author details the mechanized infantry's problematic status in the Army's traditional division of roles and missions between its Infantry and Armored branches. While new conditions demand new equipment, old institutions and current commitments inevitably complicate matters; thus, traditional infantry considerations have driven the Bradley's requirements. The raw capability of the vehicle and the fortitude and ingenuity of its users have to some extent compensated for the conflicting pressures in its design. However, the reluctance of the Army to see mechanized infantry as a specialty has led to the problem the vehicle has faced, as this book clearly shows.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Preface: The following pages provide a narrative analysis of the U.S. Army's development of armored organizations and their related doctrine, materiel, and training activities in the period 1917-1945. This period marked the emergence of clear principles of armored warfare that became the underpinning of the Armor Branch, influencing armored developments long after World War II ended. A unique style of mounted maneuver combat emerged that reflected a mix of tradition an innovation. In the process, American military culture changed, particularly through the adoption of combined-arms principles. Conversely, political actions, budgetary considerations, and senior leadership decisions also shaped the course of armor development. The emergence of an American armored force involved more than simply tank development. It included the creation of an armored division structure steeped in combined-arms principles, organizational flexibility, and revolutionary command and control processes. Parallel developments included the establishment of specialized units to provide antitank, reconnaissance, and infantry support capabilities. Several Army branches played a role in determining the precise path of armored development, and one of them-the Cavalry-became a casualty as a result.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This history of American armored warfare through the twentieth century “boasts some of the best available analysis of mobile war as practiced by the US" (Publishers Weekly). Camp Colt to Desert Storm is the only complete history of US armed forces from the advent of the tank in battle during World War I to the campaign to drive Iraq out of Kuwait in 1991. With comprehensive analysis, it traces the development of doctrine for operations at the tactical and operational levels of war and assesses how this fighting doctrine translates into the development of equipment. Beginning with the Army’s first tank school, Camp Colt in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, this volume examines how armored warfare effected and was influenced by the evolution of twentieth-century combat. The tank revolutionized the battlefield in World War II. In the years since, developments such as nuclear weapons, ballistic missiles, computer assisted firing, and satellite navigation have continued to transform armored warfare’s role in combat.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper focuses on the formulation of doctrine since World War II. In no comparable period in history have the dimensions of the battlefield been so altered by rapid technological changes. The need for the tactical doctrines of the Army to remain correspondingly abreast of these changes is thus more pressing than ever before. Future conflicts are not likely to develop in the leisurely fashions of the past where tactical doctrines could be refined on the battlefield itself. It is, therefore, imperative that we apprehend future problems with as much accuracy as possible. One means of doing so is to pay particular attention to the business of how the Army's doctrine has developed historically, with a view to improving methods of future development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The vision of the future battlefield is one of great uncertainty and complexity. Since the world is a dynamic and turbulent place, operations may cover the full spectrum of other than war to full war. The army will need an organizational strategy that maximizes flexibility, tailorability and capabilities. This study examines the feasibility of a new "Company Team" composed of Armor, Mechanized Infantry and Attack Aviation. Current Army doctrine does not task organize aviation down to company team level. In this study an evaluation is made of this hypothetical organization using the measures of lethality, optempo and mobility. Finally this study concludes that the Army needs to develop a flexible approach in its force structuring that is focused on capability based organizations capable of combined arms operations down to the company team level as required.
