This book was released on 2017-02-15 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Army Techniques Publication ATP 3-92 Corps Operations April 2016 ATP 3-92 provides the Army and joint community with guidance on the conduct of operational and tactical tasks performed by the corps echelon. (Defense support of civil authorities tasks are discussed in ADP 3-28 and ADRP 3-28.) ATP 3-92 describes tactics and techniques tested in the conduct of actual operations. It expounds on the doctrinal fundamentals established in ADRP 3-0, ADRP 3-07, and ADRP 3-90, which establish doctrine for the conduct of decisive action and describe the operational art and the art and science of tactics. These ADRPs must be read before reading ATP 3-92 to gain a better understanding of the tactics and techniques discussed in ATP 3-92. It is necessary to study ADRP 1-02, ADRP 5-0, and ADRP 6-0 to understand the Army's operational terms and military symbols that form the basis of the language of land operations, the Army operations process, and Army mission command. These ADRPs provide the foundation for ATP 3-92. It is also necessary to study ADRP 1, ADRP 2-0, ADRP 3-05, ADRP 3-09, ADRP 3-37, ADRP 4-0, ADRP 6-22, and ADRP 7-0 that provide basic information on the profession of arms, other elements of combat power, and how to conduct effective training. It is recommended that FM 3-13, FM 3-53, and FM 3-57 be reviewed in order to obtain a greater understanding of how the corps commander's exercise of mission command is supported by information related capabilities and the information element of combat power. It is recommended to study applicable joint doctrine, such as JP 1 and JP 3-0, to become familiar with the operational environment existing in the region where they will conduct operations.

Download or read book Army Tactics Techniques and Procedures Attp 3 06 11 Fm 3 06 11 Combined Arms Operations in Urban Terrain written by United States Government Army and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-04-01 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Army Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (ATTP) 3-06.11 establishes doctrine for combined arms operations in urban terrain for the brigade combat team (BCT) and battalion/squadron commanders and staffs, company/troop commanders, small-unit leaders, and individual Soldiers. The continued trend worldwide of urban growth and the shift of populations from rural to urban areas continues to affect Army operations. The urban environment, consisting of complex terrain, dense populations, and integrated infrastructures, is the predominant operational environment in which Army forces currently operate. Each urban environment is unique and differs because of the combinations presented by the enemy, the urban area itself, the major operation of which it may be part (or the focus), and always changing societal and geopolitical considerations. Enemy forces will take advantage of this complex environment by intermingling with the populace. ATTP 3-06.11 describes the fundamental principles, tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP) of urban operations (UO) across full spectrum operations, using the UO operational construct (understand, shape, engage, consolidate, and transition) to outline the discussions. ATTP 3-06.11 is based on current BCT structure and lessons learned from ongoing UO. ATTP 3-06.11 primarily addresses offensive and defensive operations in an urban environment. Stability operations are briefly discussed in the context of transition considerations. Stability operations are inherently among the people and generally in urban environments. Field manual (FM) 3-07 is the source manual for stability doctrine and addresses BCT considerations for conducting stability UO. FM 3-07.1 is the primary source for BCT and below considerations for interaction and support to host nation (HN) security forces. This material is not repeated in ATTP 3-06.11. This publication applies to the Active Army, the Army National Guard (ARNG)/Army National Guard of the United States (ARNGUS), and the United States Army Reserve (USAR) unless otherwise stated. The proponent for this publication is the U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC). The preparing agency is the U.S. Army Maneuver Center of Excellence (MCoE). Urban operations are among the most difficult and challenging missions a BCT can undertake. Most UO are planned and controlled at division or corps level but executed by BCTs. The unified action environment of UO enables and enhances the capabilities of the BCT to plan, prepare, and execute offensive, defensive, and stability operations. Urban operations are Infantry-centric combined arms operations that capitalize on the adaptive and innovative leaders at the squad, platoon, and company level. Combined arms is the synchronized and simultaneous application of the elements of combat power to achieve an effect greater than if each element of combat power was used separately or sequentially. The eight elements of combat power are leadership, information, movement and maneuver, intelligence, fires, sustainment, mission command, and protection. Leadership and information are applied through, and multiply the effects of, the other six elements of combat power. These six-movement and maneuver, intelligence, fires, sustainment, mission command, and protection-are collectively described as the warfighting functions. (See FM 3-0 for details.) The BCT is the Army's largest fixed combined arms organization and the primary close combat force. A key component in UO is the inherent ability of the BCT to tailor its force to meet the requirements of the urban environment. This introduction provides an overview of UO considerations that shape the subsequent discussions of operations at BCT and below.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brigade Combat Team (BCT) is a modular organization that provides the division, land component commander (LCC), or joint task force (JTF) commander with close combat capabilities. BCTs are designed for operations encompassing the entire spectrum of conflict. They fight battles and engagements by employing the tactical advantages of a combined arms force structure. BCTs accomplish their missions by integrating the actions of maneuver battalions, field artillery, aviation, engineer, air and missile defense, close air support, and naval gunfire. The BCT's reconnaissance squadron and automated information systems give it information superiority over threat forces. These assets enable the BCT to gather large amounts of information, process it rapidly into intelligence, and disseminate it to decision-makers quickly. Field manual 3-90.6, “Brigade Combat Team,” provides the commander and staff of the Brigade Combat Team (BCT) and subordinate units with doctrine relevant to Army and joint operations. It applies to the Heavy Brigade Combat Team (HBCT), the Infantry Brigade Combat Team (IBCT), and the Stryker Brigade Combat Team (SBCT). The doctrine described in this manual applies across the full spectrum of military operations – offense, defense, stability or civil support. This publication: Provides BCTs with a framework in which they can operate as part of a division or independently as part of a joint task force; Provides doctrine for BCT commanders, staffs, and their subordinate commanders and leadersresponsible for conducting major activities performed during operations; Serves as an authoritative reference for personnel who Develop doctrine (fundamental principles and tactics, techniques, and procedures), materiel, and force structure, Develop institution and unit training, and Develop unit tactical standard operating procedures for BCT operations; Reflects and supports the Army operations doctrine found in FM 3-0, FM 5-0, and FM 6-0.
