Book excerpt: At the direction of the Congress, the Department of Defense (DoD) is studying the number and mix of mobility assets it will need to more rapidly move its forces overseas in future conflicts. Mobility assets include cargo ships, transport aircraft, and military equipment prepositioned on ships near potential trouble spots. DoD issued the first volume of its Mobility Requirements Study(MRS) in January 1992 containing its conclusions and recommendations. The MRS found that in 1999 the United States will not have sufficient mobility capability in a number of areas. To reduce a projected shortfall in the U.S. ability to rapidly deploy armed forces overseas, the study recommended that United States acquire 20 large sealift ships, continue the current acquisition program for C-17 transport aircraft increase the number and readiness of ships in the Ready Reserve Force, and purchase rail cars and take other actions to improve DoD's ability to move units from their peacetime locations to airports and seaports. Our report focuses on the sealift and airlift portions of the MRS because they involve large defense acquisition programs. If approved by the Congress, the sealift expansion program-including the 20 large sealift ships and the additions and improvements to the Ready Reserve Force-would cost an estimated $11.6 billion by fiscal year 1999. DoD's currently approved plan to acquire 120 C-17 aircraft (to replace the aging C-141 aircraft fleet) has an estimated cost $41 billion. We have also issued several other reports addressing issues related to strategic mobility. These are listed at the end of this report.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Military Strategy of the United States calls upon the Armed Forces to retain the ability to rapidly deploy and sustain capabilities to diverse regions, and the Quadrennial Defense Review 2010 acknowledges the fundamental importance of U.S. capability to project power. The National Security Strategy identifies taking stock of capabilities as one of many ways of reducing military risk. To identify the mobility tools needed for force projection, the Department of Defense (DOD) has conducted several studies, including the fifth and most recent?the Mobility Capabilities and Requirements Study 2016 (MCRS-16). DOD issued the report in February 2010.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm highlighted the need to quickly deliver combat forces and their support to theaters of operation other than Europe. Congress directed the DoD to assess both intertheater and intratheater lift requirements and develop an integrated plan to meet them. This report presents the results of a review of DoD's 1996 Intratheater Lift Analysis, and reviews DoD's analysis to determine whether: the analysis and recommendations in the study were appropriately linked; the study considered all options in meeting the requirements for various lift assets, and improvements could be made to enhance the study's value as a decision-making tool.

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.
