This book was released on 1996 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The days of U.S. military forces defending a known area of terrain with a large, propositioned force appear to be drawing to a close. In the future, as in the recent past, the U.S. Army will need to deploy to areas of potential or actual conflict. Furthermore, because time is often critical in overseas operations, the United States must have land forces that can deploy quickly both by air and by sea. The RFPT project at RAND concentrates on the airliftable portion of these forces in the early-entry role. RAND DB-168-A/OSD (Steeb et al., 1996) highlights this project and its recent accomplishments.

This book was released on 1996 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The days of U.S. military forces defending a predetermined terrain with a large, prepositioned force appear to be drawing to a close. In the future, as in the recent past, the U.S. Army will need to deploy to areas of potential or actual conflict. Furthermore, because response time is often critical in overseas operations, the United States must have land forces that can deploy quickly and decisively, both by air and sea. This study concentrates on the airliftable portion of these forces in the early-entry role. In this role, light airborne forces may encounter heavy enemy forces in terrain suitable for tank maneuvers. Such situations pose a grave challenge for U.S. light forces as they are currently configured. As part of the Rapid Force Prdjection Initiative (RFPI), we examined new "technology concepts" that potentially allow light forces to fight and survive against such heavy forces.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This documented briefing summarizes research supporting the Rapid Force Protection Initiative (RFPI) Advanced Concept Technology Demonstration (ACTD), with the goal of exploring new technology concepts for the ACTD. The focus of this research was on advanced distributed ground sensors--specifically the air-deliverable acoustic sensor (ADAS)--with emphasis on how such sensors might fit into the current RFPI hunter/standoff killer concept. High-resolution simulation was used to examine and quantify many of the key aspects of performance, environmental effects, and military utility.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past several years, RAND has been exploring how new concepts made viable with emerging technologies can dramatically improve the effectiveness of light ground forces, particularly in the early-entry role. Motivation for this area of research is derived from studies showing that the U.S. military will need to deploy with greater speed, lethality, and survivability in the future, and that light forces will be the first deployed. Limitations of recent capability were observed during the Desert Shield build-up, where airborne ground forces such as the 82nd Division Ready Brigade (DRB) were deployed to secure key terrain without a credible anti-armor capability. 1 Such improvements to early-entry capabilities appear even more germane in light of the concomitant reductions in prepositioned forces abroad and the rapid increase in threat uncertainty. Thus, as dfticult as the early-entry challenge has been in the recent past, early signposts suggest even more difficult challenges ahead.
