Book excerpt: The Army's Pre-positioned Afloat (APA) fleet, known by military planners as Army Pre-positioned Stocks (APS-3), performs a key role in the nation's power projection strategy. Budgeting for this program is measured in billions of dollars-and it will undoubtedly be funded and maintained beyond the year 2010. As a key component of the nation's deterrence strategy, and an essential element of the nation's strategic mobility triad, APA is here to stay. Units assigned contingency missions must draw equipment from Army Pre-positioned Afloat, "but they have little to no prior visibility of the equipment which they may draw in a theater of war. Wholesale systems designed to maintain accurate inventories of the equipment are less than perfect; they simply do not offer the fidelity required for warfighting commanders who plan for deployment. Because of this uncertainty, the Army must become better acquainted with APS-3 and integrate APA training into annual training calendars. In the long term, the Army must foster an on-going partnership between APS planners and analysts, on one hand, and warfighting commanders and staffs, on the other

Download or read book Military Prepositioning written by Mark E. Gebicke and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 1999-09 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reviews the readiness of DoD prepositioning programs by which military stores, or prepositions, reserves of military equipment and supplies would be located near potential conflict areas. During a crisis, prepositioning would speed U.S. response times because only the troops and a relatively small amount of materiel would need to be brought to the conflict area. This report examines (1) the basis for the program requirements and (2) the rates of inventory fill and maintenance condition of prepositioned stocks and the reliability of this readiness data. Focuses on the Army and the AF programs because of concerns about the condition and mgmt. of their stocks.
