Book The Fire Support Coordination Line  Is It Time to Reconsider Our Doctrine

Download or read book The Fire Support Coordination Line Is It Time to Reconsider Our Doctrine written by David H Zook (III.) and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigates use of the Fire Support Coordination Line (FSCL) in VII Corps during Operation Desert Storm. The FSCL was considered a restrictive fire control measure by VII Corps due to the requirement to clear surface-to-surface fires beyond the FSCL with the Air Force. the area Doctrinally, the FSCL is a permissive fire control measure which opens beyond the FSCL to all fires without clearance from subordinate, supporting or adjacent units. The supporting air component should be informed of surface-to-surface fires delivered beyond the FSCL. This study explains the use of the FSCL as a restrictive measure and explores the Corps deep battle relative to theater operational considerations. This study concludes that the current doctrinal FSCL definition is not valid within the context of joint operations. On a nonlinear battlefield characterized by ground attack systems that will engage targets in an area previously accessible only to aircraft delivered munitions, coordination must occur between the ground and air component for delivery of fires beyond the FSCL.

Download or read book Learning Large Lessons written by David E. Johnson and published by Rand Corporation. This book was released on 2007-03-30 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relative roles of U.S. ground and air power have shifted since the end of the Cold War. At the level of major operations and campaigns, the Air Force has proved capable of and committed to performing deep strike operations, which the Army long had believed the Air Force could not reliably accomplish. If air power can largely supplant Army systems in deep operations, the implications for both joint doctrine and service capabilities would be significant. To assess the shift of these roles, the author of this report analyzed post?Cold War conflicts in Iraq (1991), Bosnia (1995), Kosovo (1999), Afghanistan (2001), and Iraq (2003). Because joint doctrine frequently reflects a consensus view rather than a truly integrated joint perspective, the author recommends that joint doctrine-and the processes by which it is derived and promulgated-be overhauled. The author also recommends reform for the services beyond major operations and campaigns to ensure that the United States attains its strategic objectives. This revised edition includes updates and an index.

Book The Fire Support Coordination Line

Download or read book The Fire Support Coordination Line written by Michael J. McMahon and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph addresses the question of whether the concept of the Fire Support Coordination Line (FSCL) should be included in future joint doctrine. The FSCL was originally designed as a concept to fulfill a requirement for deconfliction of fires between air and ground forces to prevent fratricide. As the concept evolved it became a permissive FSCM to allow the delivery of uncoordinated fires into an area that the ground commander could not reach with his organic fires. The concept has changed over time to become a more restrictive measure, limiting the ability of the commander to influence a portion of his AO directly. In essence, the FSCL is being used to deconflict fires, particularly at the operational level, rather than to facilitate the integration of complementary capabilities of joint systems and operations. Furthermore, though the FSCL was at one time an appropriate and necessary control measure because of technological limitations, tremendous advances in information-age technology and a new battlefield environment increasingly characterized by non-linear operations have made the concept of the FSCL irrelevant. In fact, the FSCL impedes the JFC from applying joint fires on the battlefield in the most effective and efficient manner possible. The fundamental conclusion of the paper is that the FSCL is a concept behind its time, and should be eliminated from joint doctrine. Commanders should use boundaries, to include forward boundaries, to achieve unity of effort within their AOs. The Joint Force Commander should control all assets that can be applied as operational fires through an Integrated Tasking Order, and should apportion control of resources to subordinate commanders to accomplish his intent. Within their AOs, commanders should continue to use other FSCM to mold their battlefield. Finally, advances in information technology must be exploited jointly so that commanders can integrate fully the complementary capabilities offered by the service component.

Book The Evolution of US Army Tactical Doctrine  1946 76

Download or read book The Evolution of US Army Tactical Doctrine 1946 76 written by Robert A. Doughty and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 68 pages. 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.
