Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Army has moved along the path of preparing for the 21st century. This process began with the conceptual examinations and assessments carried out under the "Louisiana Maneuvers" and the Army's Battle Labs, and matured through the Force XXI process. The Army recently completed its first series of Advanced Warfighting Experiments that will shape the redesign and restructure of the future force, Army XXI, for the early years of the new millennium. While the broad outlines of Army XXI have been sketched out, many of the details remain to be filled in. Undoubtedly, these efforts will be influenced by the recent reports of the Quadrennial Defense Review (May 1997) and the National Defense Panel (December 1997). Indeed, debates over details of the force structure and the ultimate size of the Army are not likely to abate any time soon. To assist in the further conceptual development, Dr. William T. Johnsen places Army XXI in a broad strategic context. He briefly examines the anticipated international security environment and the roles that the U.S. Armed Forces and the Army can be expected to perform. He then assesses a wide range of general factors that will influence the capabilities needed to carry out the anticipated roles. Finally, he examines general and specific criteria that can be used to determine the appropriate size of Army XXI.

Finally, he examines general and specific criteria that can be used to determine the appropriate size of Army XXI. Dr. Johnsen's conclusions are likely to spur further debate on the force structures of Army XXI. These debates are essential if the U.S. Army is to be prepared to carry out its future roles. It is in this context that the Strategic Studies Institute offers this contribution to the dialogue.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dramatic political and economic changes throughout the world, coupled with rapid advances in technology, pose an important question for the U.S. Army: What technologies are best suited to defending U.S. interests against tomorrow's military threats? STAR 21 provides an expert analysis of how the Army can prepare itself for the battlefield of the futureâ€"where soldiers will wear "smart" helmets and combat chemical warfare with vaccines produced in days to counter new threats. This book summarizes emerging developments in robotics, "brillant" munitions, medical support, laser sensors, biotechnolgy, novel materials, and other key areas. Taking into account reliability, deployability, and other values that all military systems will need, the volume identifies new systems and emerging technologies that offer the greatest payoff for the Army. The volume addresses a host of important military issues, including the importance of mobile, rapidly deployable forces, the changing role of the helicopter, and how commercial technology may help the Army stay ahead of potential opponents.

Using the tool of alternative futures analysis, this study attempts to help the Army with force planning for the 2025 era. It lays out a spectrum of different "future worlds" to illustrate the complete universe of future missions. Analyzing possible trends across five key areas (geopolitics, economics, demographics, technology, and environment), the study defines six alternative futures and postulates an appropriate "Army type" for each one.

Book excerpt: Army Techniques Publication ATP 3-57.60 Civil Affairs Planning April 2014 expands the doctrinal discussion of the role of CA forces supporting Army and joint operational planning that resides in FM 3-57, Civil Affairs Operations. Publication of ATP 3-57.60 incorporates revisions to the Army's running estimate and operation plan (OPLAN) formats. Support of operational planning by CA forces occurs at all levels of war-strategic, operational, and tactical. Whether conducted by CA Soldiers assigned to the staffs of various mission command headquarters or by CA planning teams augmenting those organizations, planning for U.S. forces' interaction with the civil component of the operational environment (OE) is required across the range of military operations. Publication of ATP 3-57.60 replaces CA planning doctrine found in FM 3-05.401 /Marine Corps Reference Publication 3-33.1A, Civil Affairs Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures. ATP 3-57.60 consists of five chapters and four appendixes: Chapter 1 provides techniques used by CA Soldiers used in conducting civil considerations analysis and analysis of the operational variables during planning. The discussion further provides techniques used in determining centers of gravity (COGs) as they relate to the civil component of the OE, MOEs, and MOPs. Chapter 2 describes techniques used in the application of the CA methodology in the execution of TLP and problem solving. Detailed planning considerations are provided for the analysis of civil considerations in the conduct of TLP. Chapter 3 discusses the role of the CA planner in the execution of the MDMP. The chapter provides techniques used by CA planners during each of the seven steps of the MDMP. Chapter 4 describes the role of CA planners in the execution of the JOPP. The chapter provides a discussion of the linkage required in the planning of CAO supporting the joint force commander's CMO intent and concept of operations (CONOPS). The discussion provides techniques used by CA planners during each step of the JOPP. Chapter 5 provides techniques and planning considerations used by CA Soldiers in supporting the development of a transition plan. It describes the various types of transition and provides a listing of transition tasks that assist the CA planner to identify and prioritize those tasks required for transition. Appendix A details the procedures and provides an example format for the completion of the CA area study. Appendix B details the procedures and the format for the development of Annex K (Civil Affairs Operations) to an Army OPLAN or operation order (OPORD). Appendix C details the procedures and the format for the development of the CAO running estimate. Appendix D addresses planning considerations regarding personnel protection issues during all phases of deliberate and crisis action planning and general considerations used in conducting urban area operations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the human factors issues associated with the development, testing, and implementation of helmet-mounted display technology in the 21st Century Land Warrior System. Because the framework of analysis is soldier performance with the system in the full range of environments and missions, the book discusses both the military context and the characteristics of the infantry soldiers who will use the system. The major issues covered include the positive and negative effects of such a display on the local and global situation awareness of the individual soldier, an analysis of the visual and psychomotor factors associated with each design feature, design considerations for auditory displays, and physical sources of stress and the implications of the display for affecting the soldier's workload. The book proposes an innovative approach to research and testing based on a three-stage strategy that begins in the laboratory, moves to controlled field studies, and culminates in operational testing.
