…Pair-rank the options based on the first criteria from the point of view of the threat decisionmaker. The pair-ranking is accomplished exactly like the procedure used in step 4 to rank the criteria. = Compare…

…The relative combat power that military forces can generate against an adversary is constrained by a nation’s capability to plan for, gain access to, and deliver forces and materiel to required points of application. Logistics…

…As cyberattacks become part of everyday life over the next few years, outages of critical systems will likely become routine, possibly to the point that traditional “emergency” comms methods become a burden. With a communications disaster…

…Their prior self-development, training, and experience allows them to assess and create overwhelming combat power at decisive points. For example, an attacking battalion task force encountering enemy security elements just moving into position can conduct…

…Commanders ensure that subordinate unit defensive plans are compatible and that control measures, such as contact points and phase lines, are sufficient for flank and rear coordination when assigning AOs. The defensive plan addresses what happens…

…Commanders control a defense by using control measures that provide the flexibility needed to allow defending commanders to concentrate combat power at the decisive point. They can use battle positions, direct fire control, and FSCMs in…

…Commanders at all echelons track defensive preparations, such as establishing Class IV and V supply points and start or completion times of obstacle belts and groups. Commanders plan how units will restore obstacles that an enemy…

…Through maneuver, the JFC can concentrate forces at decisive points to achieve surprise, psychological effects, and physical momentum. Maneuver also may enable or exploit the effects of massed or precision fires. (1) The principal purpose of…

…Units improve survivability by detecting air and missile launches, predicting impact points, providing threat identification, and disseminating early warning. SUSTAINMENT 4-85. Commanders address several unique sustainment considerations in the defensive plan. Priorities for replenishment normally…

…That transfer of authority usually occurs when roughly two-thirds of the passing force has moved through the passage point. If not directed by higher authority, the two unit commanders determine—

…Concentrating combat power at the decisive point, supported by rapid maneuver, places an enemy in a disadvantageous position. Commanders maintain focus and pressure, controlling the tempo of operations while seeking and exploiting opportunities. Maintaining momentum requires…

…These engineer units also prepare any strong points required by the division or corps concept of operations. 4-99. Survivability tasks include using engineer equipment to help in constructing trenches, command post shelters, and artillery, firing…

…Concentration is massing the effects of combat power in time and space at the decisive point to achieve a single purpose. Concentration requires the coordination of unified action partner capabilities in multiple domains to create opportunities…

…The essence of battlefield agility is the capability to conduct rapid and orderly movement to concentrate combat power at decisive points and times. Successful movement places troops and equipment at their destination at the proper time…
