The new Army Operating Concept defines mobility as "the capability that permits military forces to gain positions of relative advantage, conduct high-tempo operations, and concentrate combat power against decisive points while operating dispersed across wide areas." Mobility is mentioned in various places in the concept, including the following passages: "the mobility to concentrate rapidly"; "combined arms units that possess the mobility, firepower, and protection to defeat the enemy"; "units possess the mobility, protection, and precision firepower that allow them to fight for understanding and identify opportunities to seize, retain, and exploit the initiative"; "forces have the mobility, protection, and firepower necessary to strike the enemy from unexpected directions"; and "combined with firepower and protection, mobility at the tactical level allows Army units to gain positions of relative advantage and overmatch the enemy in close combat."
