Force XXI Operations: A Concept for the Evolution of Full-Dimensional Operationsfor the Strategic Army of the Early Twenty-First Century

摘要

This pamphlet describes the conceptual foundations for the conduct of futureoperations in War and OOTW involving Force XXI-the US Army of the early twenty-first century. The US Army is defined in this concept as the active Army, Army Reserve, Army National Guard, and Department of the Army civilians. This pamphlet provides TRADOC's Task Force XXI, Battle Laboratories, doctrine writers, combat developers, and trainers a vision of future conflict for the development of supporting concepts, programs, experiments, and initiatives. Finally, the concept offers implications for doctrine, training, leader development, organizations, materiel, and soldiers (DTLOMS). The 1993 version of FM 100-5 provided the Army a short lead on the future, allowing it to move ahead in its thinking on the character of future conflict and OOTW. This TRADOC Pamphlet 525-5 represents the continuation of change, continuity, and growth, enabling the Army to continue as a relevant, strategic force capable of decisive victory into the twenty-first century.
