Corps Aviation Brigade Deep Operations: Toward a Sharper Spear.

摘要

This monograph analyzes corps aviation brigade doctrine, and its supporting organization, equipment, and control arrangements, to determine if it enables the aviation brigade to conduct successful deep operations. Doctrine is the centerpiece of this analysis. The monograph first examines the evolution of current corps aviation brigade doctrine, organization, equipment, and command and control arrangements. It then discusses the influence of doctrine on the other three factors. Next, the monograph describes deep operations theory and its implications for the corps aviation brigade. It then uses deep operations theory to analyze aviation brigade deep operations during Operation Desert Storm and recent Battle Command Training Program (BCTP) rotations.
