Threats Layer “Stand - off” Combined Arms Armies employ organic long-, mid-, and short-range systems to create operational and tactical stand-off that requires attacking functions rather than formations AUSA v7, 4 OCT 2018 Compete Penetrate Dis-Integrate Exploit Re-Compete 2
Central Idea Army forces, as an element of the Joint Force, conduct Multi-Domain Operations to prevail in competition; when necessary, Army forces penetrate and dis-integrate enemy anti-access and area denial systems and exploit the resultant freedom of maneuver to achieve strategic objectives (win) and force a return to competition on favorable terms. Describes three interrelated ways to achieve strategic objectives: ➢ Expand the competition space on favorable terms (preferred method) If necessary: ➢ Win a short conflict by denying initial enemy objectives and achieving an operational position of advantage ➢ Win a protracted conflict by regaining the operational initiative and defeating enemy forces AUSA v7, 4 OCT 2018 Compete Penetrate Dis-Integrate Exploit Re-Compete 3
