Abstract:

The 2K-10K force analysis study was conducted by the Study Directorate of the Training and Doctrine Commands TRADOC Analysis Center TRAC. This document is the final report for the 10K force analysis. The 2K force analysis was a separate study published under separate cover. The 2K-10K force analysis began with a tasking from the Early Entry Lethality and Survivability EELS Battle Lab BL reflecting a desire to evaluate various EELS-designed force designs where the early entry force is light, deployable, high lethal, survivable, and readily sustainable. The 2K analysis focused on individual weapon system contributions to a brigade-size force performing an early entry mission. The 10K force analysis evaluated and compared three force designs provided by the EELS BL for lethality, survivability, deployability, and sustainability. The results of both studies verify the need for specific weapon systems, and the 10K force analysis outlines the strengths and weaknesses of force designs considered in performing an unopposed early entry mission.
