Abstract:

The Aviation Attack Battalion Study AABS was conducted by the Production Analysis Directorate of the Training and Doctrine Command TRADOC analysis Center TRAC. This document is the final report for the AABS. The study began with a tasking from the Training and Doctrine Command to identify the benefits and liabilities involved in replacing the OH-58C with the AH-64A as the scout helicopter in the heavy division attack helicopter battalion. TRAC was directed to conduct a study using force-on-force simulations to examine the impact of the proposed Aviation Restructure Initiative design of the attack helicopter battalion while considering the Army modernization objectives. The Aviation Restructure Initiative focuses on providing an aviation force that win support the new National Military Strategy for a continental United States-based force projection Army.
