reportActive / Technical Report | Accesssion Number: AD1176547 | Open PDF

Abstract:

The future operating environment (FOE) will be characterized by increased technological proliferation, resulting in a rapidly changing, complex battlefield with increased precision and lethality. Future adversaries will adapt a combination of hybrid tactics and gray zone strategies to achieve their goals. The Marine infantry is not organized, trained, or equipped for the FOE. To innovate for the future the Marine infantry should organize and adjust manpower policies to adapt to the rapidly changing technological complexity, develop organic combined arms capabilities down to the squad level, and adapt training methods to increase the use of simulation and realistic force-on-force training.
