Summary |
The Expeditionary Advance Based Operations (EABO) is the USMC¿s concept for presence in the INDOPACIFIC. It should not be a stand-alone USMC capability, but a Naval Service mission, including both planning, and execution. As EABO develops into a concrete doctrine, including the Marine Littoral Regiments (MLRs), the Navy also needs to make some choices on how to support this as a naval capability. Previous work has developed a Lightly Manned Automated Combat Capability (LMACC) which is a now highly developed concept. To this research, the emphasis is on a collection of capabilities needed to realize a sensor cloud, integrate with defensive and offensive capabilities of the MLR, and logistics.. An analysis of the EABO concept, and the addition of a sensor to weapon cloud will be defined and operationalized with a set of assumptions and capabilities. These parameters are used to determine the impact on capability with, and without this bi-modal future sea control force structure. Study parameters and capabilities include CUI resources and with aggregation becomes classified in some respects. Unclassified information on LMACC may be found at https://nps.edu/web/lmacc. |
