NEW SERIES OF THREAT TACTICS REPORTS COMING SOON
by H. David Pendleton (CGI CTR), TRADOC G-2 ACE Threats Integration
The TRADOC G-2 ACE Threats Integration (ACE-TI) team will soon begin releasing a
series of Threat Tactics Reports (TTRs) on the
most likely methods threat actors would use to
fight American forces. The first release is “North
Korea versus the United States,” to be followed
by similar products on Russia, China, and Iran.
The intent of this TTR series is to illustrate how a
threat actor would fight the US Army at the
brigade combat team level, as opposed to how it
would fight or is currently fighting a less-capable
adversary.
While each TTR is unique to a particular threat
actor, they will all follow a similar format. After
providing a short background on the threat
actor, three major sections follow:
Section 1 provides information on the type of maneuver brigade/division
most commonly fielded by the threat actor. This section also includes a unit
order of battle and a listing of its most numerous and/or dangerous
weapons.
Section 2 gives a description of the threat actor’s tactics and techniques as
written in its doctrine and/or used in recent combat. The terms used in this
section are those of the threat actor.
Section 3 addresses how the threat actor’s maneuver brigade/division
would fight the US in combat. Terms used in this section are primarily from
the Training Circular (TC) 7-100 series.
Each TTR, once published, will be available on the Army Training Network (ATN)
and the All Partners Access Network (APAN). For questions about a particular TTR,
contact the author listed for that product.
