Examines several alternative approaches for meeting the Army's force requirements, comparing the advantages and disadvantages of each alternative with those of the current Army and the Army's plan to reorganize the National Guard.

Book Description
The U.S. Army's Cold War focus on the Soviet Union has shifted to fighting smaller conflicts against less formidable foes. Today's Army is also 30 percent smaller than it was a decade ago. In spite of those changes, the composition of the Army has not shifted markedly: the service remains almost equally divided between active-duty and reserve soldiers. A question under debate is whether that composition is well suited to the Army's current role. The Army hopes to make its force structure better suited to its current mission by converting some of the combat forces in the National Guard to support forces. That change would eliminate some of the excess combat forces; but it would not enable the Army to get to regional conflicts more quickly than it can today, nor would it improve the Army's ability to carry out peacekeeping operations. Finally, because the Army's plan would not reduce the overall size of the service, it would not yield significant savings; therefore, the Army may have difficulty finding the funds to acquire the modem weapons it will need.

Weapon Systems Handbook

Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 440
Book Description
July 2019 Printed in BLACK AND WHITE The Army's Weapon Systems Handbook was updated in July 2019, but is still titled "Weapon Systems Handbook 2018." We are printing this in black and white to keep the price low. It presents many of the acquisition programs currently fielded or in development. The U.S. Army Acquisition Corps, with its 36,000 professionals, bears a unique responsibility for the oversight and systems management of the Army's acquisition lifecycle. With responsibility for hundreds of acquisition programs, civilian and military professionals collectively oversee research, development and acquisition activities totaling more than $20 billion in Fiscal Year 2016 alone. Why buy a book you can download for free? We print this so you don't have to. We at 4th Watch Publishing are former government employees, so we know how government employees actually use the standards. When a new standard is released, somebody has to print it, punch holes and put it in a 3-ring binder. While this is not a big deal for a 5 or 10-page document, many DoD documents are over 400 pages and printing a large document is a time- consuming effort. So, a person that's paid $25 an hour is spending hours simply printing out the tools needed to do the job. That's time that could be better spent doing mission. We publish these documents so you can focus on what you are there for. It's much more cost-effective to just order the latest version from Amazon.com. SDVOSB If there is a standard you would like published, let us know. Our web site is usgovpub.com
