  4. Army Perspectives on Seabasing Joint Seabasing: • Offers improved strategic responsiveness and operational agility into anti-access environments. • Potential exists for expanding and improving Army force projection and sustainment. • Critical to view entire future joint force projection challenge: -- Throughout the course of an entire campaign. -- Deliberate comparison with other force projection concepts/capabilities (SDHSS, HLVTOL/SSTOL) • Army will continue collaboration to develop and mature concepts for force projection and associated capabilities.

  5. Army Role in Seabasing/ JFC Viewpoint • Expands employment options for the JFC/provides ability to project Forces into non-traditional and austere Theaters. • Closes the gap between initial entry and follow-on Forces/enables Joint Force to more rapidly conduct decisive operations. • Provides scaleable power projection option to the JFC: retain select functions at sea — sustainment, fire support, medical, maintenance — reduces ashore footprint. • Enables the JFC to project and sustain wider variety of forces for immediate response. • Creates access for employment, provides support and protection to forces during entry operations. • Enables vertical/horizontal maneuver of mounted Forces by heavy lift VTOL aircraft/shallow draft high speed sealift. 5

  6. Army Operational Attributes for the Joint Seabase RSO LOGISTICS ISB MEDICAL C4ISR TAMD OPERATIONAL MANEUVER JOINT FIRES FORCE PROTECTION Critical to include consideration of SDHSS and HLVTOL/SSTOL in concept RSO – Reception, Staging and Onward Movement ISB – Intermediate Staging Base TAMD – Theater Air and Missile Defense C4ISR – Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance

  7. Challenges • Time and space - deployment and sustainment of large Army forces. • Campaign focus – continuity of operations once forces are ashore and beyond. • Vulnerability of sea platforms to attack and natural effects. • Interoperability – compatability of equipment, information systems, processes and procedures. • Lack of connectors – air and sea delivery platforms (number and capacity).

  8. Summary Seabasing … • … has the potential to improve joint Force projection and sustainment. • … provides the JFC expanded options for employment of Forces. • … must be developed in the context of a joint campaign.
