Infantry Brigade Combat Team Combat Vehicle Modernization Strategy

The Combat Vehicle Modernization Strategy, or CVMS, describes the importance of effective, modern combat vehicles in current and anticipated combat operations. The combination of speed, protection and lethality that combat vehicles provide, along with their ability to work in concert with many types of ground forces, provide the Army a critical advantage in defeating enemy forces.

So, the support tail just grew much longer. From utilizing organizational truck companies to move troops, it is suggested that specialized vehicles will be bought, air transported, retrieved, repaired, etc. for "foot" infentry units. Will there be a new level of infentry: "Mechanized Infentry, Light"? How many additional mechanics and techs will these units have to include that will not be infentry? Will this be issued at one company per battalion, one battalion per brigade, or larger units? How many more air and sea transports will we need? Particularly in MOUT situations, have these been tested? Will they be robust enough for the bigger threat of IEDs? Will there save lives or add risks...we already know infentry will always be tired. Good luck. How many companies have come forward and swore they will build them AT COST PLUS $100 EACH? It is just money, right?

The logic of presentations like this seems to be, "Well wouldn't it be nice if everyone could have everything?"

[@utoobdruid]

Only trouble I see is... you have Tankers and Mech troops coming in with Airborne Light Fighters.... don't assume any infantryman can operate anything given to them... it takes training and a lot of experience before you get good at something.... so you are painting a computer vehicle simulation without taking the skills necessary to both operate and fight with these vehicles.

82nd Abn Div had M551 Sheridans for decades. Should it not be assumed that well trained Abn tanker MOSs will be operating the proposed new light tanks? Same goes for the scout/fire support wheeled auto-cannon/co-ax 7.62 platform. The transport variant just looks like a long bed hummer. This vid seems more about a new spin on an old problem - how best to integrate motorization and support of foot infantry units.

WOW! what a great video,,,

Seems neat ,clean and easier viewed than done. That's all I'm saying, I mean this is a cartoon Right ! 120 pounds on his backside, that's more than half his body weight because like hell if that dismounted infantry man is allowed to be 240 pounds, excuse me while I fall flat on my face !

There's a big difference between efficiency and effectiveness...

[@schlirf]

Uh, did someone just happen to forget logistics support? Those fire support vehicles will need a lot fuel and ammo, as will everyone else. Might want to head back to the drawing board on this one.

[@jepkratz]

Logistics is outside the scope of this 10 min concept vid. Airborne units have been landing vehicles for many decades, and logistics is a very important factor in planning doctrine and operations. The inclusion of motorized/mechanized capabilities into traditional foot infantry certainly would increase the logistics requirements to keep units operational, but logistics problems alone certainly do not preclude vehicles from airborne/air mobile/air transportable/mountain units.

[@jackie520]

WRONG. They already have the fuel and ammo they require for this mission either inside the vehicles or air dropped along with the vehicles. As for the troops they carry the supplies necessary for the mission in their equipment (tactical gear and rucksacks). Once they take the airbase then logistics may come into play. They may have to hold it and defend it from counter attacks (to prevent the enemy from re-taking and re-using it). They will be resupplied through helicopters and ac-130 tactical airlifts. Or they may just completely destroy the airbase and render it inoperable (so the enemy doesn't use it again) then exfiltrate.

[@schlirf]

@@jackie520 hope you're correct. Hated to EE or Exfil as its known today. However, two words come to mind: Market and Garden.

[@bermanmo6237]

The animation looks like the same concept before the tv cartoon adaption of the GI Joe comics since it is the same idea. I guess Cobra is like Al Qaeda. Ironically, some of the memberships are not Arabs or other Middle Eastern Group, but middle class
Europeans. Or they are financed by rich Saudis. In Cobra, Destro come from a Scottish landowner family. Baroness came from European nobility. The twins are CEO of a major corporation. So, terrorists often are not your stereotype anarchist, religious fanatics, mercenaries, or the poor and desolute. They come from all social classes. So in the case of Destro, he is in it for the money since a large part of his family's income come from weapon production. Of course, he is also Cobra's main source of weapons. So are the Twins since they provide the financing for Cobra's operations.
