  process and the strategic mobility triad
• Discuss deployment planning considerations within
  the planning process

DEPLOYMENT

• Rapidly and effectively deploy and sustain US
  forces in and from multiple, dispersed locations
  
  NMS
• Force projection, enabled by forward presence and
  rapid mobility, is critical to US deterrence and
  warfighting capabilities NMS
• Movement of forces and their sustainment from
  their point of origin to a specific operational
  area to conduct Joint Operations outlined in a
  given plan or order
  JP 3-35

DEPLOYMENT PHASES

• Predeployment Activities (OPT, )
• Movement to and activities at Point of
  Embarkation (POE)
• Movement to Point of Debarkation (POD)
• RSOI

AIRLIFT

• Provides rapid mobility with limited haul
  capacity
• Several Options available
• Air Mobility Command (AMC)
• Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF)
• Commercial
• May be used in conjunction with Prepo
• Transports 10 of cargo (historically)

IPB FOR DEPLOYMENT

• Threat assessment
• Broad geographical perspective
• Include all transportation nodes and links
• Infrastructure assessment
• Key to understanding throughput

MISSION ANALYSIS

• Deployment Considerations
• Cmdrs Intent for deployment
• Time Phasing
• Forces Available
• Planning Factors
• Force Closure date
• Constraints / Restraints
• JOPES Information
• Multi-national / Alliance Considerations
• Host Nation Support

COMMANDERS PLANNING GUIDANCE

• Deployment Considerations
• Sequencing of forces
• Load configuration
• Forces vs. sustainment
• Footprint / Force Closure

20
COA DEVELOPMENT

• Deployment considerations
• Requirements entered into JOPES
• Infrastructure
• Gross Transportation FeasibilityTotal pax
  short tons No. days to close throughput
• Sequence forces for each feasible COA

21
COA WAR GAME

• Deployment considerations
• Scrub the force list
• Analyze the flow -- doesit support the CONOPS?
• Refine the TPFDD
• Forward to TRANSCOM for Deployment Estimate

22
FORCE SEQUENCING
23
COA COMPARISON/DECISION

• Deployment Considerations
• Receive and review TRANSCOM deployment estimate
• Conduct TPFDD refinement and resubmission as
  required

MSTP OBSERVATIONS

• The OPT effort should be coupled with broad staff
  participation (staff estimates) because both are
  critical to effective deployment planning
• Deployment planning is operators business
• Recognize real world shortcomings in deployment
  planning and execution
• Availability of trained deployment personnel
  (JTF, component, and MEF level)
• Detailed Joint doctrine and TTP
• Availability of tools that support deployment
  planning and force tracking

26
SUMMARY

• Discussed the deployment process and the
  strategic mobility triad
• Discussed deployment planning considerations
  within the planning process
