Defining Transformation

• A Definition-Rich Environment
• Commandants Perspective
• You are transforming if you invent something new
• You are transforming if do the same thing
  exponentially better
• Four Pillars
• Operational Changes
• Institutional Agility
• Leap-Ahead Technology
• Acquisition and Business Reform

Commandants 4 PillarsExamples

• Operational Changes
• Companies do what battalions did
• Integrated logistics
• Bridge to USSOCOM
• Seabasing
• Institutional Agility
• 4th MEB(AT)
• TF 58
• MEB or MEU as a warfighter
• Manpower policy changes
• Push decision-making down

• Leap-ahead Technologies
• Tilt-rotor
• STOVL JSF
• AAAV
• MAGTF Expeditionary Family of Fighting Vehicles
  (MEFFVs)
• Acquisition Business Reform
• Speed of technology advance vs 10-year
  acquisition
• Public/Private Ventures
• Better Business Practices

5
MCCDC Transformational Approach

• Think Deep
• Align with U.S. Navy
• Focus on Warfighting Concepts Capabilities
• Use EMWs Integrating Concepts
• Organize, Deploy, Employ
• Produce tools for Joint Force Commanders
• Support 6 QDR Operational Goals

6
Support to QDR Goals

• Main Attack
• Project and sustain forces in anti-access/
  area-denial environments
• Supporting Attacks
• Protect critical bases of operations defeat WMD
• Deny enemies sanctuary with persistent ISR/
  high-volume precision strike
• Assure info systems conduct effective IO
• Enhance capability of space systems and
  supporting infrastructure to provide global C2ISR
• Leverage IT to develop interoperable, joint C4ISR
  to guarantee decision superiority

7
Naval Transformation Strategy

• 9 Objective Capabilities for JFCs
• Focused by
• 3 Operational Concepts encompassing all of the
  functions of naval warfare
• Supported by
• Many DOTMLPF Solutions developed by Services
• Resulting from
• 4 Pillars

8
New Capabilities

• Objective Capabilities for Power Projection
• Sea Basing
• Accelerated Deployment and Employment Time
• Enhanced Sea-borne Positioning of Joint Assets
• Sea Strike
• Time Sensitive Strike
• Persistent Intelligence, Surveillance,
  Reconnaissance
• Sea Based Information Operations
• Ship-To-Objective Maneuver
• Sea Shield
• Ballistic Missile Defense
• Littoral Sea Control
• Organic Mine Countermeasures

SeabasingRevolutionary Operational Concept

• Projecting, protecting and sustaining ALL
  dimensions of networked naval power
• Collapsing strategic deployment times
• Persistent, scalable, and modular
• From a sovereign seabase
• National capabilities in and beyond the littoral
• Assuring access for joint forces worldwide
• Phased At-Sea Arrival and Assembly, Selective
  Offload, and Projection of a MEB-sized Force
  within 5 -7 Days

11
SeabasingPhased Deployment

• Forward-deployed forces provide initial enabling
  capabilities
• Support for Joint Advance Force Ops
• Limited forcible-entry capabilities
• ATF, CVBG, MPF(F), and CLF (Amphibious Strike
  Group) form the initial networked seabase
• Seabase prepared to accept and project additional
  forces

Strategic Agility to Deter Forward
12
SeabasingAt-Sea Arrival Assembly

• Additional forces arrive in-theater via strategic
  lift
• Move intra-theater via HSV, V-22, and other means
• Networking enables en-route collaborative
  planning and rehearsal
• Seabasing maximizes forward combat capability
  with minimal reinforcement and effect on PERSTEMPO

Multiple Methods of Force Closure
13
SeabasingSelective Offload

• V-22 and high-speed surface craft allow
  task-organization at the seabase
• Materiel handling capabilities of MPF(F)
  platforms enable selective off-load
• MPF(F) provides selected equipment for specific
  missions

Raid
Humanitarian Assistance
Tactical Flexibility for Multiple Missions
14
SeabasingIntegrated Power Projection

• Selected forces maneuver directly from Seabase to
  operational objectives deep inland
• Integrated air, surface and sub-surface fires
• Integrated sustainment
• Netted Battleforce operations

Assuring Access without Land Based Airfields and
Ports
15
SeabasingPersistence and Sustainment

• Seabase provides
• Persistent air, surface, and sub-surface fires
• Precision sustainment
• Force protection
• Seamless C4I
• Minimal footprint ashore enables greater maneuver

Enhanced Speed and Freedom of Action
16
SeabasingReconstitution at Sea

• Provides ability to continue missions in the
  theater
• Supports multiple, concurrent, overlapping
  missions
• Supports the at-sea arrival of additional forces

SeabasingOperational Concept of Choice

• Faster Force Closure
• Reduced PERSTEMPO
• Higher OPTEMPO
• Greater Maneuver
