As combat operations commence, joint force commanders seekdecisive advantage quickly, before close combat if possible, by

exploiting full dimensional leverage to shock, demoralize, and disrupt opponents immediately.

Sustained Combat OperationsSustained Combat Operations

Joint force commanders seek to extend operations throughout theoperational area, and conduct sustained operations when a coup de

main is not possible. During sustained operations, joint force commanders simultaneously employ air, land, sea, space, and SOF.

JD 3-0, “DOCTRINE FOR JOINT OPERATIONS”

Although defense may be the stronger form of war, it is the offensethat is normally decisive. In striving to achieve strategic objectivesmost quickly and at least cost, JFCs will normally seek the earliest

opportunity to conduct decisive offensive operations.

INITIAL DEFENSE

INITIAL OFFENSEFrom time to time elements will fall back to

defensive positions in order to evaluatethe offensive, reconstructive forces, and

resupply, thus enabling more decisiveoffensive operations.

Employment Considerations:Employment Considerations:Linear and Nonlinear OperationsLinear and Nonlinear Operations

Linearity refers primarily to the conduct of operations along lines ofoperations with identified forward line of own troops.

In linear operations, emphasis is placed onmaintaining the position of the land forcein relation to other friendly forces.

ADVANTAGES:Enhances SecurityAllows Build-Up of Forces

In nonlinear operations, land forces orientmore in their assigned objectives. Maritimeoperations, special operations and operationsof insurgent forces tend to be nonlinear.

ADVANTAGES:Expanded LethalityIncreased Offensive TempoGreater Depth of Operations

JD 3-0, “DOCTRINE FOR JOINT OPERATIONS”

JFCs seek to attack enemy strategic centers of gravity, employing appropriate forces and capabilities of the joint force. Such operations

typically continue throughout the overall joint operation.

JD 3-0, “DOCTRINE FOR JOINT OPERATIONS”

The principal purpose of maneuver is to gain positionaladvantage relative to enemy centers of gravity (COGs) in

order to control or destroy those centers of gravity.

Forcible entry is seizing and holding a military lodgment in the face ofarmed opposition. Often, it is the only means to gain access to an

operational area. Forcible entry capabilities give JFCs uniqueopportunities to gain the initiative at the outset of combat operations.

JD 3-0, “DOCTRINE FOR JOINT OPERATIONS”

Interdiction diverts, disrupts, delays, or destroys the enemy’ssurface military potential before it can be used against friendly

forces. Interdiction can be conducted by many elements of the jointforce and can have tactical, operational, and strategic effects.

JD 3-0, “DOCTRINE FOR JOINT OPERATIONS”

Synchronizing interdiction and maneuver (both land and sea)provides one of the most dynamic concepts available to the joint

force. Interdiction and maneuver should not be considered separateoperations, but complementary operations designed to achieve the

JFCs campaign objectives.

Joint force commanders have at their disposal a wide range ofjoint operational tactics, techniques, and procedures to influence

the conduct of actions. Three additional techniques are:

Combat assessment is the determinationof the overalleffectiveness of forcedeployment duringmilitary operations.The assessment effort should be ajoint program,supported at alllevels, designed todetermine if the goalsof the campaign planare being achieved
