2. Integration
3. Lethality
4. Adaptability
5. Depth
6. Synchronization
Foundations of Unified Land Operations (ADRP 3-0)

2. Decisive Action
3. Army Core Competencies
4. Mission Command
Steps of IPB (ATP 2-01.03)
1. Define the operational environment
2. Describe environmental effects on operations
,3. Evaluate the threat / adversary
4. Determine threat / adversary COAs
Mission Statement (FM 3-21.10)
- Who (the unit)
- What (the unit's essential task and type of operation)
- When (time given in the higher-level OPORD)
- Where (the objective or location stated in higher-level OPORD)
- Why (the unit purpose, taken from higher-level concept of the operation)
Decisive Point (ADRP 1-02)
A geographic place, specific key event, critical factor, or function that, when
acted upon, allows commanders to gain a marked advantage over an
adversary or contribute materially to achieving success.
Offensive Tasks (ADRP 3-90)
1. Movement to Contact
2. Attack
3. Exploitation
4. Pursuit
Defensive Tasks (ADRP 3-90)
1. Area Defense
2. Mobile Defense
3. Retrograde
Characteristics of the Offense (ADRP 3-90)
1. Surprise
2. Concentration
3. Audacity
4. Tempo
Characteristics of the Defense (ADRP 3-90)
1. Disruption
2. Flexibility
, 3. Maneuver
4. Mass and Concentration
5. Operations in Depth
6. Preparation
7. Security
Levels of War (ADP 1-01)
1. Strategic
2. Operational
3. Tactical
Fundamentals of Reconnaissance (FM 3-90)
1. Ensure continuous reconnaissance
2. Do not keep reconnaissance assets in reserve
3. Orient on the reconnaissance objective
4. Report information rapidly and accurately
5. Retain freedom of maneuver
6. Gain and maintain enemy contact
7. Develop the situation rapidly
Fundamentals of Security (FM 3-90)
1. Provide early and accurate warning
2. Provide reaction time and maneuver space
3. Orient on the force or facility to be secured
4. Perform continuous reconnaissance
5. Maintain enemy contact
Principles of Direct Fire Control (ATP 3-90.1)
1. Mass the effects of fire
2. Destroy the greatest threat first
3. Avoid target overkill
4. Employ the best weapon for specific target
5. Minimize exposure
6. Plan and implement fratricide avoidance measures
