Purpose of the defense - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅To retain or control terrain gain time economize
forces to allow the the concentration of forces else where and to develop more favorable conditions for
offensive actions
Types of defense - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅Mobile, Area, Linear, reverse slope, and perimeter
Linear defense - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅Most common type of area defense, requires a maximum
employment of forces forward with a small reserve, and has a strong mutual support between forward
units, limited depth and minimum flexibility. Has interlocking and overlapping observation and fields of
fire along the FEBA to preclude penetration. The bulk of the maneuver units is forward to gain
interlocking small arms fire within and between companies. The Amin effort is assigned to the most
likely avenue of enemy approach. The reserve is usually small and used to reinforce forward units to give
depth to the defense to block penetrations or to counterattack to regain key terrain. If available, tanks
form the basis of a counterattack force.
Perimeter defense - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅This defense disposes a unit to meet an attack from all
directions simultaneously. It is a suitable defense for use by the rifle company. The rifle company
prepares a perimeter defense when there are no friendly units adjacent to it. A perimeter defense may
be used in a reserve position, in an assembly area or PB, on a semi-independent, operation, during re-
supply, or when the company is isolated. Reserve plt has a primary function of blocking and counter
attacking penetrations
