POM-17 Marine Corps Capabilities Analysis

1. POM-17 Marine Corps Capabilities Analysis • Objective • Identify current and future capability requirements, including tasks along with their associated conditions and performance standards that are necessary to execute Expeditionary Force 21. • Inputs: • Guidance (Expeditionary Force 21) • Marine Corps CBA Wargame(Scenario and CONOPS) • Previous MCCL (POM-16) • Outputs: • Updated MCCL • Capability Requirements (Tasks, Conditions, Standards) • Gap Analysis • Similar to the capabilities review process, a series of Gap Review Working Groups (organized by JCA) will be conducted April-May 2014 to review and update (as required) the Marine Corps Gap List (MCGL).

2. Top Ten Capabilities With Associated Programs • 3.1 Maneuver Forces (ACV, AAV, MPC, JLTV, Family of Raid/Reconnaissance Equipment) • 1.2 Force Preparation (Ground Based Air Defense - Transformation) • 5.5 Direct Execution (Ground/Air Task Order Radar (G/ATOR), AN/TPS 59/63 mods) • 4.1 Provide Deployment and Distribution Support (MPC, JLTV, MTVR, Family of Trailers) • 5.2 Understand (GCCS-MC, CAC2S, RQ-21A UAS, G/ATOR, MAGTF C2) • 5.1 Organize (G-BOSS, TLDHS, WFVPS, MARCIM, JSTARS) • 5.2 Conduct Planning (MAGTF C2, CAC2S, AFATDS, TBMCS) • 6.1 Transport Information (DDS-M, AIT, LMST, SMART-T, CAC2S, NOTM) • 3.2 Engage Targets (G/ATOR, AFATDS, MCIOC, USMC CREW Systems) • 2.1 Plan and Direct Intelligence Operations (MAGTF C2, GCSS-MC, Special Intelligence Program, UAS Sensor Payloads)

3. ACV History High Water Speed Possible But at a Cost: • $12-14 Million Per Vehicle • Initial Operating Capability 2022 • New Technology – Program Risk • Not Optimized for 90% of Mission • Land Operations • Force Protection at least 1X • Limited Growth Potential • Avg Growth 20-25% • High Fuel Consumption at Sea • Less Than Acceptable Reliability • Initial Requirement for High Water Speed 1013 (12 BNs of lift) • 2011 EFV Cancelled...Cost and Operational Effectiveness • 2012 Established a Cross Functional Project Office to Look at ACV Options • 26 Years and 3 Billion Dollars Later Time for a Revised Acquisition Strategy 3

4. Littoral Maneuver Threat Assessment • Threat ISR and proliferation have changed standoff requirements. • Crisis response is come as you are w/limited ability to conduct shaping. • Complications of ASBM and CDCM defense place demands on DDG / CG capacity to protect the amphib force • The ability to close amphibious ships to 1-2 nm or even 12 nm in an area denial environment requires defeat of CDCM and escort to defeat leakers. 300 nm + ASBM; Sky Wave Radar 165 nm ASCM; Early Warning Radar 65nm C802 25 nm Coastal Radar <10.8 nm ASCM; AAA, Air Def; Mines; Small Boat; GRAMM

5. ACV Concept of Employment • Protected Mobility (2X) for Infantry and attached Marines and Sailors • Lethality to support dismounted infantry and defend the vehicle with precision fires. • Maneuver in complex terrain – congested, urban, on/off road • River-crossing/shore-to-shore, near-shore launch from connectors • C2 to support distributed operations • One ACV-equipped AA Company provides armored lift for one Infantry Battalion. • Two vehicles carry a reinforced rifle squad with full combat load and 2x DOS • Two vehicles can act as a base of fire and maneuver element (over-watch / traveling – over-watch capable) • Crew member tasks: Vehicle command, operation/maintenance, precision gunnery • Mission Role Variants will support C2 and Logistics/Recovery requirements

6. Amphibious Vehicle Replacement Strategy Proposed Acquisition Objectives (IOC FY 19 to ~ 35) Key Considerations • Must acquire a “Family of Systems” to accomplish the mission • High Water Speed is achievable in the near term via connectors • No changes to current Amphibious Shipbuilding Plan • No change to currently programmed connectors • Vehicle Squared is a finite resource(Amphibs, MPSRON, connectors) AAV Survivability Upgrade and Sustainment 392 Purchase Non-Developmental ACV (Personnel Variant) 204 ACV Mission Role Variants (C2, Log, other) 490 Potential Competitors Connector Strategy Work closely with our Naval partners on the next generation of surface connectors.
