  1. CBRN THREAT BRIEF 031UTD01 Prepared by: 031UTD01

  2. ADMINISTRATIVE • Safety Requirements: None • Risk Assessment: Low • Environmental Considerations: No major environmental impact, training entirely of a classroom nature with no major impact on the environment, equipment, or personnel. • Evaluation: None 031UTD01

  3. TERMINAL LEARNING OBJECTIVE Action: Identify the current threat environment and situations that U.S. Troops face today. Conditions: Given an instructor led discussion in a classroom environment. Standards: Identified the current threat Environment and situations that U.S. Troops face today to include; 031UTD01

  4. TERMINAL LEARNING OBJECTIVE • Identified locations of possible deployments or conflicts with enemies of the United States. • Identified possible enemies with NBC capabilities • Identified the different types of Chemical and Biological Agents 031UTD01

  5. TERMINAL LEARNING OBJECTIVE • Identified Protective measures • Supervise unit for Nuclear attack • Supervise unit for Biological attack • Supervise unit for Chemical attack 031UTD01

  6. How did this happen? 031UTD01

  7. Russia • Formerly the Soviet Union and head of the WARSAW PACT • Sold weapons during the “cold war” to nations now having ties to terrorists • Conditions so bad WMD’s found missing or for sale by soldiers on the black market 031UTD01

  8. The Spread of Chemical Weapons 031UTD01

  9. The Spread of Chemical Weapons 031UTD01

  10. The Spread of Chemical Weapons 031UTD01

  11. The Results 2000+ Nukes, Advanced Chemical Program Claims Limited Bio Program Possible 2-10 Nukes, Claims 200, 5000 Tons of Nerve, Blister, and Blood agents, Limited Bio Program, anthrax, plague, or yellow fever. Small Nuke power program, no known weapons, Limited Bio program, small chemical stockpile from Iran-Iraqi war China North Korea Iran 031UTD01

  12. The Results Syria Sudan Russia No Nuke program Limited Bio Program Chemical arsenal includes VX gas and Sarin Dumping ground for other countries, No Nukes or Bio. Limited Chemical Program Large modern Nuke program, Surviving Bio program Continues, Worlds largest stockpile of Chemical Weapons 031UTD01

  13. Summary/Check on Learning What was the major incident that propagated the spread of WMD? What are some countries that pose a major concern that posses WMD? The ending of the cold war and breakup of the Soviet Union China, North Korea, Iran, Syria, Russia, Sudan 031UTD01

  14. Chemical VS Biological Chemical agents are typically manmade through the use of industrial chemical processes. Biological agents are either replicating agents (bacteria or viruses) or non replicating materials (toxins) that can be produced by living organisms. 031UTD01

  15. CHEMICAL WARFARE AGENTS BLOOD HYDROGEN CYANIDE CHOKING CLORINE, PHOSGENE BLISTER MUSTARD, LEWISITE NERVE NEW AGENTS SARIN, VX NOVICHOK 031UTD01

  16. CHEMICAL WARFARE AGENTS Advantages • Easy to produce with dual use technology • Simple “homemade” agents available to terrorists, i.e. Sarin • Easy to use on multiple targets and different delivery systems. 031UTD01

  17. BIOLOGICAL WARFARE AGENTS BACTERIA TOXINS Anthrax Tularemia Botulinum Plague Saxitoxin Q-Fever Mycotoxin VIRUSES SEB VEE fever Snake, spider, etc. Yellow fever Smallpox Hemorrhagic fever viruses 031UTD01

  18. Biological Warfare Agents • Advantages: • No reliable detection devices available • No recognizable signals to human exposure • Can specifically target personnel, crops, livestock or specific kinds of material. • Disadvantages: • Ultimate consequences uncertain • Potential for international outrage 031UTD01

  19. Nonlethal Agents Riot Control Agents: Tear Gas Agents: CS, CN Vomiting Agents: Adamsite, Diphenyl Chloroarsine Incapacitants: Psychochemicals: LSD, BZ 031UTD01

  20. Delivery Means • NBC Delivery Systems: •   (1). Missiles •   (2). Rockets •   (3). Bombs •   (4). Artillery •   (5). Mines •   (6). Remote piloted vehicles •   (7). Sprayers 031UTD01

  21. Summary/Check on Learning What is the difference between chemical and biological agents? What are some chemical warfare agents? What are some delivery systems? Chemical agents are manmade, biological agents can be produced by living organisms Blood, Choking, Blister, Nerve Missiles, Rockets, Bombs, Artillery, Mines, RPV’s, Sprayers 031UTD01

  22. Conventional NBC Targets • Large numbers of Troops or military vehicles. • Bridges and highways. • Large fixed sites such as Airfields 031UTD01

  23. Non-Conventional NBC Targets Targets Include: • Agriculture • Livestock • Water supplies 031UTD01

  24. Summary/Check on Learning What are some conventional targets? What are some non-conventional targets? Troops, vehicles, bridges, highways Agriculture, livestock, water supplies 031UTD01

  25. ADVISE COMMANDER ON NBC THREAT 031UTD01

  26. ADVISE COMMANDER ON NBC THREAT • Estimate the unit's vulnerability to the NBC threat • Analyze the enemy's position and capabilities on the battlefield • Advise on the appropriate protective measures and MOPP level 031UTD01
