Mix of A / R / EC / FC depends on:• Frequency required• Integration required with other forces• Where it occurs on battlefield and when• Theater-specific conditions

• Primarily provides engineer effects modules required to respond to specific missions

• Organization is modular from squad to company-- Maximum commonality of design-- Fixed organizations with discrete sets of capabilities-- Scalable robustness

• Combines engineer C2 with a baseline of engineer capabilities to augment BCT shortfalls and support other UEx requirements

• Receives -- and depends upon -- modules from force pool for mission specific capabilities

• Engineer units that are organic to Brigade Combat Teams• Provides minimum level of most critical / most frequently required

Engineer mission module forces will be comprised of highly specialized engineer capabilities that will be required by baseline forces to execute missions

Mission module forces will support virtually all of the engineer missions at the theater level

In garrison, the mission modular forces will also contain a battalion HQ that will be responsible for the training readiness and deployment preparation of these modules

Engineer Modules


UNCLASSIFIED

Engineer Baseline and Mission Modules will generally fall under the C2 of an Engineer Battalion HQ

Engineer battle command is a modular system that will separate functions into two types of HQ: Engineer Commands (ENCOM) and Engineer Brigades

ENCOM and Brigade HQs provide command and control over all engineer forces in the force pool that are not supporting a combatant commander for an operation

ENCOMs generally work at the theater level; Engineer Brigades can work at the operational or theater level
