Title: MLRS Employment Concept
Dialogue: Here you see a typical corps area of operations. MLRS units will be employed with a variety of tactical missions. Regardless of the mission, MLRS units will be positioned as close to the FLOT as possible and some cases, beyond the FLOT, and use their shoot and scoot capability to improve survivability. When providing close support in the the offense, MLRS units move with the maneuver forces they support, stop to fire as required, then move rapidly to rejoin the formation. In the defense, MLRS supports maneuver units by moving laterally along the FLOT. This allows MLRS units to take maximum advantage of their range to protect maneuver units from the destructive effects of the enemy’s indirect fire systems.
