FM 1 describes the American profession of arms, the Army's place in it, and what it means to be a professional Soldier. All Soldiers should understand and internalize them. They form the foundation for all Army doctrine. The most important of these are the Army's operational concept and the fundamentals that support it. FM 1 establishes the fundamental principles for employing Landpower.
#FM 11 SERIES MANUAL#
This manual is produced by Headquarters, US Army Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC).Īs a bonus, this reproduction includes FM-1, The Army Field Manual, a capstone manual containing the vision for the Army - sold separately for $5.99. The three systems are Improved high frequency radio (IHFR) Single-Channel Ground and Airborne Radio System (SINCGARS) and Single-channel tactical satellite (TACSAT)." Each system has different capabilities and transmission characteristics. The CNR network is designed around three separate radio systems. However, the increase in complexity and number of different radio types also increases the predeployment planning necessary to ensure completely operational communications networks. Joining active electronic and passive ECCM techniques with multiple radio sets in the C2 system provides effective communications to control ground and airborne forces. Each system takes advantage of a different transmission path increasing the probability that at least one communications system will work at any given time. The combination of high frequency (HF), very high frequency (VHF), and ultra high frequency (UHF) radios gives commanders redundant, but different, means to control their forces. This provides the maneuver force commander with a reliable multifaceted C2 communications system. Single-channel radios are being upgraded or replaced. It degrades enemy forces' abilities to find, monitor, or destroy friendly systems. Frequency hopping (FH) is a spread-spectrum radio technique. Adding electronic counter-countermeasures (ECCM) modules and devices makes radios and command and control (C2) facilities more survivable. "Modern semiconductor technology has made high-speed signal processing part of everyday life and has enhanced communications systems capabilities. It also gives the system planner the necessary steps for network planning, interoperability considerations, and equipment capabilities." It gives operators and supervisors basic guidance and operating instructions. This manual is intended for operators, supervisors, and planners to provide a common reference for new CNR radios. It also suggests items to consider for battalion and brigade standing operating procedures (SOPs). This manual describes equipment setups and planning steps for CNR systems. This manual describes new systems being fielded and provides specific doctrinal uses for each of those systems. It also addresses FH radios in the single-channel mode.
#FM 11 SERIES FULL#
It addresses planning and operating techniques and considerations to ensure full interoperability of new generation frequency-hopping (FH) radios with the previous generation and with allied nation single-channel radios.
This manual provides guidance for using single channel radios on the modern battlefield.
#FM 11 SERIES MANUALS#
It does not replace field manuals governing combat, combat support (CS), or combat service support (CSS) unit tactical deployment or technical manuals on equipment use. "This manual serves as a reference document for combat net radio (CNR) systems. Professionally converted for accurate flowing-text e-book format reproduction, the Combat Net Radio Operations Field Manual (FM 11-32) covers the use of single-channel radios on the modern battlefield.
