The research in this study is designed to find out if a mechanized task force scout platoon is adequately equipped, manned, and trained to meet the intelligence requirement of the commander and staff. The current mechanized battalion has a platoon consisting of ten high mobility multipurpose wheeled vehicles (HMMWV) and thirty men to conduct its reconnaissance missions. This configuration has been evaluated at the maneuver training centers, tested in combat operations during Desert Storm, and performed missions during military operation other than war around the world. Over this period of time...
The research in this study is designed to find out if a mechanized task force scout platoon is adequately equipped, manned, and trained to meet the intelligence requirement of the commander and staff. The current mechanized battalion has a platoon consisting of ten high mobility multipurpose wheeled vehicles (HMMWV) and thirty men to conduct its reconnaissance missions. This configuration has been evaluated at the maneuver training centers, tested in combat operations during Desert Storm, and performed missions during military operation other than war around the world. Over this period of time, deficiencies were identified. Despite attempts to rectify these deficiencies, the current scout platoon is still hampered in its ability to effectively provide the reconnaissance and intelligence gathering support for the commander. The scout platoon is challenged to successfully accomplish all of its assigned tasks. As the pace and lethality increase on the modern battlefield these challenges have escalated to a deadly level. This study provides the evidence to confirm that the current scout platoon is not adequately equipped or manned to accomplish its mission. The study will recommend several changes for the scout platoon. The study includes a discussion of the current vehicle and recommendations for a new one. The scout platoon is essential. Reconnaissance and intelligence will be critical factors on future battlefields, just as they are today. The scout platoon must be ready to meet the everchanging environment and fulfill its mission as the "eyes and ears" of the commander.
