Charles Flynn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Several units in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/land\/2024\/05\/22\/pacific-exercises-help-to-shape-us-armys-watercraft-strategy\/\" target=\"_blank\">Pacific<\/a>, from Hawaii to Alaska, were chosen as part of Army Chief of Staff Gen. Randy George\u2019s initiative, dubbed \u201cTransforming in Contact,\u201d Flynn said in an interview ahead of the Association of the U.S. Army\u2019s annual conference. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBut there\u2019s a whole other transformation in contact that\u2019s going on out here at the operational and theater level.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That transformation has to do with absorbing new organizations and capabilities designed to facilitate the quick incorporation of new tactics and technologies in the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIn my view, that is where the connective tissue occurs between tactical forces and operational and strategic forces that exist in the joint world,\u201d Flynn said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, the Army in the Pacific is the first to get a Theater Information Advantage Detachment, Flynn said. The TIAD is meant to keep its finger on the pulse of how adversarial nations like China and Russia are conducting information warfare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The service has deployed a Security Force Assistance Brigade, a Theater Fires Element and the TIAD into areas near China, Flynn added. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Army has already created two of three <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/land\/2024\/05\/17\/heres-how-the-us-armys-multidomain-task-force-is-contributing-to-aukus\/\">Multidomain Task Forces<\/a> in the Pacific theater, which have been heavily involved in exercises throughout 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The service is planning to build five MDTFs total. Another is based in Europe, while one more will be based at Fort Liberty, North Carolina, and designed to align with global rapid responses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The units will operate across all domains \u2014 land, air, sea, space and cyberspace \u2014 and are equipped with the Army\u2019s growing capabilities, including long-range precision fires.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The MDTFs will take on game-changing capabilities like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/asia-pacific\/2024\/06\/25\/us-armys-new-precision-missile-hit-moving-target-in-pacific-exercise\/\">Precision Strike Missile<\/a>, or PrSM, the Mid-Range Capability missile system and the delayed Long-Range Hypersonic Weapon as part of a Long-Range Fires Battalion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Army in June fired two PrSM missiles in Palau as part of a ship sinking exercise during Valiant Shield. The service also deployed the MRC missile to the Philippines during the Balikatan exercise in May. The MRC missile system, for the time being, will remain in the Philippines, Flynn said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Pacific Army has also established a Theater Strike Effects Group, Flynn added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis theater-level Army space formation is integral for today\u2019s battlefield,\u201d Lt. Gen. Daniel Karbler, then the head of Army Space and Missile Defense Command, said in January. \u201cIt will allow us to leverage the experience of its command team and staff to ensure success at every echelon, ensuring that all our capabilities are being employed when and where they\u2019re needed best.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The group will coordinate with the MDTFs that will use Army space interdiction forces with cyber and electronic warfare capabilities to block adversary defenses, according to the Army\u2019s Space and Missile Defense Command.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As it works through the deployment of these major new capabilities like long-range precision fires, it\u2019s imperative, Flynn said, that the Army is organized properly at the theater level in order to effectively coordinate the right engagement authorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis extra capacity at the Theater Army level is transformational and its organizational changes are in front of the arrival of new technologies, new capabilities and new platforms,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s tailored to the region.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Several units in the Pacific \u2014 from Hawaii to Alaska \u2014 were chosen as part of Army Chief of Staff Gen.
