its own organic kit or cyber operators, Buckner described a model of tailored forces and capability packages for units based on their geographic region and threats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIncreasingly we recognize that it doesn\u2019t make sense from a capability aspect to give everyone the same thing, that we really do have to tailor our force packages and our capabilities to specific theaters and adversaries,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Units will have organic planners on their staff that can help commanders understand and include cyber and electronic warfare into their plans, even if a specialized cyber unit is not assigned to them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Army Cyber Command is also creating a new Cyber Warfare Support Battalion (CWSB), a unit already approved by the Army that will fall under Army Cyber Command and serve Army-specific missions \u2014 not U.S. Cyber Command joint missions \u2014 to integrate intelligence, cyber, electronic warfare, signals, information operations and fires into one formation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These cyber teams have
