WASHINGTON \u2014 Something as seemingly simple as picking the right commercial boat radar could make or break the U.S. Marine Corps\u2019 vision for future operations: small units dispersed on islands and beachheads across contested waters, all looking for enemy ships and planes while gathering information to create a common picture of the theater.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But identifying the best radar is more complex than it sounds, according to Col. Matthew Danner, who leads the Japan-based 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said Marines are experimenting with the new Expeditionary Advanced Base Operations concept to identify how many people are needed at these temporary, remote posts; what gear they need; and how they can best support the larger naval and joint force.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though these expeditionary advanced bases could perform a range of missions, the 31st MEU focused on sensing expeditionary advanced bases during its two short deployments in 2023, Danner told Defense News during a Jan. 4 media roundtable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhat they typically consist of is a ground sensor capability \u2026 that will enable us to provide remote sensing capability offshore, and then the radars to provide surface radar out to 40 or 50 nautical miles,\u201d he explained. \u201cAnd then we link those collections into other sensor EABs [expeditionary advanced bases], we feed it up into joint architecture, and then that contributes to the common operational picture that enables the joint task force or the geographic combatant commander to understand the battle space and employ certain capabilities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not all radars are created equal; it depends on the environment, Danner added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThere are certain radars that blend into the operating environment better in the Baltic Sea, that are going to stick out [in the Pacific] and become very, very obvious because they\u2019re not the types of radar that are used in the [area],\u201d he said. \u201cUsually it has to do with blending into the electromagnetic spectrum so that our collections don\u2019t stand out from the normal environment itself,\u201d allowing enemy forces to find and target the Marines at expeditionary bases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Col. Samuel \u201cLee\u201d Meyer, who commanded 13th MEU during its deployment last year, previously told Defense News<\/a> his sensing EABs included about 30 to 50 Marines who moved ashore using helicopters or surface connectors. Those forces \u201cprovided a risk-worthy, low-cost, low-footprint option to get eyes and ears on an area where the Navy may not be, or may not be able to maintain persistence.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meyer said he experimented with Shield AI\u2019s V-Bat drone to provide live video feeds and with Simrad commercial boating radar to build maritime domain awareness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Danner said his forces used a couple models of the Furuno boating radar, as well as a top secret-level communication tool called Athena\u2019s Trident.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
