Chapter 3 Figure 3-5. Example of a DRT conducting route reconnaissance 3-72. The DRT normally performs a tactical foot march to the LD and deploys to execute reconnaissance of the route unless transportation has been arranged. Based on the amount and quality of intelligence known about the enemy, the commander determines how much security is required for the move to the LD. The commander also considers the effect his final disposition of forces will have on the troop’s follow-on mission. The DRT commander considers the following as he develops his route reconnaissance plan during troop-leading procedures. (For a detailed list of considerations under each category, refer to the discussion of zone reconnaissance earlier in this chapter.) Friendly force considerations, including the following: Missions of other elements that support troop reconnaissance, such as Prophet or SUAS. Missions of other elements operating within the troop AO but not under troop control. The enemy situation, including the following: Types and capabilities of likely enemy weapons systems, NVDs and related systems, and communications systems. The squadron’s enemy COAs, including a SITTEMP depicting composition, known and template dispositions, and potential EAs. Potential enemy COAs include ambushes along the route in close or restricted terrain or tied to obstacles along the route and attack by longrange direct or indirect fires from dominating terrain along the route. 3-18 ATTP 3-20.97 16 November 2010
Terrain and weather considerations, including the following: Reconnaissance Operations Effects on SUAS and other aviation assets for reconnaissance, CASEVAC, or fire support. Effects on civilian traffic flow. Civil considerations, including the following: Local government jurisdictions that encompass the route. Relief agencies and other NGOs using the route. Dislocated civilians using the route. 3-73. The DRT commander develops his intent to address the following: Key reconnaissance tasks that must be accomplished during the route reconnaissance. Purpose for reconnaissance in relation to the squadron’s reconnaissance objective. Endstate for reconnaissance. 3-74. The DRT commander develops a concept of the operation that describes, as a minimum, the following: (This outline lists items specific to the route reconnaissance; for a detailed list of additional considerations under each category, refer to the discussion of zone reconnaissance earlier in this chapter.) Focus and tempo for reconnaissance. Reconnaissance of the route to answer the applicable information requirement, including the following: Identifies requirements to reconnoiter and classify the route or designated portions of the route. Identifies requirements to conduct an area reconnaissance of designated terrain on the flanks of the route. Selects movement techniques that support the tempo. Specifies actions at built-up areas and actions on contact with enemy forces or civilians. Transition to follow-on mission after completing the reconnaissance or reaching the LOA. If necessary, synchronization of target acquisition assignments with reconnaissance tasks. Integration of other elements or assets into the reconnaissance effort, including SUAS and Army aviation assets, Prophet, ground sensors, engineers, and CBRN reconnaissance elements (to reconnoiter for contamination and bypasses). Locations and criteria for RHO. Priorities of fire and use of fires to maintain maximum indirect fire range forward of the platoons. Bypass and engagement criteria for elements conducting the route reconnaissance. Commitment criteria and actions of the reconnaissance squadron’s reaction force or reserve in support of the DRT’s infiltration, movement, and reconnaissance. Graphic control measures that support the concept of the operation, including the following: Boundaries identifying the troop’s AO and subordinate element boundaries lateral to the route to support reconnaissance on the flanks. Routes, including SPs, RPs, and checkpoints for other critical points. Phase lines and contact points for coordination with other elements. LOA. 3-75. Considerations for sustainment and communications during the route reconnaissance are the same as those for zone reconnaissance, as outlined earlier in this chapter. RECONNAISSANCE IN FORCE 3-76. A reconnaissance in force is a deliberate combat operation designed to discover or test the enemy’s strength, dispositions, and reaction, or to obtain other information. A commander uses a reconnaissance in force when the enemy is known to be operating within an area, and the commander cannot obtain adequate intelligence by other means. A unit may also conduct a reconnaissance in force in restrictive terrain where the enemy is likely to ambush smaller reconnaissance forces. A reconnaissance in force is an aggressive 16 November 2010 ATTP 3-20.97 3-19
