10-22 _________________________________________________________________________________________________ MCWP 3-16.1 The XO coordinates the staff to assist the operations officer in developing the order. The XO will dictate, from guidance of the CO, the format of the order, set and enforce timelines, and determine which enclosures will be published and by which staff section. See figure 10-19 for an example format of the artillery fire plan brief. Preparation of the Order or Plan Situation Expands upon higher or supported unit OPORD/ fire support appendix situation. Focus on fire support issues and assets. Figure 10-19. Example Format of the Artillery Fire Plan Brief.
Artillery Operations __________________________________________________________________________________________ 10-23 ● Threat forces: Address the number, type, and capabilities of the threat fire support assets to include expected number of air sorties. Describe any ground or air threats to subordinate units. Identify the threat center of gravity or critical vulnerabilities. ● Friendly forces: Contains the missions of higher artillery HQ or supported maneuver unit. Missions of adjacent and supporting are also included. State the maneuver commander’s intent for fires if DS or the higher artillery commander’s intent if GS or GS/R. ● Attachments and Detachments: If any, describe when and how long this is effective and for whom. ● Assumptions: List any additional assumptions not in higher or supported orders. Mission The mission statement is a concise statement of what the artillery is to accomplish. If there are any reinforcing units, include them in the mission statement. Execution ● Commander’s Intent: This is where the artillery commander briefly describes EFATs, what he sees as the friendly and threat center of graviety, and his desired end state with respect to the relationship among the force as a whole, the threat, and terrain. ● Concept of artillery support: This is the commander’s visualization of artillery support for the operation, by phase or EFAT, to the desired end state. It is written in sufficient detail to enable appropriate action by subordinate units in the absence of more specific instructions. This paragraph should tie in the concept of fires with the supported unit’s scheme of maneuver. ● Organization for combat: This is a clear statement of organization for combat and tactical missions assigned to subordinate units. “On order” and “be prepared to” missions are included in this paragraph. ● Tasks to subordinate units: These instructions detail specific tasks assigned to batteries, including specific EFATs. Tasks should be assigned by battery, reinforcing unit or phase. ● Coordinating instructions: As the last paragraph of the “execution’ paragraph, it includes instructions and details that pertain to two or more subordinate elements. Some of these instructions may be developed into enclosures to the artillery fire plan. This sub-paragraph may address the following: ❍ Target acquisition. ❍ Liaison requirements. ❍ Survey. ❍ Schedules/programs of fire. ❍ Automated fire control. ❍ PIR. ❍ High-payoff target list. ❍ Ammunition restrictions. ❍ Attack guidance matrix. ❍ Antifratricide measures. ❍ NBC defense/MOPP level. ❍ Checkpoints. ❍ Met. ❍ Rehearsal times. Administration Times, location, and format of personnel accountability and strength reports are detailed. Logistics This paragraph describes how the artillery unit will logistically support itself in the accomplishment of the mission. Ammunition resupply, maintenance procedures, location of field and combat trains, deployment of the unit’s aid station. Procedures to request logistics support is described. This subparagraph lists the locations of unit CPs/ COCs, location of the commander, and succession of both fire direction responsibility and command.
