NKA Attack Formation NKA combat organization is determined by the mission assigned, terrain, and enemy capabilities. Combat formations are divided into the forward element, the first and second maneuver echelons, and the reserves. The first echelon is responsible for penetrating initial CFC positions and achieving the immediate objective. The second echelon or reserve, is tasked with destroying all bypassed CFC elements. The second echelon is also used to secure the flanks and rear area of the first echelon. The reserve forces are used to reinforce the first and second echelons and as a standby for a counterattack. Divisions and regiments will also have an artillery group (DAG or RAG) consisting of organic artillery augmented with artillery from higher echelons. For offensive operations, forces are organized as follows: 1. Division ■ Forward Element: Reinforced light infantry battalion. ■ First Echelon: Two regiments reinforced by tanks and artillery. Responsible for accomplishing the division's immediate objective, the destruction of CFC's regimental reserve. On order, continue the attack to accomplish subsequent objective of destruction of CFC's division reserve. ■ Second Echelon: One regiment (-). Follows the first echelon by 6-8 km, reinforced by tanks and artillery when committed. On order, continue the attack to accomplish division's subsequent objective. ■ Reserves: Battalion-size element composed of infantry, tank, and antitank reserve. Responsible for flank and rear area security for attacking echelon and mop up operations to exploit success. Acts as replacement or infiltration force as needed. 60
