Maneuver training Sample Clauses

Maneuver training. ‌ Maneuver training is the primary military tactical training and includes battlefield movement by vehicle (mounted maneuvers) and on foot (dismounted maneuvers). Maneuver training is usually conducted at the platoon (16-40 soldiers) or company (100-200 soldiers) level, but may occasionally involve a battalion (500-900 soldiers). Mounted maneuvers occur on roads and trails and wherever terrain, vegetation density, slope, and administrative factors allow. Off-road maneuvers are only conducted within a portion of PTA known as the Keʻāmuku Maneuver Area (KMA). Mounted maneuvers are conducted with a wide variety of light, medium and heavy wheeled tactical and logistical vehicles to transport troops, equipment, and supplies. Vehicles range from small four-wheeled Humvees (HMMWVs) to large multi-axel tractor trailers. All Army wheeled vehicles are narrow enough to be driven on public roads. Mounted maneuvers may also involve rotary aircraft including a variety of helicopters, such as the UH-60 Blackhawk and XX-00 Xxxxxxx, as well as Marine V-22 Osprey tilt-rotor aircraft. Construction equipment and tracked amphibious vehicles are used at PTA. Dismounted maneuvers may occur anywhere that safety or administrative restrictions permit but are most frequently conducted along roads and trails with vehicular support. Maneuver training may entail the use of defensive fighting positions, which can range from soldiers lying in concealed positions, to digging individual fighting positions using hand tools, up to large crew-served weapons emplaced using heavy equipment excavators. The type and size of defensive fighting position is based on the amount of time at a given location. Individual fighting positons are dug by hand and usually encompass at least two square meters and extend from 18 inches to four feet deep. Larger positions for crew-served weapons may be hand-dug or machine-excavated, encompass 20-30 square meters, and be four feet deep or more. Digging and excavation is conducted according to the standard operating procedures (SOP), and is only conducted in areas where historic properties are absent, or have been marked as “no-go” zones. Where permitted by Army command, units may use blank ammunition while field artillery and mortar fire is simulated by pyrotechnics to provide sound and visual effects to condition units for operations in a battlefield environment. The use of blank ammunition and pyrotechnics is not considered to be live-fire. Maneuver training wit...
