25 Abstract Title: DELIVERING FUTURE ARMAMENT REQUIREMENTS FOR U.S. SPECIAL OPERATIONS COMMAND Author(s): Mrs. Patricia Alameda, Mr. Brian Connelly & Mr. Ralph Tillinghast Abstract: The challenges of providing real time solution to Special Operations Units can be difficult. They are tasked with providing unique support at any time and location as needed. This outlines the question of what are the challenges in ensuring combat effectiveness for the Special Operations Command and the Army? Also how has this effected the requirements for Mortar Fire Control and how have they changed over the past 5-10 years? Lastly how are developing technologies for mobile protected firepower and precision-munitions driving other new requirements? 25
