The force is still too small, Army chief says, and Afghanistan withdrawal won t really help

The force is still too small, Army chief says, and Afghanistan withdrawal won’t really help 1 hour ago U.S. troops secure the perimeter at an undisclosed location in Afghanistan on March 17, 2020. (Staff Sgt. Joel Pfiester/Air Force) Ending the U.S. military presence in Afghanistan won’t be of much use to Army planners sweating the size of the force, as fiscal constraints loom large over the service in the coming years. The Army’s end-strength growth, once expected to top 500,000 active-duty soldiers, has slowed to a crawl in recent years and currently sits at roughly 485,000 troops. “This is the same size Army that we had on 9/11, and when I take a look at what the requirements are, when I take a look at what historically we needed, and now that we’re in a time of great power competition, I’m very, very concerned about the size of the Army,” Chief of Staff Gen. James C. McConville said during a Tuesday discussion at the Center for a New American Security.

Ansbach-based Army unit first to get new mobile air defense system

By JOHN VANDIVER | STARS AND STRIPES Published: April 26, 2021 STUTTGART, Germany A Germany-based U.S. Army unit is the first to field a new mobile air defense system that boosts the military’s ability to defend against threats while soldiers are on the move, the service announced. The 5th Battalion, 4th Air Defense Artillery Regiment based in Ansbach will use the Maneuver Short Range Air Defense system, known as M-SHORAD, mounted on its Stryker A1 vehicles. The system will “defend maneuvering forces against unmanned aircraft systems, rotary-wing and fixed-wing threats,” the Army said in a statement Friday. The M-SHORAD integrates existing guns, missiles, rockets and sensors. Future variants will include directed-energy capabilities, the Army said.

The Army Upgrades its Air Defense Capabilities With an Eye to the Future

The Army Upgrades its Air Defense Capabilities With an Eye to the Future Share This: Asian Military Review In an effort to update and upgrade its air defense systems, the U.S. Army delivered the first four operational Stryker anti-aircraft vehicles. The 5th Battalion, 4th Air Defense Artillery Regiment (5-4 ADA), under the 10th Army Air and Missile Defense Command, is the first battalion in the Army to test, receive, and field the Mobile Short Range Air Defense (M-SHORAD) system. The 5-4 ADA is based at Shipton Kaserne in Ansbach, Germany. The M-SHORAD is placed on the lightly armored 8×8 Stryker vehicles. These variants are fitted with an autocannon and a missile launcher capable of firing Hellfire or Stinger anti-aircraft missiles. They will replace the 1980s-vintage Avengers, a variant of the 4×4 Humvee that can only fire Stingers. The Avenger was less mobile and much more vulnerable.
