Army and TRADOC planners saw Force XXI - the Army to emerge between 2000 and 2010 - as a distinct change from the current force.They saw it as a new departure, an Army with a flexible engagement strategy structured in 21st century technology, knowledge-based,and built on capability, not threat projections. Its lethality, survivability, and operational tempo all would markedly increase. Shared "situational awareness" by its leaders and soldiers and real-time battlefield information would transform its offensive and defensive power.
-- "Force XXI"
