Army Training

NTC officials said they have been updating the outdated vehicles with modern technology to make them a more realistic foe.

The new strategy puts an emphasis on ensuring that units operating in the Arctic are at a high state of combat readiness.

Scheduled for release this spring, the updated version of FM 7-0 seeks to simplify leaders' approach to training.

The SAT-C focuses on everything from field-stripping small arms to tackling the service's new rifle qualification standards.

Officials want to implement the plan across the total Army for fiscal 2022.

The Army created six SFABS to serve as special advisory units to train and advise foreign partner armies.

The aggressive changes are intended to improve unit dynamics and prioritize investment in troops.

The COVID-19 outbreak forced Army leaders to pause all fitness testing in late March to prevent the spread of the virus.

Last year, Army leaders placed a greater emphasis on sending more brigade combat teams to decisive-action rotations at NTC.

The Army began creating this new approach to the beginning of BCT during the spring.
