Taylor Jenkins, a combat engineer with the Littoral Engineer Reconnaissance Team, 9th Engineer Support Battalion, 3d Marine Logistics Group, utilizes the Android Tactical Assault System to input reconnaissance findings into an after action report during a littoral mobility and detection exercise on Camp Pendleton, California, Nov. 18, 2021. The ATAK is a tool that allows Marines to rapidly report critical geospatial information to support intelligence requirements for a given objective. During this exercise, 7th and 9th ESB are refining their skills with emerging Marine Corps technologies in order to facilitate follow-on forces’ littoral mobility from shallow water to the objective.

As dusk descends, Marines and civilians from Program Executive Officer Land System’s Ground Based Air Defense program assemble around the PEO’s cutting-edge Medium Range Intercept Capability system. Serving as the Corps’ first medium range missile capability since the HAWK system, this state-of-the-art capability is a key example of successful acquisition under FD 2030.

Shifting Gears: How the Marine Corps is Reinventing its Tactical Vehicle Fleet - Serving as the backbone of the Corps' tactical vehicle fleet for two decades, the MTVR (Medium Tactical Vehicle Replacement) is the Marine Corps' primary heavy tactical vehicle used for transporting troops, supplies, and equipment in a variety of terrain and environmental conditions. Designed to increase the warfighter’s lethality on the battlefield, the MTVR has proven to be a highly reliable, versatile, and durable vehicle that can operate in extreme conditions and has been used in a wide range of missions, including logistics support, disaster relief, and combat operations.

The Corps’ Newest SATCOM Terminal Adds Lethality Through Speed - A satellite communications operator with 9th Communication Battalion, I Marine Expeditionary Force Information Group sets up the Marine Corps Wideband Satellite Communications – Expeditionary, or MCWS-X, aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, Calif. Designed to be transported by a single Marine – and set up by that same Marine in less than 15 minutes – the innovative new system allows Marines on the ground to quickly and securely connect to various SATCOM frequencies while providing high throughput rate.
