 Expeditionary Advanced Base Operations is a concept in which we disperse scalable forces on short notice across a distributed maritime environment, allowing Marines to operate as a stand-in force within the first island chain. We will seize, defend, and operate from key maritime terrain with a low signature and establish long-range precision fire capabilities. We will persist within the ranges of our adversary's weapon systems while expanding shared battlefield awareness and joint ally partners through a network of sensors and command and control systems. Leveraging this network of sensors and capabilities, we will sense and strike targets at sea in support of naval operations. We will sustain these distributed positions and displaces necessitated by the tactical situation. EABO takes a team of allies and joint partners to be successful.
