This training circular (TC) is one of a series that describes the Hybrid Threat Force Structure (HTFS) for training U.S. Army commanders, staffs, and units.

This manual is part of the 7-100 series, which describes the Hybrid Threat that exists for the purpose of training U.S. forces for potential combat operations. The Hybrid Threat reflects the characteristics of military and irregular forces that may be present in the operational environment (OE).  This manual differs from others in the 7-100 series in that it includes both Threat doctrine regarding organization (Threat force structure and task-organized fighting force structure) and training- related issues from a U.S. viewpoint.

Applications for this series of TCs include field training, training simulations, and classroom instruction throughout the Army.  All Army training venues should use a HTFS based on these TCs,.  Trainers should use appropriate parts of the Hybrid Threat TCs to fill information gaps in a manner consistent with what they do know about a specific threat or enemy.

This publication applies to the Active Army, the Army National Guard (ARNG) /Army National Guard of the United States (ARNGUS), and the United States Army Reserve (USAR) unless otherwise stated.
