About

ATP 3-01.81 establishes how the Army prevents threat UAS from impacting Army operations. Threat UAS are a condition of the modern battlefield that must be accounted for by leaders and Soldiers at every echelon. Countering unmanned aircraft systems is not a stand-alone effort or the sole responsibility of any warfighting function or branch. C-UAS is part of local security and counter-reconnaissance missions that is the responsibility of every Soldier and unit. C-UAS is not just when unmanned aircraft vehicles are flying, but also takes place "left of launch" and is part of the predictive analysis that intelligence sections do as part of their threat analysis and is incorporated into the targeting process. Every echelon contributes to Soldier survivability by creating a layered defense.
