In today's force projection Army, planning and executing major operations to support a theater campaign are formidable tasks. Conditions are increasingly uncertain in a theater strategic environment with ambiguous and ever-widening threats. To assist the unified/combatant CINC in meeting these diverse threats, Army forces offer commanders a range of choices and options for designing theater strategy and campaigns.

Success means decisive victory or achieving the desired political end state, whether in war or military operations other than war (MOOTW).
