Reorganização do Corpo de Fuzileiros Navais dos Estados Unidos

Na Base Aérea de Miramar (Califórnia), a 3ª Ala de Transporte Aéreo do Corpo de Fuzileiros Navais dos EUA (MCC) dissolveu o 101º Esquadrão de Treinamento de Ataque, que treinava pessoal de voo nos caças F/A-18.

Devido ao fato de a ILC planejar se reequipar completamente com caças F-35 até 2030, as tarefas de treinamento em novos tipos de aeronaves foram atribuídas ao 323º esquadrão de treinamento de ataque da 3ª ala aérea da ILC.

A Secret War, Strange New Wounds, and Silence From the Pentagon

Many U.S. troops who fired vast numbers of artillery rounds against the Islamic State developed mysterious, life-shattering mental and physical problems. But the military struggled to understand what was wrong.

5 divisões de fuzileiros navais.
Aonde será que esse povo pretende ir com toda essa gente...
Aliás, não possuem embarcações suficientes nem para as 5 brigadas atuais, que se dirá de divisões.
Mas alguma coisa tem aí.
Ninguém aumenta assim capacidades de projeção anfíbia à toa. Muito menos no caso russo, que nunca teve interesse em questões expedicionárias para seus fuzileiros navais. Sempre foram mais uma tropa de guarda do que que ponta de lança.
A ver.

Irei lhe responder aqui porque é o tópico mais apropriado. Como o @cabeça de martelo já disse, são formações para serem usados como unidades essencialmente focados nas operações terrestres. Não apenas isso, a prioridade deles agora é formar algumas dessas divisões no "papel" pra fornecer números para jogar na Ucrânia, pelo menos algumas dessas unidades convertidas serão empregados na Ucrânia. Há dois meses atrás, parece que essa transformação já se iniciou. O processo de transformação começando pela 155ª Bda da Frota do Pacífico(155-я отдельная гвардейская бригада морской пехоты) se tornando a 55ª Divisão de Infantaria Naval(55-я Дивизия Морской пехоты Тихоокеанского Флота).

As cinco frotas (também uma provável Flotilha do Mar de Azov) também passarão do controle dos Distritos Militares para o do Comando da Marinha VMF, mas provavelmente perderão as formações de Defesa Costeira(Береговые войска). Espera-se que o 14º Corpo da Frota do Norte se torne um CAA(os ucranianos afirmaram que os russos formaram a 104ª Brigada de Artilharia do 14º Corpo que provavelmente foi enviado para a área de Bakhmut ano passado como eu informei no tópico do SV), reformando as existentes brigadas motorizadas em divisões.

No futuro, se espera um destino semelhante acontecendo ao 11º Corpo da Frota do Báltico(11-й армейский корпус).

Também consideram que o 22º Corpo da Frota do Mar Negro(22-й армейский корпус) já foi incorporado ao novo 18º CAA do Distrito Militar do Sul, enquanto o 68º Corpo(68-й армейский корпус) em Sakhalin que sempre fez parte do SV ficando sob o comando do Distrito Militar Oriental.

Além disso, de acordo com fontes ucranianas, a divisão do Distrito Militar Ocidental nos Distritos Militares de Moscou e Leningrado estariam numa fase avançada. Portanto, o primeiro deveria incluir o 1º e o 20º Exército, enquanto o último, o 6º Exército e, neste momento, o Corpo das Frotas do Ártico e do Báltico. Consequentemente, o Comando da Frota do Norte deveria deixar de existir como um Distrito Militar separado. Shoigu informou sobre a formação de um novo Corpo na Carélia.

Entrevista al COMGEIM.

Se siguen manteniendo los despliegues de la Fuerza de Guerra Naval (FGNE) Especial en Irak, de la Fuerza de Protección (FUPRO) en el Índico y la Brigada de Infantería de Marina (BRIMAR) “Tercio de Armada” (TEAR) continúa proporcionando un Batallón Reforzado de Desembarco (BRD) en los despliegues DÉDALO, junto con el Grupo de proyección de la Flota. Además, y este asunto es muy relevante, estamos inmersos para el despliegue en Rumanía de un Subgrupo Táctico, con una fuerza efectiva de 250 Infantes de Marina. Para que todo esto suceda es necesario un esfuerzo continuo de toda la organización para asegurar el alistamiento, adiestramiento y preparación, y la certificación de las unidades de la FIM antes de su trasferencia a la cadena operativa.

En estos despliegues operativos participan la práctica totalidad de los medios, sistemas y equipos actuales de la FIM, y habrá momentos en los que tendremos desplegados cerca de 1.000 Infantes de Marina en el exterior, más del 25% de la Fuerza. Es un esfuerzo notable

La Infantería de Marina cuenta actualmente con unos 4000 efectivos a día de hoy.


En el caso de Infantería de Marina, ahora tenemos por delante un horizonte prometedor. Estamos integrando del orden de 400 infantes de marina en los dos ciclos de forma anual para ir supliendo las bajas y al mismo tiempo crecer para llegar a un horizonte en 2028 de 5.500 efectivos de tropa.

El objetivo para 2028 es contar con 5500 efectivos en el Cuerpo.

"Apenas" um aumento de 1500 Fuzileiros, coisa pouca.

A 3ª Divisão de Fuzileiros Navais da Marinha dos EUA recebeu o primeiro lote de novos veículos de combate anfíbios ACV. O equipamento foi entregue no dia 29 de junho no porto japonês de Naha, na ilha de Okinawa, para envio à base militar de Camp Schwab. Ao todo, 12 unidades de equipamentos serão entregues neste mês. Os ACVs servem para substituir os veículos de pouso AAV-7.

A chegada do equipamento ocorre num momento em que o Corpo de Fuzileiros Navais dos EUA está a reorganizar-se e a modernizar-se , com especial enfoque na preparação para um potencial conflito com a China na região Indo-Pacífico.

US Marine Corps completes first live-fire exercise with Israeli Iron Dome air defense system.
31 Oct, 2024

On October 30, 2024, the Israeli company Rafael announced that the U.S. Marine Corps had completed its first live-fire exercise with a prototype system integrated with its Tamir interceptor, part of the Iron Dome air defense system. This new system, a collaborative effort between Rafael and Raytheon as the prime contractor, integrates an American radar and command-and-control center with the Tamir interceptor and a mobile launcher, designed specifically for the Marine Corps.

The exercise demonstrated the Marines’ ability to operate the system independently and verified its capacity to counter a wide range of threats, including cruise missiles, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and various types of rocket artillery. This live-fire exercise followed a comprehensive training and testing program, part of the Marine Corps' Medium Range Intercept Capability (MRIC) development. This program evaluates a prototype air defense system aimed at enhancing the Marines’ medium-range interception capabilities.

During the exercise, the Marines operated the system to intercept targets successfully, confirming the mobile launcher’s ability to maintain continuous launch operations—a feature critical for sustained defense. The Tamir interceptor was specifically adapted to meet the Marine Corps' requirements through collaboration between Rafael and Raytheon, who also provided training support for Marine operators.

Moshe Patel, head of the Israel Ministry of Defense’s Israel Missile Defense Organization (IMDO), highlighted the Iron Dome's operational record, including its role in Israel's current 'Operation Iron Swords.' He emphasized the system’s adaptability in various defense settings and expressed support for further cooperation in air defense with the U.S. military. The IMDO, which leads Israel’s multi-layered air defense program, oversees the Iron Dome along with systems such as David’s Sling and the Arrow-2 and Arrow-3 interceptors.

According to Shlomo Toaff, Executive Vice President and Head of Rafael’s Air Defense Systems Division, the exercise marked an important point in Rafael’s collaborative efforts with the U.S. Marine Corps and Raytheon to provide tailored air defense solutions. Toaff acknowledged the joint progress made in developing an effective system for countering an extensive range of aerial threats and mentioned Rafael’s ongoing cooperation with the IMDO and other international partners to advance air defense capabilities.

This exercise is part of the U.S. Marine Corps’ broader air defense modernization effort, focusing on the Medium Range Intercept Capability (MRIC) program and the Marine Air Defense Integrated System (MADIS). In August 2023, the U.S. Marine Corps announced its decision to purchase three Iron Dome air defense batteries from Israel for around $200 million. This agreement includes 44 launchers, 1,840 Tamir interceptors, and additional support equipment as part of the Marine Corps' Medium-Range Intercept Capability (MRIC), developed to enhance protection against threats such as cruise missiles, drones, and rockets.

Raytheon, partnering with Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, will be involved in the manufacturing, with portions of the production taking place in the U.S. to support interoperability with American systems. Moreover, the MRIC's integration with U.S. command and control systems will allow the Marine Corps to deploy this capability, particularly for Indo-Pacific operations.

The MRIC initiative, which integrates elements of the Iron Dome system, will consist of three batteries using the Tamir interceptors. The Corps has allocated $111 million in its FY-25 budget for these batteries, which are scheduled for initial fielding by the end of FY-25. The MRIC system is set to incorporate the Ground/Air Task Oriented Radar and the Common Aviation Command and Control System, enhancing interoperability and situational awareness within the Marine Corps' air defense framework.

Additionally, the Marine Corps is expanding its MADIS counter-drone capabilities. Contracts worth up to $200 million each have been awarded to Invariant Corp. and Anduril to develop a counter-UAS system for low-altitude threats. MADIS is expected to achieve initial operational capability in early FY-25, with initial deployments planned for the 3rd Littoral Anti-Air Battalion of the 3rd Marine Littoral Regiment in Hawaii. The Marine Corps has increased its total air defense budget to $370 million for FY-25, up from $250 million in FY-24, to support the procurement of MADIS and additional air defense systems.

This successful live-fire exercise underscores the progress of the Marine Corps toward operationalizing its first MRIC battery and reflects a continued focus on air defense capabilities through partnerships with Israel and industry collaborators. These initiatives collectively aim to equip the Marine Corps with robust defense options to address evolving aerial threats.
