  LARGE-SCALE COMBAT OPERATIONS
  2-67. The Army is manned, equipped, and trained to operate in all operational scenarios or categories,
  starting with the most lethal conditions first—large-scale combat against a peer threat. Large-scale combat
  operations are extensive joint combat operations in terms of scope and size of forces committed, conducted
  as a campaign aimed at achieving operational and strategic objectives (ADP 3-0). During ground combat,
  they typically involve operations by multiple corps and divisions and include substantial forces from the joint
  and multinational team. Large-scale combat operations often include both conventional and irregular forces
  on both sides. Chapter 4 discusses large-scale combat operations as part of armed conflict.
  2-68. The Army provides the joint force commander (JFC) significant and sustained landpower and
  intelligence capabilities. Landpower is the ability—by threat, force, or occupation—to gain, sustain, and
  exploit control over land, resources, and people (ADP 3-0). The Army supports the joint force by providing
  capabilities and capacity to apply sustained combined arms landpower. Those capabilities include maneuver,
  fires, special operations, intelligence, EW, cyberspace operations, space operations, sustainment, and area
  security. Army forces assist JFCs in gaining and maintaining the initiative, defeating enemy forces on the
  ground, controlling territory and populations, and consolidating gains to establish conditions for a political
  settlement favorable to U.S. interests.
  2-69. The JFC applies Army capabilities to neutralize sophisticated enemy forces and capabilities by
  systematically destroying key nodes and capabilities essential to the enemy’s ability to continue fighting
  and/or legitimizing its messaging. The joint force requires Army special operations forces and conventional
  Army units that are proficient in combined arms operations and capable of employing capabilities across
  multiple domains in complementary ways. By aggressively engaging the enemy, Army forces enable joint
  force freedom of action. Army intelligence capabilities are an integral part of joint ISR across all unified
  action partners. (See FM 6-05 for doctrine on special operations forces and conventional force integration.)
  COMBINED ARMS AND COMBAT POWER
  2-70. Combined arms is the synchronized and simultaneous application of arms to achieve an effect greater
  than if each element was used separately or sequentially (ADP 3-0). Leaders combine arms in complementary
  and reinforcing ways to protect capabilities and amplify their effects. Confronted with a constantly changing
  situation, leaders create new combinations of capabilities, methods, and effects to pose new dilemmas for
