  5-18. See appendix E for example joint targeting working group and joint targeting coordination board
  formats.
  FIRES CELL OR JOINT FIRES ELEMENT
  5-19. The primary action agency for targeting at the theater is the fires cell. The fires cell leads targeting
  activities in conjunction with the intelligence targeting officer which include target development, capabilities
  analysis, coordinating, integrating, and synchronizing lethal and nonlethal capabilities. The fires cell serves
  as the staff conduit between planning and execution.
  THEATER FIRES COMMAND OR THEATER FIRES ELEMENT
  5-20. An Army theater fires command, or a theater fires element provides C2 of assigned strategic fires
  capabilities, serves as the senior HQ assigned to an Army Service component command/theater Army to
  integrate theater fires assets, and executes critical FS functions across the competition continuum. The
  organizational difference is minimal. The two different organizational structures represent requirements in
  different regions and may continue to evolve.
  5-21. The theater fires command and theater fires element are designed to develop, nominate, and converge
  effects on joint targets across the theater. This support to joint targeting will enable continuous efforts to set
  the theater for the joint force land component command, field army, and corps operations during competition
  below armed conflict and crisis. The theater fires command ensures the Army's contribution to the joint
  targeting process is effectively planned and executed during shape and prevent and can seamlessly transition
  to large-scale ground combat operations in accordance with the ground force commander's priorities.
  MULTIDOMAIN TASK FORCE
  5-22. The MDTF is forward postured to synchronize and employ multidomain capabilities (lethal and
  nonlethal) to achieve the supported commander's strategic objectives by conducting operational preparation
  of the environment (referred to as OPE) and joint intelligence preparation of the operational environment
  during competition and by conducting integrated strikes across domains to shape, penetrate, and dis-integrate
  enemy anti-access and area denial defenses in order to enable joint force freedom of action during conflict.
  5-23. The MDTF leverages theater fires command/theater fires element, combatant command, and other
  intelligence community members for guidance, authorities, and target development (to include TSA, entity
  target development, and target list management) based off organizational role, and provides liaison officers
  to supported commands to synchronize employment and targeting.
