  Figure 6-19. Notional organization of forces for an exploitation
  6-207. Decentralized execution is characteristic of the exploitation; however, the commander maintains
  enough control to prevent overextension of the command. Minimum control measures are used. Tactical air
  reconnaissance and Army aircraft maintain contact with enemy movements and advise the commander of
  enemy activities. Interdiction, close air support, Army aviation attacks, and deep artillery fires can attack
  moving enemy reserves,withdrawing enemy columns,enemy constrictions at choke points,and enemy forces
  that threaten the flanks of the exploiting force. The commander must consider the security of ground supply
  columns and an aerial resupply may be necessary. Exploiting forces take advantage of captured supplies
  whenever possible.
  6-208. Failure to exploit success aggressively gives the enemy time to reconstitute an effective defense or
  regain the initiative using a counterattack. BCT mounted elements may move rapidly to positions of
  advantage to block enemy forces. If available, Army aviation assets can move forces to blocking positions
  andUASscan maintain contact. (SeeFM 3-90-1 for additional information.)
