  COMMAND POSTS
  2-179. The OPFOR plans to exercise strategic, operational, and tactical con-
  trol over its wartime forces from an integrated system of CPs. It has designed
  this system to ensure uninterrupted control of forces.
  2-180. CPs are typically formed in three parts: a control group, a support
  group, and a communications group. The control group includes members of
  the command group and staff. The support group consists of the transport
  and logistics units. Whenever possible, the communications group, is remoted
  from the control and support groups, because of its large number of signal vans,
  generators, and other special vehicles that would provide a unique signature.
  2-181. Because the OPFOR expects its C2 to come under heavy attack in war-
  time, its military planners have created a CP structure that emphasizes sur-
  vivability through dispersal, stringent security measures, redundancy, and
  mobility. They have constructed a CP system that can sustain damage with
  minimum disruption to the actual C2 process. In the event of disruption, they
  can quickly reestablish control. This extensive system of CPs extends from
  the hardened command facilities of the NCA to the specially designed com-
  mand vehicles from which OPFOR tactical commanders control their units.
  Most operational-level CPs have been designed to be very mobile and smaller
  than comparable enemy CPs. The number, size, and types of CPs depend on
  the level of command.
  COMMAND POST TYPES
  2-182. OPFOR ground forces use five basic and three special types of CPs.
  Not all levels of command use all types at all times. (See Figure 2-17, where
  parentheses indicate that a type of CP may or may not be employed at a cer-
  tain level.) The redundancy provided by multiple CPs helps to ensure that
  the C2 process remains survivable.
