NATO ATP-49(F) VOL I
USE OF HELICOPTERS IN LAND OPERATIONS - DOCTRINE
Organization:
NATO - North Atlantic Treaty Organization
Year: 2012
Abstract: The scope of ATP-49(F) is limited to the following.
a. This ATP is principally concerned with helicopter tactical operations in support of land forces on operations.
b. This ATP is intended for use by ground and aviation (helicopter) forces from unit to formation level.
c. Helicopter operations as part of amphibious warfare are covered in ATP-8.
d. The special aspects of air assault operations are outlined in PART 3 Chapter 3.
e. Promulgation of this ATP does not negate the need for unit commanders in the field to co-ordinate international helicopter operations but provides a common basis for this co-ordination, which has been sanctioned by National Authorities.
Helicopter Categories and Roles. Helicopters are usually categorised with respect to their designed primary purpose. These categories vary from one nation to another to take account of the roles that their helicopters are expected to undertake and the degree to which specialisation is desirable and can be afforded. For a highly specialised helicopter the role and category may be the same (for example the attack helicopter). However, the versatility of helicopters is such that many types are capable of performing several roles. (In this tactical publication the role of the helicopter is of more relevance than the category. Roles are discussed in PART 1 Chapter 2).
Terms and Definitions. Attention is drawn to the terms and definitions contained in the Lexicon. These include terms and definitions from the NATO Glossary (AAP-6) and others specific to this ATP. Particular attention is drawn to the term ‘enemy' which appears widely in both volumes of the ATP. ‘Enemy' is used to describe forces and/or weapon systems that pose a threat to the security of NATO forces or operations. It is not used to identify those forces that are considered a threat as national enemies of NATO or any member nation involved in NATO operations.
Aim. The aim of this publication is to improve inter-operability among NATO helicopter forces engaged in land operations by establishing common principles and procedures for battlefield helicopter operations. The basic focus is on Article 5 operations. The publication has been structured into four PARTS for ease of reference. PART 1 concerns the Principles and Characteristics of helicopter employment and roles. PART 2 provides a guide to Command, Control and Communications. PART 3 focuses on Operations and PART 4 describes Helicopter Tactics, Techniques, Procedures and Training.
