In addition, as a bonus, there are reproductions of over 50 vital U.S. Army Field Manuals! Field manual (FM) 3-09.70 (6-70) is focused on Paladin-unique battalion, battery, platoon and section operations. It sets forth the doctrine pertaining to organization, equipment, command and control (C2), operations, and tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP) for Paladin units. It establishes the duties and responsibilities of key Paladin battery personnel for field operations. FM 3-09.70 is written for the Paladin battery and platoon, as well as for the battalion commander and staff … an overview of the M109A6 howitzer (Paladin) battalion mission, organization, and description of key system components. The Paladin battalion exhibits the agility, initiative, and flexibility to provide timely and accurate fires in support of maneuver forces. The organization of the battalion and the tactics employed reinforce the principles of war and the tenants of Army operations as set forth in FM 100-5, Operations. Compared to earlier M109 series howitzers, the Paladin howitzer operates over more widely dispersed areas, processes on board technical firing data, and demonstrates the ability to shoot and scoot without relying on aiming circles and wire lines. The Paladin battalion strikes throughout the depth of enemy formations to suppress, neutralize, and destroy ground forces, direct fire weapons, indirect fires systems, and air defense systems. The battalion is organized and equipped to perform any of the four standard tactical missions (direct support (DS), general support (GS), general support reinforcing (GSR), and reinforcing (R)) or any nonstandard missions. The Paladin battalion performs tasks under the Army universal task list (AUTL) for the tactical level of war as defined for field artillery battalions in FM 6-20-1. The six major task areas for the tactical level AUTL are: Deploy/conduct maneuver. Develop intelligence. Employ fires. Perform combat service support (CSS) and sustainment. Exercise C2. Protect the force. The Paladin battalion is organized with a headquarters and headquarters battery (HHB), three firing batteries each with six howitzer sections (3 X 6), and a service battery. The HHB and service battery provide command, control, administrative, and service support for organic and attached elements.
