THEORETICAL CONSIDERATIONS CONCERNING THE SETTING OF THE CAPABILITY REQUIREMENTS SPECIFIC TO COMBAT ENGINEERS STRUCTURES SUPPORTING MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES FROM AN AIRFIELD

Summary/Abstract: Combat engineers structures are responsible for support missions in battlefields, which determines their involvement in the four specific domains: mobility, counter mobility, survivability and general support. Inevitably, all these missions lead to ensuring the viability of the roads for land vehicles and the runway for aircraft. Air Force combat engineers must ensure the maintenance of the necessary infrastructure for take-off, landing or even parking of aircraft by carrying out the asphalting missions. The Air Force combat engineers capabilities are highlighted by the multitude of missions carried out which are constantly being diversified. Based on the idea that the combat engineers intervention in an emergency situation regarding the infrastructure of a runway or a platform must be efficient, this paper aims to highlight this fact through a study of the equipment used and their characteristics.
