DTOE 01045A000
ASSAULT BATTALION (UH-60)
AVIATION BRIGADE
AIRBORNE DIVISION
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
1. PURPOSE. The attached A-edition tables of organization and
equipment (TOE) are the result of implementation of guidance from
the Headquarters, Department of the Army (HQDA) approval of the
Aviation Restructure Initiative (ARI). The ARI reorganizes all
U.S. Army aviation units. The goals are to reduce the number of
older aircraft from the fleet and document unconstrained manpower
requirements in all organizations. These DTOE document the
organizational structure, along with manpower and equipment
requirements, for an Assault Battalion (UH-60), Airborne Division.
This Assault Battalion contains the following TOE:
TOE TITLE
--- -----
01045A000 Assault Battalion (UH-60)
01046A000 Headquarters & Headquarters Company
01207A200 x 2 Assault Company (UH-60)
01108A000 Command Aviation Company
01049A000 Aviation Unit Maintenance (AVUM) Company
These TOE reflect approved doctrine and the latest information
concerning changes in operational concepts, operational
requirements documents (ORD), and related basis-of-issue plans
(BOIP).
2. MISSION/CAPABILITIES/SECTION I.
a. Performs air assault and air movement operations.
b. Provides command and control aircraft support assets for the
Airborne Division.
c. Provides combat electronic warfare intelligence (CEWI)
assets for the Airborne Division.
d. Performs aviation unit maintenance on assigned aircraft
to include avionics systems and performs unit-level maintenance
on organic equipment.
e. See the appropriate TOE Section I for a complete list of
capabilities and limitations of these units.
3. ASSIGNMENT. Organic to the Aviation Brigade, TOE 01040A,
Airborne Division.
4. PERSONNEL.
a. Personnel strength for this organization is as follows:
TOE DESIGN DOCUMENTED DIFFERENCE
01046A000 89 89 0
01207A200 (2 x 64) 128 128 0
01108A000 53 53 0
01049A000 89 89 0
b. Manpower Requirements Criteria (MARC) Deviations:
(1) MARC authorizes a Company NBC NCO and driver for the
commander in each company. These positions will not be used in the
flight companies due to their small size.
TOE PARA MOS NUMBER RATIONALE
01046A000 01 54B1P +1 Position consolidated in the
HHC to support the 3 flight
companies.
01108A000 01 67T1P -1 Position deemed non-mission
essential due to small size
of company.
01108A000 01 54B1P -1 Position deemed non-mission

01049A000 01 67T3P -11 UH-60 Technical inspectors
requirements documented at
50% MARC to bring them in
line with requirements for
other aircraft.
(2) Full MARC allowances for UH-60 Technical Inspectors is
considered excessive in comparison to all other aircraft and only 50%
of the requirement is documented.
c. Detailed rationale for doctrinal personnel requirements
is in the accompanying TOE Analysis--Narrative Discussion.
d. The risk resulting from decrements is negligible.
5. EQUIPMENT.
a. Equipment reflected in these TOE represent minimum
essential wartime requirements with normal modernization from the
base to the objective TOE.
b. Major items of equipment in the TOE are:

6. COST.
a. Cost Analysis Summary for the OTOE is provided in
paragraph 7 below.
b. Force structure information for each TOE is based on
current M-Force and E-Date 961001.
c. HQDA approved commodity consumption rates were used in
the development of these TOEs and are reflected in the Cost
Analysis Summaries.
7. COST ANALYSIS SUMMARIES. The cost analysis of 01045A000 is
at enclosure 1. Cost and personnel differences between the old
and new TOEs are due to increasing personnel strengths to
unconstrained MARC levels.
