AVIATION BRIGADE (CORPS)
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 a Division/Corps Attack Battalion (AH-1), Corps
Division/Corps Aviation Brigade. This TOE replaces 01386A100 as
the Div/Corps Attack Battalion. This Attack Battalion contains
the following TOE:
TOE TITLE

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 aerial firepower operations.
b. Performs aviation unit maintenance on assigned aircraft
to include avionics systems and performs unit-level maintenance

01389A100 93 93 0
b. Manpower Requirements Criteria (MARC) Deviations: MARC
allows a Company NBC NCO and driver for the commander in each
company. These positions will not be used in all units due to
their small size.
