Mounted Battle Command On The Move
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mounted Battle Command On The Move (MBCOTM) is a program of the United States Army managed by the Program Executive Office for Command, Control, Communications Tactical office out of Ft. Monmouth. MBCOTM has the stated goal of "enabling the Tactical Commander to exercise effective Command and Control by moving to the Decisive Point on the battlefield with the same level of Situational Understanding heretofore available only within a fixed command post." This is accomplished by putting a command and control system such as an Army Battle Command System, CPOF, C2PC, and/or DTCS along with extensive communication gear in a Stryker, HMMWV, or Bradley and locating it in a forward-deployed location.
