This study examines the concept of fielding an Army aviation division as a viable options for deep attack execution in AirLand Battle Future. First the study synopsizes the key elements of AirLand Battle Future (ADB-F), then it determines the future role of Army aviation during the ADB-F transition. Next the study examines the points of view of six key theorists related to the massing and application of rotary wing aviation in the context of deep battle. Then history from the Korean War to the present is reviewed to trace the tactical and technological evolution of Army aviation in its wartime role. Throughout this historical period, Army aviation has grown in size, mass, and efficiency. This monograph finds that an Army aviation division is not only a viable third dimension transition to AirLand Battle Future, but it is the most logical and economical application of massed combat power at the disposal of the corps commander. As examined within, the formulation of the Army aviation division best prepares us for success in our Future First Battles. This study concludes that the organization of the Army aviation division is a viable part of the solution to fight AirLand Battle Future.
