INTEGRATED BATTLE GROUPS (IBG)

May 15, 2020

Army chief Gen. Manoj Naravane announced that the Army’s new concept of agile Integrated Battle Groups (IBG) as part of the overall force transformation will be operationalised very soon.

About:

The IBGs are brigade sized agile self-sufficient combat formations which, can swiftly launch strikes against adversary. They will be able to mobilise within 12-48 hours based on the location.
Each IBG would be tailor made based on Threat, Terrain and Task and resources will be allotted based on the three Ts.
The Army has extensively “test bedded” the IBGs to fine-tune the concept.
