What approach does the GCE take when engaging in urban warfare?

The Ground Combat Element (GCE) takes a comprehensive approach to urban warfare, recognizing the unique complexities and challenges presented by urban environments. This includes considering building entry tactics and gathering intelligence which are crucial for successful operations in densely populated areas.

In urban settings, combat operations often involve close-quarters engagements, and the ability to navigate buildings safely and effectively can significantly impact mission success. Intelligence plays a critical role in urban warfare, as it helps identify enemy positions, civilian presence, and potential traps, enabling forces to plan their approach strategically and minimize risks to both personnel and civilians.

This holistic strategy enhances situational awareness and operational effectiveness, ensuring that GCE units can adapt to the specific requirements of urban engagements. By focusing on both tactical techniques for entering and clearing buildings as well as intelligence gathering, the GCE is well-prepared for the complexities of urban combat scenarios.
