In tactical operations, the proportion of effort between offensive and defensive tactical activities will shift according to their nature. The enabling activities will link those and stability activities will either be conducted in support of the main effort or will be a less prominent line within the operation.
Defensive activities are executed to resist enemy offensive activities and to deny the enemy’s own objectives. This focus on the enemy’s intended objectives is the basis for defence planning. Usually, defensive activities are undertaken when the enemy forces have the initiative, to deter or prevent them from seizing terrain, attacking friendly capabilities or breaking through a defended area. They aim to defeat the enemy offensive actions, destroy its forces and prevent them from accomplishing his purposes.
