    Default Draft FM 5-0?

    Just wondering if anyone has heard or seen anything on a new rewrite of FM-5.0? A buddy of mine in theater was asking and I know I haven't seen anything yet.

    I have an issue paper on this dated late 2007. I think it was supposed to follow the new 3-0, which has been out for a few months now. Someone else might be able to speak to where the process is now (I have no idea), but I'll forward you what I have. I'm bouncing all over the place right now, so ping me via PM with your AKO address if you haven't heard from me in a couple of days.

    There are some interesting changes. Not sure how big of a deal they are yet.

    I've got the draft verison of the new 5.0 if anyone is interested. Contact me and I can shoot it out to you.

    It's still in the bowels of CAC/CADD. I think the target is the end of the year. They are incorporating "Design" into it, and then it has to go through the sausage machine of comments/revisions.

    Yes, it has to go through at least one more round of comments. However, it may get hung up due to design. The nature of design and because so many people see it differently (which I think is a good thing, but it makes writing design doctrine difficult) may take some time. I would not be surprised to see a counsel of colonels at some point. If you need more detail on the timeline, I can ask the author.
