Introduction
Aim
The aim of this document is to provide an explanation of the operation of a mining fleet. Nothing in this guide is to be construed as representing the official position or policies of any entity, formal or informal, of the University.
Scope
The concepts describe herein are intended to guide and inform operators, leaders, and service support staff in the operation of mining fleets from 'rock to market'.
Objectives
The objectives for this fleet doctrine are to
- provide conceptual guidance for the formation and operation of mining fleets at all levels,
- outline principles for the efficient and tactically sound operation of mining fleets, and
- elucidate procedures which contribute tot he success of mining fleet operations.

Fleet Staff
Fleet Boss: the fleet boss is the administrative commander of the mining operation. The FB's role is to provide for the planning, oversight, command and control, fleet composition, execution, and followup for a mining operation. The FB also, typically, manages the haulers in the fleet.
Fleet Commander: the fleet commander (FC) fills the highest booster position in the fleet structure. The FC is usually the person in the fleet with the highest leadership skills.
Wing Commanders: wing commanders fills the second highest booster position in the fleet structure. WCs are chosen to provide middle structure for the fleet when it is a) widely distributed across belts/systems or b) when command skills in the fleet require the formation of multiple squadrons.
Squadron Commanders: squadron commanders fill the basic leadership position in the fleet structure. SCs are chosen not only to provide the structure for fleet boosters but also for command and control of the squadron members.
Fleet Roles
Miner: the fleet member who digs rocks.
Hauler: the fleet member who hauls rocks.
Booster: the fleet member assigned in the fleet window to provide boosts (e.g., Mining Foreman, Mining Director, Industrial Command Ships, Warfare Link Specialist, etc.) to the fleet
Scout: the scout's role is two-fold: a) develop reconnaissance regarding the state of asteroid belts in the operations area and b) provide overwatch on a star gate for war targets or other potential hostile ships.
Security: the security squadron, if one is available, provides overwatch on the fleet in order to provide a quick reaction to hostile actions taken against the fleet or to provide cover for the fleet to scatter, for instance.
