The Marine Martial Arts app is a comprehensive training manual developed by Calculated Industries Inc. It serves as a valuable resource for individual Marines, unit leaders, and close combat instructors, providing them with the necessary tactics, techniques, and procedures for close combat.

Close combat involves physical confrontation, encompassing both armed and unarmed fighting techniques. From enforced compliance to deadly force, this app covers a wide range of techniques that aim to produce both lethal and nonlethal results. Unarmed combat techniques include hand-to-hand combat and defense against hand-held weapons, while armed techniques encompass the use of rifles, bayonets, knives, batons, and any weapon of opportunity.

The app emphasizes the importance of several fundamental principles that hand-to-hand fighters must understand and apply to successfully defeat opponents. These principles include physical and mental balance, positioning, timing, distance, and momentum.

The chapters within the app cover a wide range of topics, including the fundamentals of close combat, lethal and nonlethal weapons, hand-held weapons, strikes, throws, chokes and holds, ground fighting, and nonlethal techniques. Additionally, the app offers 15 fitness-related calculators as a bonus.

For those interested in martial arts, hand-to-hand combat, and military training, the Marine Martial Arts app is an invaluable resource that should not be missed.
