US Army officials: Service needs ‘true data fabric’

The Army lays plans for a data fabric.

During operations at Hamid Karzai International Airport in Afghanistan, the division didn’t have access to the right data at the right time, Jock Padgett, the division’s chief technology officer, said. Because there were many disparate systems, the division couldn’t visualize where they were in time and space. It was also challenging for other military elements to see what capabilities were on aircraft to guide landing priority, Padgett added.

An additional challenge is troops likely will head into environments with limited access to data. One official equated this to infantry units having three day supplies of water, food and ammunition when going on missions.

“Once he enters that denied environment, how do we enable him to have that three-day supply forward with the data analytic tools for him to be self sufficient and continue the mission that he’s been given?” said Brig. Gen. Charles Masaracchia, commander of the Mission Command Center of Excellence. “We’re looking at how to match data analytics to leader decisions and then enable these tools with the right data.”

Air Force Secretary Warns of China’s Burgeoning Nuclear Arsenal, Reveals B-21 Detail

Kendall also criticized the Air Battle Management System, an Air Force component of the Pentagon’s connect-everything initiative called Joint Domain Command and Control.

“My early observation is that this program has not been adequately focused on achieving and fielding specific measurable improvements in operational outcomes,” he said during his speech. “To achieve effective change we must also keep our eye on the ball. For me that means focusing on the fielding of meaningful military capability into the hands of our operational users.”

How JADC2 is improving nuclear command and control

The Pentagon’s effort to better connect sensor to shooter and shuttle data is inextricably linked with the high-stakes communication systems of nuclear warfare, and rightly so, the head of U.S. Strategic Command told Congress this week.

Trouble with data and message formats, for instance, was one of the major takeaways from the event, Murray said. When leaders on the ground reached out to the Joint Staff to discuss the challenges with integrating the service’s common operating pictures, they sent a team to Yuma.

“So we’re hoping to see that in a future experiment, we can take whatever output the Joint Staff gives us with these new message formats, and then do the experiment again, and see if we can bridge the gap that we had,” Abadie said.

Folks have only been talking about this for 50yrs jeepers. Darpa recently was talking up a middleware solution.
