It focuses upon the division in combat but recognizes that many of the principles, procedures and techniques that are addressed also apply to echelons above division. The vital role and responsibilities of the commander are stressed, Management of C3 with a view toward Command Post organization and reducing and controlling information flow are discussed, and a preview of the future tactical communications system and the anticipated improvements in reliable and survivable communications are presented. The reality of C3 as a tactical force multiplier from a historical, present and future perspective is analyzed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Command and Control (C2) capability establishes one of the most important aspects which deeply effects the combat effectiveness of the military forces. Unless a flexible, responsive, timely and survivable C2 System is established, commanders will not be able to conduct the operations successfully. Taking these realities into account, the study analyzes the tactical level C2 system, its elements and their contribution to the overall system. The study also examines the deficiencies of the current system and includes recommendations for a better C2 system. (Author).

Download or read book The Unspoken Consequence of Command Control Communications Technology Enhanced Micromanagement by Risk Averse Commanders written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technological advancements in communications provide the operational commander with a significantly enhanced real-time understanding of the battlespace, enabling more robust employment of centralized control. However, along with its benefits, this command, control and communications (C3) network includes the dangerous consequence of eroding the autonomy of tactical command through enhanced micromanagement by risk-averse operational commanders. Selected historical examples demonstrate that advances in C3 technology have been a force multiplier that enables the implementation of broader strategies by drastically improving the operational commander's understanding and control of the battlespace and battleforce. However, as exemplified by operations in Kosovo, technological advancement when put in the hands of risk-averse operational commanders also can serve as an enabler of potentially damaging micromanagement. Ultimately, training, doctrine and incentives will enhance the effectiveness of C3 integration, but the personality and leadership traits of the operational commander will ultimately determine how effectively this technology is integrated into the operational art of warfare toward the achievement of military objectives. The forgiving battlefields of recent conflicts have afforded commanders the opportunity to experiment with the application and misapplication of C3 in a relatively low-risk environment. Failure to maximize the effective employment of C3 in future conflicts against more formidable, multi-dimensional adversaries, would likely prove detrimental to achieving U.S. objectives. (29 refs.).

Download or read book The World Wide Military Command and Control System evolution and effectiveness written by David Eric Pearson and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2000 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps the best single way to summarize it is to view the book as a bureaucratic or organizational history. What the author does is to take three distinct historical themes-organization, technology, and ideology and examine how each contributed to the development of WWMCCS and its ability (and frequent inability) to satisfy the demands of national leadership. Whereas earlier works were primarily descriptive, cataloguing the command and control assets then in place or under development, The book offers more analysis by focusing on the issue of how and why WWMCCS developed the way it did. While at first glance less provocative, this approach is potentially more useful for defense decision makers dealing with complex human and technological systems in the post-cold-war era. It also makes for a better story and, I trust, a more interesting read. By necessity, this work is selective. The elements of WWMCCS are so numerous, and the parameters of the system potentially so expansive, that a full treatment is impossible within the compass of a single volume. Indeed, a full treatment of even a single WWMCCS asset or subsystem-the Defense Satellite Communications System, Extremely Low Frequency Communications, the National Military Command System, to name but a few-could itself constitute a substantial work. In its broadest conceptualization, WWMCCS is the world, and my approach has been to deal with the head of the octopus rather than its myriad tentacles.

Download or read book Command Control and the Common Defense written by C. Kenneth Allard and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the challenges facing the writer is keeping up with developments in the information age. While Command, Control, and the Common Defense provides a historical perspective on a contemporary problem, it was written in the late l980s; since then, the end of the Cold War and the American experience in the Gulf War have provided some fundamentally new perspectives of their own. Re-written history has its own pitfalls; a better solution was to leave the original content intact and to add as an epilogue a chapter which originally appeared in a 1995 anthology on the Gulf War. Both works have, of course, been edited for consistency. Finally, there is reason to ponder in the light of more contemporary developments one of the major points in that original work: that the tight integration demanded by emerging command and control technologies often runs afoul of existing command structures and theories of warfare. As I completed the revisions to this edition while serving on special assignment with the NATO Implementation Force in Bosnia, there were daily reminders of the truth of that statement.

Book excerpt: Lethal and Non-Lethal Fires: Historical Case Studies of Converging Cross-Domain Fires in Large Scale Combat Operations, provides a collection of ten historical case studies from World War I through Desert Storm. The case studies detail the use of lethal and non-lethal fires conducted by US, British, Canadian, and Israeli forces against peer or near-peer threats. The case studies span the major wars of the twentieth-century and present the doctrine the various organizations used, together with the challenges the leaders encountered with the doctrine and the operational environment, as well as the leaders' actions and decisions during the conduct of operations. Most importantly, each chapter highlights the lessons learned from those large scale combat operations, how they were applied or ignored and how they remain relevant today and in the future.
