In Pursuit of 21st Century Distributed Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance Operations

Viac o knihe

The book explores the disconnect between the Air Force's distributed ISR architecture, specifically the roles of Predator and Global Hawk RPAs alongside DCGS intelligence centers. It highlights the lack of integration among crew members, who do not collaborate effectively or share mission insights. The absence of a cohesive framework, including operational doctrine, training, and coordination mechanisms, hampers mission effectiveness. The author advocates for an AF-level Program Action Directive to enhance collaboration and optimize the employment of distributed ISR assets.
