Fighting Vehicle Technology
Fighting Vehicle Technology 41496_DSTA 60-77#150Q.indd 1 5/6/10 12:44 AM ABSTRACT Armoured vehicle technology has evolved ever since the first tanks appeared in World War One. The traditional Armoured Fighting Vehicle (AFV) design focuses on lethality, survivability and mobility. However, with the growing reliance on communications and command (C2) systems, there is an increased need for the AFV design to be integrated with the vehicle electronics, or vetronics. Vetronics has become a key component of the AFV’s effectiveness on the battlefield. An overview of the technology advances in these areas will be explored. In addition, the impact on the human aspect as a result of these C2 considerations will be covered. Tan Chuan-Yean Mok Shao Hong Vince Yew 41496_DSTA 60-77#150Q.indd 2 5/6/10 12:44 AM Fighting Vehicle Technology 62 and more advanced sub-systems will raise the INTRODUCTION question of how the modern crew is able to process and use the information effectively. On the modern battlefield, armies are moving towards Network-Centric Warfare TECHNOLOGIES IN AN (NCW). Forces no longer fight as individual entities but as part of a larger system. Each AFV entity becomes a node in a network where information can be shared, and firepower can Firepower be called upon request. AFVs are usually equipped with weapon Key to this network fighting capability is the stations for self-protection and the communications and command (C2) system. engagement of targets.

Vandergriff A National Security Affairs aperP published on occasion by THE INSTITUTE OF LAND WARFARE ASSOCIATION OF THE UNITED STATES ARMY Arlington, Virginia Today’s Training and Education (Development) Revolution: The Future is Now! by Donald E. Vandergriff The Institute of Land Warfare ASSOCIATION OF THE UNITED STATES ARMY AN INSTITUTE OF LAND WARFARE PAPER The purpose of the Institute of Land Warfare is to extend the educational work of AUSA by sponsoring scholarly publications, to include books, monographs and essays on key defense issues, as well as workshops and symposia. A work selected for publication as a Land Warfare Paper represents research by the author which, in the opinion of ILW’s editorial board, will contribute to a better understanding of a particular defense or national security issue. Publication as an Institute of Land Warfare Paper does not indicate that the Association of the United States Army agrees with everything in the paper, but does suggest that the Association believes the paper will stimulate the thinking of AUSA members and others concerned about important defense issues. LAND WARFARE PAPER NO. 76, April 2010 Today’s Training and Education (Development) Revolution: The Future is Now! by Donald E. Vandergriff Donald E. Vandergriff served 24 years of active duty as an enlisted Marine and Army officer. He has authored 50 articles and four books.

I am very heartened to report that this edition drew a bumper crop of submissions, presenting the Editorial Board with a pleasant but difficult task in deciding on the final line-up of articles. DSTA Horizons brings together a selection of DSTA’s innovative solutions and applications in the various disciplines of defence science technology. The diverse range of topics in every edition is a reflection of the multi-faceted capabilities of our defence ecosystem. To be at the forefront of defence technology, the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) must continue in the pursuit of breakthroughs and innovation. -

UNITED STATES MILITARY ACADEMY 25 Years of Enlightening Research 2012 Program Review Photonics Research Center United States Military Academy West Point, NY 10996 THE PHOTONICS RESEARCH CENTER Biennial Program Review 2009 – 2012 Director’s Message In May 2012, the Photonics Research Center (PRC) reached its 25th anniversary of providing service to the United States Army, doing so from newly renovated office and laboratory spaces in the Military Academy’s Science Center, which were occupied in January 2012. Established in 1987 by a memorandum of understanding between the Superintendent of the Military Academy and the Vice Chief of Staff of the Army, the PRC has three mission essential tasks: educate future Army leaders, conduct basic and applied research, and support the Army and the Department of Defense in the areas of laser and photonics technologies. This report summarizes the research and education efforts of the PRC nominally from the last report in November 2009 to October 2012, though academic years 2011 and 2012 are its focus. This report is produced in partial fulfillment of a biennial program review conducted by the Army Research Office, the Center’s principal funding agency. The personnel situation within the PRC, like that within the Army at large, has been affected by our nation’s overseas operations in Afghanistan and Iraq. Several of our research faculty, both those assigned within the PRC and those assigned within Departments, have served combat deployments. West Point’s first and only Professor of Photonics, LTC John Hartke, is currently serving as the senior military advisor and team chief at the National Military Academy of Afghanistan. -

Disec Background Paper Topic A
DISEC Disarmament and International Security Committee: United Nations Disarmament and International Security Committee (DISEC) Topic A: The use of asymmetric warfare by terrorist groups in Northern Africa Written by: Salma González, Omar Tamez and Dayannara González I. Committee Background The United Nations Disarmament and International Security Committee (DISEC), which is also known as the First Committee, was created in 1945. It is one of six central committees related to the General Assembly of the United Nations (UN). It primarily focuses on seven main topics: “nuclear weapons, other weapons of mass destruction, outer space, conventional weapons, regional disarmament and security, other disarmament measures and international security, and the disarmament machinery” (Permanent Mission of Switzerland to the United Nations, 2017). The committee is based at the UN Headquarters in New York City. It meets every September to November, although special meetings can be organized at any time. The sessions are divided into three parts: general debate, thematic discussions, and action plan drafts. DISEC reports its agreements and findings to the Disarmament Commission (UNDC) and the Conference on Disarmament (CD) (First Committee, UN, 2019). Currently, the committee is focused on addressing the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), the use of chemical weapons in Syria, the arms race in outer space, and the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (NTI, 2018). II. Topic Information A) History of the Topic Asymmetric warfare (also known as asymmetric engagement) is a type of war where the military capabilities of belligerent (an individual, country, or group that acts in a hostile manner) powers are unequal. It often involves the weaker force using unconventional tactics to create a significant psychological impact on the larger combatant (Sudhir, CLAWS Journal, 2008).
