UNCLASSIFIED EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The DoD C2 Implementation Plan delineates planning and execution responsibilities necessary to achieve the Department’s C2 capability objectives and key actions as codified in the DoD C2 Strategic Plan. It also provides guidance for synchronizing C2 implementation activities across the Defense enterprise. The DoD C2 Implementation Plan provides an approach for organizing C2 implementation activities and executing, monitoring, and adjusting those activities, as the Department’s needs and priorities change and new and more effective solutions are identified across the C2 Doctrine, Organization, Training, Materiel, Leadership and Education, Personnel, and Facilities (DOTMLPF) spectrum. In addition, the DoD C2 Implementation Plan prescribes management activities, processes, and coordinating mechanisms that will facilitate the integration of C2 implementation activities across the Department’s Planning, Programming, Budgeting, and Execution (PPBE) process; Defense Acquisition System (DAS); and Joint Capabilities Integration and Development System (JCIDS). C2 implementation activities are organized into five implementation themes that were derived from an analysis of the DoD C2 Strategic Plan’s objectives and key actions. These five implementation themes are: • Achieving Leader-Centric C2 • Implementing Net-Enabled C2 Capabilities • Implementing Interoperable C2 and Information Sharing among U.S. Forces and Multinational and Interagency Mission Partners • Implementing Selected C2 Capabilities – Implementing Interoperable C2 of Joint Fires, Combat Identification (CID), and Friendly Force Tracking (FFT) Capabilities – Implementing Adaptive Planning and Execution – Implementing National and Nuclear Command Capabilities (Senior Leader C2) ES-1 UNCLASSIFIED UNCLASSIFIED • Implementing C2 Portfolio Management. Specific implementation guidance consists of implementation activities for achieving the C2 objectives in the DoD C2 Strategic Plan. The execution of the implementation activities is phased across four timeframes where each implementation activity will have achieved its intended results by the end of 2010, 2012, 2014, or 2016. ES-2 UNCLASSIFIED UNCLASSIFIED 1. INTRODUCTION The DoD Command and Control Implementation Plan provides guidance and assigns responsibilities to achieve DoD command and control capability objectives directed by the DoD Command and Control Strategic Plan. This plan prescribes amplifying guidance and details an executable approach for the Department to effectively define, prioritize, acquire, govern, manage, and implement C2 capabilities consistent with the strategic direction contained in the DoD C2 Strategic Plan.1 DoD C2 implementation planning is accomplished by the unified effort of the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD), the military departments, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the combatant commands, the Office of the Inspector General of the Department of Defense, the defense agencies, the DoD field activities, and all other organizational entities in the Department of Defense (hereafter referred to collectively as the “DoD components”) under the DoD C2 governance and management structure.2 DoD C2 implementation planning is intended to meet the needs of senior leaders, commanders, and stakeholders across the range of DoD operations. 1.1 Purpose and Intended Use The DoD C2 Implementation Plan identifies implementation activities and associated execution responsibilities necessary to achieve the Department’s C2 capability objectives codified in the DoD C2 Strategic Plan. It provides the basis for DoD C2 governance and management assessments and recommendations to synchronize DoD component activities across the defense enterprise. The DoD C2 Implementation Plan will be used to guide, synchronize, integrate, and coordinate planning and implementation activities at all levels. In particular, DoD components will use the DoD C2 Implementation Plan to collaboratively plan and 1 The DoD C2 Strategic Plan, Version 1, dated December 18, 2008, coupled with the DoD C2 Implementation Plan satisfies the requirement of Department of Defense Directive (DoDD) O-5100.30, “DoD Command and Control,” January 5, 2006, to develop and maintain a DoD C2 roadmap. Further, the DoD C2 Strategic Plan and Implementation Plan together constitute the C2 Capability Portfolio Strategic Plan required by DoDD 7045.20, “Capability

INTRODUCTION Adams informs us that rapid changes due to technology have increasingly effected the affairs of the military. This effect whether economic, political, or otherwise has sometimes been extreme. Technology has also made substantial impacts on the prosecution of war. Adams also informs us that information technology is one of the primary change agents in the military of today and likely of the future [1].

  • Command and Control in Operations and Cyber Security
    COMMAND AND CONTROL IN OPERATIONS AND CYBER SECURITY Jiří Černý, Petr Hrůza Abstract: Command of armies is one of the areas where there occur frequent changes and which is the object of examination in all armies. The combat power of the armed forces does not depend only on equipping them with modern weapons and equipment, but it also depends on how their actions will be planned before the fight and how they are managed in combat. Every military operation conducted around the world is enabled by space as well as cyber operations, domains closely linked and threatened alike. Cyberspace is increasingly becoming a contested domain. Keywords: Command and Control, Communication, Cyber Security 1. Introduction Command and control is a multifaceted art and creative activity consisting of deliberate regulation of combat power to achieve its goals within the specified time and with minimum losses. Commander plays crucial and irreplaceable role. In the process of command, he decides how to use military force and imprints to subordinates his will and intentions. In the process of control, he and his staff, manage and coordinate activities of subordinates to meet the set task. To ensure reliable and effective command and control of combat forces, it is necessary to develop command and control system. It consists of three interlinked components: authorities, processes and means of command and control. Role of Command and Control System (Command and Control - C2) in command of troops is so crucial that no one questions it. Yet, it has to be clear that the system of command is an open system, in which constant changes take place.

  • Joint Targeting and Air Support in Counterinsurgency How to Move to Mission Command
    Feature Joint Targeting and Air Support in Counterinsurgency How to Move to Mission Command LTC Paul Darling, Alaska Army National Guard n December 2006, the US Army and US Marine Corps jointly pub­ lished Field Manual (FM) 3-24 / Marine Corps Warfighting Publica­ tion (MCWP) 3.33.5, Counterinsurgency, to much fanfare and inter­ I 1 est from both the civilian media and military circles. The colead writers of this manual, Gen David H. Petraeus, USA, retired, and Gen James N. Mattis, have both enjoyed professional success and favorable public notices for their efforts. In April 2009, FM 3-24.2, Tactics in Counterinsurgency, appeared, defining in more detail the application of the doctrine originally espoused in FM 3-24/MCWP 3-33.5.2 In October 2009, the Joint Staff followed with Joint Publication (JP) 3-24, Counter­ insurgency Operations, which reiterates many of the basic counter­ insurgency (COIN) principles found in the initial US Army/US Marine September–October 2012 Air & Space Power Journal | 49 Feature Darling Joint Targeting and Air Support in Counterinsurgency Corps document.3 It makes several subtle but important changes, how­ ever, while ignoring others made in FM 3-24/MCWP 3-33.5 as well as FM 3-24.2, thus actively undermining the entire joint effort within COIN operations. Apparently, JP 3-24 did this to reinforce service com­ ponent tenets that do not work in guerilla/low intensity conflicts, as verified by the historical record and research and as addressed by FM 3-24/MCWP 3-33.5 as well as FM 3-24.2.

Automation and the Future of Command and Control The End of Auftragstaktik? Lieutenant Colonel Rosario M. Simonetti, Italian Army Mari- ne, and Paolo Tripodi, PhD1 Abstract: The impact of new technologies and the increased speed in the future battlespace may overcentralize command and control functions at the political or strategic level and, as a result, bypass the advisory role played by a qualified staff. Political and/or strategic leaders might find it appealing to pursue pre- emptive or preventive wars as a strategy to acquire asymmetric advantage over the enemy. This article investigates the roots of this trend, connecting historical perspectives with implications that next-generation technology may have on command and control. Keywords: command and control, technological innovation, mission com- mand, automation he impact of new technologies and the increased tempo of the future battlespace may overcentralize command and control functions at the Tpolitical or strategic level. Political and strategic leaders might pursue preemptive or preventive wars as a strategy to acquire asymmetric advantage over the enemy, not because they must but because they can. As a result, senior leaders may be encouraged to bypass the advisory role played by their quali- fied staff and undermine the autonomy of lower level commanders.

The research question is: What good is cyber in war? What is the utility of military cyber operations in conflict situations and what obstacles exist? The paper analyzes a small set of cases where cyber capabilities have been used for military purposes. Using the ‘three levels of warfare’ heuristic, the study outlines the potentials and operational restrictions of military cyber operations. The analysis proposes a set of variables and hypotheses, such as the timing of use of cyber capabilities and the operational complexity of a cyber operation, for further theory building. Keywords: cyber in war, military cyber operations, levels of war, strategic cyber attacks, tactical cyber, small-n case study 1. INTRODUCTION North Korea’s leader, Kim Jong-un, allegedly heralded cyber capabilities as an “all- purpose sword” that guarantees “ruthless striking capability” (Young Kong, Gon Kim, and Lim 2019).

  • Command and Control
    Joint Doctrine Publication 5 Command and Control Issued by: Ministry of Defence of the Netherlands Lay-out: Graphics Service | Defence Audiovisual Service | The Hague Pictures: Defence Audiovisual Service Contact: Netherlands Defence StaD, Doctrine Branch, [email protected] Joint Doctrine Publication 5 Command and Control ! Joint Doctrine Publication 0 Foreword by the Chief of Defence Joint Doctrine Publication 5: Command and Control is the first publication to address a specific subject at joint level as a supplement to the Netherlands Defence Doctrine. So why a publication about ‘command and control’? There are several reasons for this. Command is the cement which binds the various building blocks of military operations. It gives form and direction to the various capacities and assets and determines how they will be arranged and employed. Without a robust command, even the best personnel and equipment cannot be employed effectively. It is essential to have a common starting point for the Netherlands armed forces when it comes to command and control. Operations are increasingly conducted in a joint or combined context, and although each of the different Services has its own culture, there must be no need for discussion about the method of command. The basis in this respect is mission command, for which this publication provides the required starting point. Despite the fact that high-grade technology can lead to vast improvements in quality, command is first and foremost carried out by people. Central in command at every level is , the commander, who has leadership qualities and military proficiency, who has manage- ment and diplomatic skills and who is also an ambassador for the Netherlands.
