  • Distributed Kill Chains: Drawing Insights for Mosaic Warfare from the Immune System and from the Navy
    Distributed Kill Chains NATIONAL DEFENSE RESEARCH INSTITUTE C O R P O R A T I O N NICHOLAS A. O’DONOUGHUE, SAMANTHA MCBIRNEY, n Mosaic warfare, individual warfighting platforms are assembled—like BRIAN PERSONS the ceramic tiles in mosaics—to make a larger picture or, in this case, a force package. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is developing this novel warfighting construct to acquire, field, and employ forces. To reveal the value of Mosaic warfare and uncover Distributed Kill Ipotential challenges in the transition to this system, the authors of this report present a pair of case studies: (1) an analysis of the human immune system’s response to pathogens and (2) an analysis of the U.S. Navy’s Naval Integrated Fire Control—Counter Air (NIFC-CA) project. Chains Noting that the human immune system has evolved over 500 million years to exhibit mosaiclike properties—meaning that these properties have Drawing Insights for Mosaic Warfare from the conferred some evolutionary advantage—the authors suggest that Mosaic Immune System and from the Navy warfare might have similar advantages, such as resilience and adaptability, over other approaches to defeating a threat. They then discuss lessons and best practices from the NIFC-CA project, which largely owes its success to its unique approach to development and fielding. For example, NIFC-CA used preexisting testing infrastructure; approached testing in a scientific manner, in which failure was viewed as a learning opportunity rather than a setback; and had a lengthy development timeline. From these lessons, the authors derive a cohesive set of policy recommendations for DARPA.

    MENU Policy Analysis / PolicyWatch 2490 The Escalating Northern Front in Yemen by Michael Knights, Alex Almeida Sep 24, 2015 Also available in Arabic ABOUT THE AUTHORS Michael Knights Michael Knights is the Boston-based Jill and Jay Bernstein Fellow of The Washington Institute, specializing in the military and security affairs of Iraq, Iran, and the Persian Gulf states. Alex Almeida Alex Almeida is the head security analyst at a leading risk advisory firm. Brief Analysis The GCC-backed ground campaign to liberate Sana is building momentum, but urgent points of focus for U.S. security cooperation are becoming evident as Houthi resistance stiffens. ince liberating the southern port city of Aden in July, forces loyal to Yemeni president Hadi Abdu Rabu S Mansour and their Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) allies have been engaged in a multipronged offensive to roll back Houthi control of the south. The United Arab Emirates mechanized brigade task force and Egyptian special forces backed by Emirati and Saudi AH-64 Apache helicopters are now battling to control Taizz, Yemen's third- largest city. Similar task forces have fanned out into Abyan, Bayda, and Ibb provinces, advancing within a hundred kilometers of the capital and liberating the Balhaf oil terminal. Houthi resistance has been stiffening in recent weeks, however. On August 25, a UAE-supported column ran into a Houthi ambush near Mukayras in Bayda province, losing at least seven UAE-supplied mine-resistant ambush- protected (MRAP) vehicles. The northward advance on Sana is now pausing as a second front develops from the east. EASTERN FRONT AGAINST SANA n August 7, an armored column entered Yemen's Marib province from Saudi Arabia at al-Wadiah border Ocrossing, composed of UAE ground troops and Saudi-trained Hadi loyalists.
