Pentagon pursues information 'kill web' at massive speeds
Premise relies often upon an AI-empowered ability to gather, analyze, organize and share data

Information itself, when it comes to networking an attacking force to expedite sensor-to-shooter time and quicken the "kill web," is increasingly viewed as a defining weapon of war. This premise, which relies often upon an AI-empowered ability to gather, analyze, organize and share time-sensitive data, forms the conceptual backbone of the Pentagon’s emerging Joint All Domain Command and Control program (JADC2).
This program, and cutting-edge work to refine the ability to weaponize information and networking, is one of a few large focus areas for the Defense Department and major industry science, technology and weapons units such as Lockheed’s Skunk Works and Raytheon’s more recently emerging Advanced Concepts and Technology (ACT).
Tay Fitzgerald, acting vice president of ACT, Raytheon Intelligence & Space, told Warrior that the JADC2 program is receiving a lot of attention from her organization, which is deeply immersed in the testing and development of advanced algorithms for signal processing, micro-electronics, autonomy and secure data networking.
