Support IBCS, Best Missile Defense C2 We’ve Got: Former MDA Tester
By Francis Mahon on June 12, 2017 at 4:01 AM
A simplified (yes, really) overview of IBCS command-and-control network
America’s military has operated far too long without a truly integrated air and missile defense system and the Army’s Integrated Air and Missile Defense Battle Command System (IBCS) is the best answer we’ve got. Congress needs to support the Army’s budget request for IBCS and AMD funding. For its part, the Army needs to re-evaluate its management approach.
IBCS will take us from stove-piped, stand-alone weapon systems to the integrated air and missile defense we require. IBCS’ open architecture and “any sensor-best shooter” construct is the objective our commanders must have to deal with the threats of today and tomorrow.
