Air Force Needs To Develop, Acquire And Operate Systems As A Unified Force Across All Domains (air, Land, Sea, Space, Cyber, And Electromagnetic Spectrum). The Department Of The Air Force Rapid Capabilities Office (dafrco) In Partnership With The Air Force Life Cycle Management Center Command, Control, Communication For Battle Management (aflcmc/c3)seeks To Develop A Cross-cutter Portfolio Of Complimentary/ Linked Projects And Programs To Support Joint All-domain Command & Control (jadc2) And The Advanced Battle Management System (abms). The Air Force Intends To Facilitate The Rapid Exploration And Maturation Of Innovativetechnologies. The Air Force Will Support Future Operations By Providing The Critical Surveillance, Tactical Edge Communications, Processing, Networking, And Battle Management Command And Control Capabilities To The Joint Warfighting Force. Abms Is Not Envisioned As A Single Program Of Record, But Rather An Open Architecture Family Of Systems That Enables Capabilities Via Multiple Integrated Platforms. Abms Will Realize The Vision Of Jadc2 To Enhance And Expand Capabilities By Enabling Any Sensor To Inform Any Shooter In Any Domain—land, Sea, Air, Space, And Cyberspace. In An Interview With Air Force Magazine In April 2019, General Goldfein Stated, “it Is A Significant Move For The Air Force To Shift From A Platform Solution On Command And Control And Battle Management To A Network Solution Going Forward, And Our Future In The Business Of Joint Warfighting Is To Ensure That We’re Taking Every Sensor And Every Shooter And Connecting Them Together To Overwhelm An Adversary”. Our Aim Is To Have Intelligence And Targeting Data Transformed Into Timely And Actionable Information Through Trusted Networks And Intelligent Algorithms That Enable Our People To Focus On Decisions.
