DoD Lists Key Needed Capabilities
From the post:
The Pentagon has released a list of 30 war-fighting capabilities it says it needs to fight anywhere on the globe in the future.
The 75-page document — officially called the Joint Operational Access Concept (JOAC) — lays out how the services must work together to defeat anti-access threats. It also will help shape development of future weapons and equipment.
“It’s a way to look at whether we’re correctly developing joint capabilities, not just service capabilities, to be able to get to where we need,” Lt. Gen. George Flynn, director of joint force development on the Joint Staff, said of the document during a Jan. 20 briefing at the Pentagon.
The document goes a step beyond the traditional fighting spaces — air, land and sea — to include space and cyberspace.
Interesting document that should give you the opportunity to learn something about the military view of the world and find potential areas for discussion of semantic integration.
