Global Command and Control System Software and Digital Technology Pilot Programs
Abstract
The Global Command and Control System-Joint (GCCS-J) is the Joint Command and Control (C2) system of record and an essential component for warfighting situational awareness. It provides an integrated near real-time picture of the battlespace to support joint and multinational operations on U.S. and coalition networks. GCCS-J displays air, maritime, ground, space, cyber tracks for decision making. It also provides applications for missile warning, intelligence, targeting, imagery, exploitation, and applications for modeling chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) hazard areas and effects. Key decision makers at the strategic national, strategic theater, and operational levels rely on GCSS-J. Ten combatant commands (CCMDS) and all Services use GCCS-J. GCCS-J supports Combined Joint All Domain Command and Control (CJADC2), which is the modernized approach to military decision making by promoting information sharing between Services. Through integrated and synchronized capability development, CJADC2 achieves agile and resilient C2 across the Services. CJADC2 capabilities provide the ability to connect distributed sensors, intelligence, information, data, and effects from all Services to decision makers at the speed of the mission. GCCS-J: • Provides a Common Operational Picture (COP) with ground, air, maritime, cyber, and space tracks of U.S., coalition, and enemy forces • Has many tactical decision aids and other applications for COP management and situational awareness • Is the system of record for Theater Missile Warning, which provides alerting and display for real time missile events • Displays launch points, missile locations, threat fans, and projected impact points • Provides intelligence support to C2 operators with national and tactical intelligence data from DIA's Modernized Integrated Database (MIDB), still and motion imagery, and other sources of intelligence • Models chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear hazard areas and effects 1000+ GCCS-J instances can be found around the world (air, land and sea), on 30+ US and Coalition networks, and in 13 active Foreign Military Sales (FMS) cases with an additional two pending. The following Joint Staff instructions apply: CJCSI 3265.01A (Governance), CJCSI 6731.01C (Security), and CJCSI 3151.31D (Reporting). Additionally, the GCCS-J supports the National Defense Strategy (NDS) priority of building a resilient Joint Force and defense ecosystem through providing integrated, real-time communication for mission decision making.
