Maritime Tactical Command & Control (MTC2)

Abstract

Maritime Tactical Command and Control (MTC2) is a software program which will provide tactical Command and Control (C2) capabilities and Maritime unique Operational Level of War capabilities not supported by the joint C2 effort. MTC2 will align with the Navy Tactical Cloud (NTC) when available, and leverage Consolidated Afloat Network Enterprise Service (CANES), Agile Core Services (ACS), and legacy Integrated Shipboard Network System (ISNS). MTC2 will field to all echelons of command (afloat and ashore) within the Navy. The goal is to provide a suite of maritime applications that enable enhanced situational awareness, planning, execution, monitoring, and assessment in support of operational and tactical level of war requirements. MTC2 will field maritime applications designed to provide automated and structured support for tactical and operational planning, decision-making, and execution. In FY16 MTC2 will test its software and will also begin development of the first production release of software (Release 1). Global Force Management - Data Initiative (GFM-DI) is the Department-wide enterprise solution that enables visibility/accessibility/sharing of data applicable to the entire DoD force structure. MTC2 will be the program that fulfills a portion of the Navy's GFM-DI requirements. In FY16 MTC2 will conduct integration and testing of designated GFM-DI capabilities set for transition into MTC2 Release 1 software baseline.
