Joint Expeditionary Force Experiments
Abstract
The Joint Expeditionary Force Experiments (JEFX) and supporting Limited Objective Experiments (LOEs) are warfighter integration and validation experiments that address operational challenges and are part of the Air Force (AF) command and control (C2) integration and experimentation enterprise. Activities include: evaluation of innovative solutions for C2 aspects of the AF integrated air and missile defense (IAMD) mission, Anti-Access/Area Denial (A2/AD) threats, dynamic aerial layer networking, 5th to 4th generation aircraft and 5th to 5th generation aircraft disparate tactical datalink (TDL) data translation capabilities Non-Traditional ISR (NTISR), Airspace Integration, Unit Level Agile Combat Support communication processes, as well as C2 Integration and Modernization for existing AF programs of record. JEFX provides continued integration and experimentation efforts across the AF C2 seams and programs in air, space and cyber domains as defined by CORONA, HQ AF, and the AF Command and Control Integration Center (AFC2IC). JEFX/LOE activities explore significant capability gaps across the range of Air Force command and control (C2) by means of assessing Concept of Operations (CONOPS), tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs) and materiel solutions. The activities address critical lessons learned from recent operations and the validated requirements described in the 2012 Air Force, Joint and Defense Strategies and Operational Concepts, the AF Core Function Master Plans (CFMP) and supported through MAJCOM Core Function Lead Integrator (CFLI). JEFX creates or leverages operationally representative-experiment enterprise warfighter environments to address joint and coalition warfighter gaps and shortfalls that demonstrate existing and emerging Air Force capabilities to deploy and employ decisive air, space and cyberspace power for the joint force commander and enable innovation and transformation. These unique missions are the major reason JEFX is an experiment and not simply a demonstration or exercise. Activities also include studies and analyses to support current program planning and execution, as well as future program planning. This program is in Budget Activity 7, Operational System Development, these budget activities include development efforts to upgrade systems currently fielded or has approval for full rate production and anticipate production funding in the current or subsequent fiscal year.
