Joint Blue Force Situational Awareness (JBFSA)
Abstract
Primary objective is to improve overall Friendly Force Situational Awareness and to develop solutions that reduce the potential for friendly fire. The primary outputs and efficiencies to be realized are increased development and integration of common data formats and the modification of supporting software / architectures to: 1) Allow Position Location Information/Situational Awareness data to flow freely among U.S., NATO and coalition forces; 2) Increase capability and capacity for Data Dissemination through the establishment of net-centric integrated services; 3) Increase / improve Joint Air - Ground Situational Awareness sharing capacity / capability through technical solutions, Concept of Operations, Tactics, Techniques and Procedures delivery, along with the development, integration, testing, production, and deployment of airborne Friendly Force Tracking (FFT) capabilities; 4) Improve and increase force capability for Battlefield De-confliction / Fratricide Avoidance, by increasing interoperability of systems through FFT data exchange standardization; and 5) Increase integration and availability of FFT data between tactical and logistics support forces.
