COMMAND, CONTROL, COMMUNICATIONS, COMPUTERS (C4)
Abstract
This activity encompasses all MCWL C4 related experimentation efforts including assessment of equipment, new TTPs, training programs, and proposed organizational changes associated with enhanced C4 capabilities. Although this category covers several small (less than $500K per FY) efforts being pursued by MCWL, most programs listed below are considered major (valued at $500K or more) or have near real-time operational impact. The increase in MCWL C4 activity funding from FY 2011 to FY 2012 is due to the assessment of enhanced Marine Air-Ground Task Force (MAGTF) communications concept demonstrators and the initiation of the development of the Internally Transportable Vehicle (ITV) based C4 concept demonstrator. The investigation and assessment of a MAGTF Command and Control (C2) architecture and an integrated C2 application in support of the Enhanced MAGTF Operations (EMO) concept also initiate in FY 2012. The decrease in MCWL C4 activity funding from FY 2012 to FY 2013 is due to cost savings encountered by being able to adapt many Enhanced Combat Operations (ECO) technologies to different/larger EMO venues being purused by MCWL in the C4 arena.
