Reconceptualizing the Marine Air Command and Control System

Abstract

The future security environment and the Marine Corps' shift in mission focus to competition against a peer adversary create significant challenges for the Marine air command and control system (MACCS). To remain relevant in the future security environment, the Marine Corps needs to develop a new MACCS concept of operations consistent with naval expeditionary operations. The Navy and Marine Corps need to develop new aviation operations and aviation command and control doctrine to define how naval expeditionary force aviation will support CFMCC operations. The MACCS should be capable of distributed operations by employing task-organized nodes and teams. Lastly, it can be more survivable with disciplined signature management and diverse sensor employment.
