Concept of Operations for the Pilot Maritime Battle Center (MBC)

Abstract

As recently as thirty years ago, the pace of technology was sufficiently slow that DoD operational requirements could greatly influence the direction and pace of technological development. But the tables have turned and many new operational requirements are created largely because technology makes them feasible. As can be seen in figure 1, the technology of the battlefield will always trail that of the technologist. But, by casting off the old paradigm of cyclic insertions of technology and embracing a process of near-continuous insertions, the gap between the technology of the warfighter and that of the technologist begins to narrow.
