Command and Control Element, (C2E), ILS Concept Plan

Abstract

The first motivation of this C2E ILS Concept Plan is to frame a debate that can place the planning for a C2E in-service infrastructure on a sound foundation. It proposes objectives, strategies, requirements, key performance factors, a system hierarchy/lexicon and imponderables that should be discussed across a broad-based, inter-disciplinary, inter-service community before committing to a formal ILS plan. C2E is the least autonomous of all the GPALS system elements. It interfaces with the other GPALS BMD elements, with non-BMD systems and equipments, and with certain facilities and equipments housed in common operational spaces. Embedded in such a multi- level environment, individual C2E ILS functions take on different meanings than with more autonomous systems. Functions such as training and maintenance can no longer be conducted without routinely engaging other elements and systems.
