Exploring a Net Centric Architecture Using the Net Warrior Airborne Early Warning and Control Node

Abstract

Network Centric Warfare experimentation is required in order to transform the Australian Defense Force into a net centric force. One area of experimentation is net centric software architectures, particularly component-based systems and middleware. The Airborne Early Warning & Control Mission System Testbed (AEW&C MST) enables such experimentation to be conducted and is overviewed in this report. The AEW&C MST is also one node in the Net Warrior Initiative, which aims to conduct net centric experimentation with real systems, testbeds and simulators across DSTO. This report discusses Net Warrior and the role of the AEW&C MST as the AEW&C node.
