Abstract

At this year's conference, the Services and Combatant Commands will describe what capabilities will likely be needed for the Joint Force to be successful in the evolving global security environment, with a focus on the Asia-Pacific region. Additionally, OSD, the Services, and Agencies will present their priorities for focusing technology initiatives, while maintaining the balance between conventional and irregular warfare/counter-insurgency capabilities. Given the realities to also reduce lifecycle costs, Service and Agency Speakers will discuss which technologies must be matured in the near term and the future. They will also highlight areas of synergy across technology disciplines which can be mined to maintain operational effectiveness during reduced budget years.
