Global Command
Abstract
The Global Command and Control System-Joint (GCCS-J) is the Joint Command and Control (C2) system of record and an essential component for warfighting situational awareness. It provides an integrated near real-time picture of the battlespace to support joint and multinational operations on U.S. and coalition networks. GCCS-J displays air, maritime, ground, space, cyber tracks for decision making. It also provides applications for missile warning, intelligence, targeting, imagery exploitation, and applications for modeling chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear (CBRN) hazard areas and effects. Key decision makers at the strategic national, strategic theater, and operational levels rely on GCCS-J. Additionally, ten combatant commands (CCMDs) at sites around the world, supporting joint and coalition operations use GCCS-J. GCCS-J supports the Combined Joint All Domain Command and Control (CJADC2), which is an approach to military decision making that promotes information sharing between all Services. CJADC2 enabling capabilities provide the ability to connect distributed sensors, intelligence, information, data, and effects from all Services to decision makers at the speed of the mission. Key capabilities provided by GCCS-J to support the Joint C2 Mission include: • Addressing the Joint Staff (JS) annual "Top 10" list of capability requirements, which are the high priority items identified by the Joint Staff • Provides Common Operational Picture of ground, air, maritime, cyber, and space tracks of US, coalition, and enemy forces across each operational and Combatant Command, as well as a Global COP for top tier decision makers • Makes available multiple tactical decision aids and other applications for COP management and situational awareness • Is the system of record for Theater Missile Warning, which provides alerting and display for real time missile events • Displays launch points, missile locations, threat fans, and projected impact points • Provides intelligence support to C2 operators with national and tactical intelligence data from DIA's Modernized Integrated Database (MIDB), still and motion imagery, and other resources of intelligence • Models chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear hazard areas and effects
