Joint Interoperability

Abstract

The Director, Joint Interoperability provides oversight and guidance to initiatives and programs that support the joint tactical warfighter to enable reduced fratricide, increased force effectiveness, and decreased taxpayer cost through fully interoperable weapons systems, down to the tactical level of engagement. Joint interoperability is a force multiplier that will enable our warfighters to fight jointly, be more efficient and effective in the battle space, allow warfighters to fight the battle and not the tactical C2 displays, and reduce fratricide. Sharing of systems and information across Services, and with coalition and non-DoD partners, has the benefit of a more rapid and better coordinated response to an ever more agile adversary. It also enables the full exploitation of our costly (legacy and future) weapon systems at full kinematic range and makes full use of the assets in theater. The taxpayers also benefit from reducing the cost of weapon system procurement by paying once vs. many times for weapons systems that are used by multiple Services in the battlespace.
