  6. Multinational Maritime Exercises RIMPAC • Biennial large-scale multinational power projection/sea control exercise. UNITAS • A multi-lateral Inter-America Naval Exercise

  7. Key Interoperability Enablers for Multinational Standardization Policy • NATO Policy • US Policy • Standard Equipment • Standard Designs • Common Materiel • Common Support Equipment Doctrine • Common Development • Agreements • Publications • Updates

  8. HOSTAC ProgramExample of Multinational Standardization • Helicopter Operations from Ships other Than Aircraft Carriers • Purpose: Cross Deck Operations/VERTREP • Includes 4 regions: • NATO • Inter-American • Pacific • Middle East • APP-2/MPP-2 Vols I & II • Updated annually • New Pocket Guide

  9. Multinational Publications Logistics Ship-to-Ship Towing EOD HA/DR Maritime Interception Exercises Replenishment at Sea Communications • Multinational Publications provides guidance to approximately 80 nations to support Operations and Exercises • 36 Multinational Publications Integral part of US Navy Warfare Library • Includes Areas Such As: • Maritime Doctrine • Basic Tactics & Signals • Naval Mine Warfare • Sub Escape and Rescue • Underwater Diving • Medical • HOSTAC

  10. Benefits of Multinational Publications • Established International Process • Releasable by any US Unit – Unclassified material • Continuously reviewed and updated – USN very active user and sponsor of • International Standards used daily • Formations/Signals • RAS • Cross Deck Operations • Maritime Interception • MEDIVAC • Lessons Learned – Lead to new standard development and expansion of Multinational Publication Library • Expanding into non-maritime world - Afghanistan • Often developed in parallel with US TTP • Fill voids in US Navy doctrine – ATP-1, HOSTAC PG, Naval Mine Warfare, etc • World-wide distribution

  11. Issues • Funded forums for development of maritime doctrine • NATO Lead • Global Forums • Continued growth of IT access restrictions • US CAC restriction vs International Forums • Increased US IT Security Measures • Resources • Elimination/Unfilled key Standardization SME positions • Funding of US participation

  12. The Way Forward • Continued Expansion into non-maritime areas (EOD? Medical? Peace Support?) • Expansion into multinational maritime training • Video Clips • Tie to US doctrine/TTP Development • Tie experimental development USN TACMEMOs with NATO EXTACs • Global Forums for doctrine/TTP Development • Multinational Doctrine - Most bang for the buck
