  1. Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance Analyzing and Reacting to Threats 2nd annual C4ISR, CyberSecurity, Robots Platforms & Sensors Conference

  2. Technologies, Information, and Systems Solutions that provide intelligence data, and the rationale for taking offensive action or countering force directed against National and/or Military assets ISR – A Working Definition

  3. Current Strategic Challenges • Traditional challenges - force on force conventional war (PRC, DPRK) • Must be prepared, but will likely be the exception • Irregular challenges -“unconventional” methods to counter traditional advantages of stronger opponents • Will likely be preferred method to target US interests • Catastrophic challenges – WMD or WMD-like effects • Disruptive challenges – breakthrough technologies to negate current US advantages in key operational domains Confront challenges earlier and more comprehensively, before they are allowed to mature

  4. Targeting Cycle Improvements • Detection-Identification-tracking-engagement-assessment cycle • New Technologies • Digital Film, Internet, Email • New Tactics • Persistent Bombing • “Swiss Army Knife” weapons loads • Predictive Battlespace Awareness • Coherent Change Detection • Real Time Integration of crypto/language experts • Compression of Kill Chain *NATO reviewed air targets

  5. Current ISR Operations • Planning, Analysis and Targeting • Predictive of emerging, future enemy actions and threats • Accurate, precise information • Information Gathering • Builds a “pattern of life” • Characterize enemy behaviors • Local Support • Convoy Overwatch, Route Surveys • Humanitarian mission support

  6. Buddy Lase Convoy Overwatch CAS Precision Strike Target Development CSAR Support Raid Overwatch TAC-A Increasing Multi-Mission Capability

  7. ISR Fusion Requirements • Asymmetrical Warfare • Broader areas for surveillance • Less time to locate • Requires more accuracy • Dominant SA • Rapid, expert analysis and information fusing • Synthesis with existing contextual knowledge • Multi-Sensor • Layered sensing requires robust processing • Sophisticated analytical tools to integrate data

  8. Evolving ISR Capabilities AEHF Today Existing Tomorrow Objective • Stove-piped Platforms • Sensors • Processing • Ground Stations • U2, JSTARS • Integrated SensorSystems • Integrated Sensors & Processing • Integrated Ground Stations • Unmanned Platforms • Multi-Mission Systems • E-10A/MC2A • Space Based Radar • USAF C2C • Multi-INT • Information Fusion • Multi-Mission aircraft (MMA) • DD(X) • Network Centric Warfare • Fully Interoperable Global Grid • Real-Time, Interactive Multi-INT • Achieve Rapid Global Engagement of strategic targets Goal – Integrated Air, Space, and Ground C2ISR

  9. Operational Challenges to ISR • Insufficient ISR capacity and capability • All ISR is Low Density/High Demand • Balancing rapid acquisition with sustainment (“boutique” systems) • Developing a fully interoperable, interdependent ISR structure (including NTISR and NTM) • Eliminating multiple stove-piped architectures and complicated C2 infrastructures that slow information dissemination • Developing capabilities to provide adequate predictive awareness of adversary intentions and reactions • Developing capabilities to identify, monitor, track, and engage specific individuals, small groups, and mobile, concealed, and buried targets

  10. Obstacles for Global ISR • Permissive vs Non-permissive environment • Air Space for UAS • Sensors optimized for varied terrain • Breakaway from FMV = persistence paradigm • No silver bullet sensors/platform coming down the pipe • Global ISR capability visibility OEF/OIF May Not Be The Template
