Purpose of Presentation

• To explain the Army Intelligence MS Action Plan
  in the context of Army Transformation and the
  Objective Force
• To highlight principal actions in the plan for
  modeling ISR, the Environment and the Threat

Some Challenges for Modeling ISR and Threat

• Real Fusion for the Objective Force in 08
  (LTG Noonan)
• Measuring Contribution of ISR
• Integrated ISR Enterprise Flexible,
  multi-disciplined, seamless ISR at every level
  (Space to Mud and Subterranean)
• Situational Awareness and Understanding
• Common Operational Picture
• Contemporary Operational Environment

5
Principal Goal of the Action Plan

• Specify what actions the Army G-2
• needs to take to integrate efforts
• of intelligence community and MS
• community to model ISR and Threat
• in support of Army Transformation.

Action Plan Development

• Workshop 13-14 Nov 02 with over 40 Intelligence
  and MS organizations
• SISO-ARMY-INTEL-MS list server over 160

• Preliminary Draft Action Plan out for comment
  Suspense 28 Mar 03
• Coordination Draft will go out with suspense of
  12 May 03
• Coordinated Action Plan completed end of May
  03

7
Five Principal Actions

• Realistic Fusion
• Funding for algorithm development
• Research into Human Decision Making Performance
  Modeling
• ISR Architecture Representation
• Interoperable MS Environment (IMSE)
• Data
• Simulated Natural Environment
• Blue, Red, Gray
• Measurement of ISR
• Metrics and methodology
• ISR Training
• Embedded Training and Mission Rehearsal
• Robust, high fidelity, well integrated ISR and
  Threat models and simulations

8
G-2 MS Role

• Advocate for ISR and Threat communities at Army
  Joint levels
• Point man to identify and secure resources
• Integrator of MS, ISR, Threat communities to
  achieve representation of integrated ISR
  Enterprise

Strategic Context

• Simulation and Modeling for Acquisition,
  Requirements, Training (SMART), Army MS Plan
• Objective Force and Future Combat Systems (FCS)
  Embedded Training (Individual and Collective
  Course of Action Analysis/Mission Rehearsal)
• Army MS Domains (ACR, RDA, TEMO)
• Science Technology
• Joint Community
• Intelligence Community
• Homeland Defense and War on Terrorism

12
Strategic Intent

• Army G2 MS Team synchronizes MS actions that
  support Army Intelligence (AI) Transformation and
  Army Transformation in coordination with the AI
  Action Centers and the MS community.

13
Strategic Challenges

• Coordinate many efforts in MS and Intel
  communities
• Leverage SMART Domain initiatives
• Support Army Transformation
• Represent ISR and Threat for 2010 and beyond.

14
Implementation

• Focus on major events in Objective Force and
  Future Combat Systems (FCS) development
• FCS Milestone B Decision 15 May 03
• DCGS-A MS B 1st Quarter FY04
• OF First Unit Equipped 2008
• FCS IOC 2010
• C4ISR Focused Area Collaborative Team (FACT) led
  by TRAC
• Leverage organizational, Army, Intelligence
  funding

15
Opportunities for MS Community

• ISR Network Systems Architecture
• Realistic Fusion
• Collection Management Intel C2
• Data Availability
• Dynamic Synthetic Environment
• C2 Decision Making Tools
• Weather and Terrain Imagery, IPB/Running Intel
  Estimate
• Thinking, Adaptive Threat
