Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance Presentation Title April 15, 2017 Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance Analyzing and Reacting to Threats 2nd annual C4ISR, CyberSecurity, Robots Platforms & Sensors Conference Speaker Name

ISR – A Working Definition Presentation Title April 15, 2017 ISR – A Working Definition 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 Speaker Name

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

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

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

Increasing Multi-Mission Capability Buddy Lase Convoy Overwatch CAS Precision Strike CSAR Support Raid Overwatch TAC-A Target Development Talking Points: Harnessing the full capabilities of our future UAS force requires an operational concept that will optimize the employment of these assets to provide the right support, to the right warfighter at the right time As this chart highlights, our current UAS force has multi-role / multi-mission capability These capabilities will only increase as UAS platform, sensor and weapons technology continues to rapidly improve

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

Evolving ISR Capabilities Presentation Title April 15, 2017 Evolving ISR Capabilities AEHF Existing Today Tomorrow Objective Stove-piped Platforms Sensors Processing Ground Stations U2, JSTARS Integrated Sensor Systems 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 Speaker Name

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

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
