What's New  Two great conferences in one. Secret/US only LPI conference and a classified US only with appropriate clearance ELINT/SIGINT session at the Naval Post Graduate School in Monterey, CA. Host hotel is the fabulous Hyatt Monterey right across from NPS. Conference features classified lab tours on NP and ITT's Morgan Hill facility! The Worldwide EW Infrastructure Conference at the Georgia Tech Hotel & Conference Center in Atlanta. Packed with senior military and government officials from around the globe presenting and discussing WW Interoperability, Foreign Military Sales programs and policies, range accesibility, and much more. This is the one you don't want to miss! The conference theme is "Operationalizing Intelligence in Electronic Warfare for the 21st Century." To address this theme, the agenda is built around four key sessions. 1. Identifying the Problem. 2. Role of Intel in EW from an Ops Perspective Panel. 3. Driving Force behind Operational Intelligence. 4. Next Generation Technologies.The US Air Force has revealed that its primary airborne electronic attack platform, the Lockheed Martin EC-130H Compass Call, is under review by a fleet viability board. The board's members will determine by January how the airframes of the 14-aircraft fleet have held up after nearly a decade of hyper-activity. (Flightglobal) Seven Army Special Operations Command soldiers were killed in a helicopter crash Monday in western Afghanistan. Chief Warrant Officer 4 Michael P. Montgomery, 36, was a pilot and electronic warfare officer, according to the Department of Defense (DOD). The accident still is under investigation. (Seattle Times) United States Defense Secretary Robert Gates welcomed a vice chairman of the People's Liberation Army to the Pentagon last week in what many analysts saw as a sign of warming ties. Yet the smiles masked China's aggressive development of cyberwarfare, and concern in Washington that in this area, America is on the defensive. (Wall Street Journal) When Kelly Air Force Base was ordered shut down in 1995, more than 17,000 jobs left town. Now the military presence is growing again. This time, though, the new force will not comprise fighters, bombers or boots on the ground. Instead, the city is hosting the fastest-growing domain of government and military spending: cyberwarfare. (New York Times) Wayne Misenar remembers his four years aboard the USS Charles F. Adams as being the most memorable as well as the most challenging of his Navy career. (Florida Times-Union) The Italian defense ministry is performing a high-wire act to protect major defense modernization projects in the face of a new defense spending plan that barely meets the minimum sustainment level.
