TIME IS RUNNING OUT: Register Now to Learn How to Maintain EMS Dominance at the EW Combat Systems Life Cycle Management Conference, July 17-19 Today’s EW combat systems are expensive and likely to remain in the DoD’s inventory longer as downturned budgets struggle to procure replacement systems. To ensure these systems remain effective, both performance insertion and cost reduction will be critically important to EW’s future. This conference will discuss in depth how all the Services and other DoD agencies insert performance enhancements into legacy systems. We will discuss cost reduction concepts including combat systems integration, and use, as a case study, the Navy’s new product-line approach to improve the vertical integration of its EW systems.
Specific Topics Include:
-
Industry support to EW sustainment
-
EW sustainment for Navy Crane Maritime, Air Force, Navy Aviation
-
Dahlgren working capital fund for equipment sustainment
-
Real time spectrum operations and operational testing
-
Framework for assessing cost and technology (FACT)
-
Next generation submarine EW system architecture
-
DoD strategies to decouple EMS/EW combat systems from platforms
-
Combat systems spiral development/Aegis combat systems baseline (ACB)
-
Government and industrial training to sustain EW systems
-
Commercial life cycle electronics education
KEYNOTE SPEAKERS ANNOUNCED:
Congressman Rob Wittman, Virginia’s First Congressional District, 112th Congress
Jaymie Durnan, Senior Advisor to the Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense Research & Engineering, The Pentagon, Washington, D.C.

THINGS ARE HEATING UP IN THE PACIFIC: Don't Miss the Pacific Theater Air, Sea, Land Battle Concept: IO/EW/Cyber Operations Conference, October 16-18 in Honolulu
The Information Operations Institute and the Association of Old Crows are proud to present this conference on the hottest topic facing the world today and in the future: The Pacific Rim. Sessions include topics on the South China Sea and surrounding waterways of global significance. This International Conference brings experts from the U.S., Japan, Korea, and other countries to discuss the issues affecting this area, new concepts of operations (air, sea, land battle concept), with a concentration on programming and budget areas.
The South China Sea is an area of primary concern for many nations. The U.S. DoD is building its air, sea battle concept encompassing not only traditional air and maritime operations but also incorporating the IO/Cyber/EW operations and programming. It is critical that all nations come together to build viable joint concepts and ensure the programming funding is in place to bring the concepts to fruition. Foreseen as an annual event and concentrating on strategic international partnerships, this conference promises to be one that is on the leading edge of future operations in the Pacific Theater.
