Joint All-Domain Command and Control (JADC2)
Feb. 23 | 2 p.m. ET

As Department of Defence undertakings go, the Joint All-Domain Command and Control (JADC2) system is one of the most ambitious. Put simply, the initiative has two key ambitions: Firstly, It will smash stovepipe walls separating the US' armed services' C2 systems. Secondly, it will greatly accelerate the pace at which information can be shared between services across the battlespace. In short, the JADC2 represents an ambitious effort to embrace a manoeuvrist mindset, and the teachings of strategist Colonel John Boyd, yet further.

This webinar will explain the JADC2 architecture. It will describe what the JADC2 is intended to achieve and how it will be implemented. The webinar will then explain how JADC2 will work at the practical level, and how it may develop in the future.
