Joint All-Domain Command and Control
U.S. defense initiative to connect armed forces sensors into a unified network / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Joint All-Domain Command and Control or JADC2 is the concept that the Department of Defense has developed to connect sensors from all branches of the armed forces into a § unified network powered by artificial intelligence.[1][2][3] These branches include the Air Force, Army, Marine Corps, and Navy, as well as Space Force.
Each military branch has its initiative that contributes to JADC2; the Army has Project Convergence,[4] the Navy has Project Overmatch,[5] and the Air Force has the Advanced Battle Management System,[6][7][8] also known as ABMS.[9] The Space Force has the Space Development Agency's National Defense Space Architecture (NDSA).[10][11][12] See § Outernet
One primary application of JADC2 is a request— a call for fire (CFF).[lower-alpha 1] Combined JADC2 is almost ready for deployment pending Congressional approval of FY2024 funding.[13][14]
