The Army, Navy and Air Force all have defining contributions to the Pentagon’s Joint All Domain Command and Control (JADC2) Implementation Plan now signed into effect by Deputy Defense Secretary Kathleen Hicks.

With the goal of multi-domain connectivity and high speed targeting and attack across land-air-and sea, each service is working on common protocols, secure interfaces and service-wide AI-enabled data analysis and information sharing. 

JADC2: Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines

The Army seeks air-ground connectivity as well as synergies with the Air Force and Navy, using unmanned systems, mechanized vehicles and helicopters. 

The Air Force seeks to not only connect air to air with unmanned teaming and ground-based command and control in real time, but also is achieving breakthrough success connecting to ground and sea systems. 

For instance, Marine Corps F-35s have already been able to connect with fast-moving Army war units on the ground, exchanging time-critical navigational and targeting data in real-time.
