EXCLUSIVE: What Multi Domain C2 May Look Like: Raytheon’s Rick Yuse

The video will give you an idea of what may become the combat center of the future, but one dispersed around the world, instead of being concentrated in a few hyper-secure (but potentially targetable) facilities

FARNBOROUGH AIR SHOW: One of the best parts about covering an air show is bringing some of the gee-whizzery of the defense industry to the broader public, stuff beyond the metal tubing that flies fast and does neat things in the air.
Raytheon has been relatively quiet about its plans to develop systems for multi-domain operations, the US military’s evolving concept for defeating high-end adversaries with a coordinated onslaught from all five domains: land, sea, air, space, and cyberspace. But in a low-key way, the company is touting upgrades of some systems it already fields to help the four services and intelligence community connect all the data from sensors and weapons around the world and in space.
The video above will give you an idea of what may become the combat center of the future, but one dispersed around the world, instead of being concentrated in a few hyper-secure (but potentially targetable) facilities.

I spoke here with Rick Yuse, who has led Raytheon’s work on the Next Generation Jammer and is president of the company’s Space and Airborne Systems, about the company’s approach to multi-domain operations and its thinking on the latest Air Force plan for a JSTARS replacement, known as the Advanced Battle Management System.
Raytheon’s approach targets “five critical technology enablers,”  Yuse says
Those five enablers are critical to meet the new threat environment Yuse sees. as he described it in a recent speech. To translate his threat list into lay language:
The US military won’t be able to respond quickly enough to such threats without what Yuse calls “a seismic shift in focus.” That shift is part of what Raytheon has been working on for several years, he told me. In his speech, Yuse put the goal this way:
“If data is king, then decision speed, which is the outcome we are striving to achieve, is queen. The two, when combined to yield timely decision quality information, made possible through the magic of artificial intelligence, will change the world of national security.”
