Eyes through the ether: ground based air surveillance RADAR survey / Withington Thomas   Journal Article
Withington Thomas Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2012.
Summary/Abstract During the Second World War, the nascent science of RADAR was chiefly concerned with the fixed wing aircraft threat. Over 60 years later, today's air surveillance radars have to keep watch not only fro planes but for helicopters, UAVs cruise missiles, and precision guided munitions. These radars have to be sufficiently robust and provide a low probability of intercept (LPI) to frustrate signals intelligence (SIGINT) collection, and Anti Radiation Missiles (ARMs).

Joint warfare in the 21st Century: the doctrine and practice of joint operations / Military Technology   Journal Article
Military Technology Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2012.
Summary/Abstract The document "Capstone Concept for Joint Operations" describes in broad terms the vision of the then Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Adm. Michael G. Mullen for how the joint force circa 2016-2028 will operate in response to a wide variety of security challenges. It proposes that future joint force commanders will combine and subsequently adapt some combi- nation of four basic categories of military activity - combat, security, engagement, and relief and recon- struction - in accordance with the unique requirements of each oper- ational situation. The concept is informed by last years, still current, strategic guidance, but because it looks to the future, it is intended to be adaptable to changes in that guidance.

The surf zone and very shallow water / Friedman, Norman   Journal Article
Friedman, Norman Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2012.
Summary/Abstract Why are littoral operations so difficult? What is particularly bad about very shallow water (VSW). Leading up to and including the surf zone (S2)? The reference is always to mine countermeasures (MCM) in an amphibious context, because otherwise ships can and should evade really shallow water. MCM close to and on the beach always seem to involve technology very different from what is needed in even slightly deeper water. Many navies otherwise skilled in MCM lack such techniques. because they are concerned mainly with keeping harbours open in the face of enemy mining rather than in supporting amphibious operations. Only a few Navies have invested in the ability to land despite resistance. including mines.
