The Emerging CAF Deep Sense-Strike Complex

[ytz]

Not sure if people have recognized the emerging strategy behind CAF acquisitions that focus on long range sense and strike.

Sensors. AEWC, OTHR, CDSEA, DESSP

Shooters. Eventually we'll have HIMARS with PrSM, RCD with TLAM, F-35s with JASSMs.

By say 2036, the CAF will have a multi-domain deep sense and strike complex with the ability to acquire targets and prosecute them at substantial ranges (easily greater than 300 km).

Something to consider for discussion.

Now if only we can build the software and data integration to go with all that capability.....

And the ammunition and parts production and stockpiles to sustain that capability.

It's a capability class normally reserved for more substantial powers. I bring it up because with all the doom and gloom sometimes, or the focus on drones, the actual strategy is lost in the noise.

Best we can do is let DLCSPM give contracts to GDMS to produce 1990s technology in the 2030s.
