Introduction of the Network Centric Warfare concept to Czech Armed Forces

One of the features determining the strength of troops is command and control. The quality of command and control is determined by the quality of the command and control systems (C2S). The Czech Armed Forces are developing tactical command and control systems (TC2S) for the Ground and Air Forces. The TC2S were a little bit separately developed. Now, we want to use the benefit of shared situation awareness. The concept of Network Centric Warfare is a solution of this problem. The integration of both TC2S's is its main objective. To apply this concept, separate C2S's of different units are integrated into one logical system, into one joint C2S. Thus it is possible to create the common operation picture for all units of the task force.
