This was a big step for u.s, and we eventually want to get the minentire kill chain down to single-dig- it utes as well," Hobbins said. Other ways planners were able to deliver information more rapidly was by using multiple computers organized by their center and listen to a classified briefing, then, w ith the click of a mouse, hold pri- - . vate chats or type instructions for the ongoing air campaign w hile he sits thousands of miles away. While testing the programs at JEFX '02, evaluators realized many initiatives could be delivered for mainstream Air Force specific functions. Previously, computers processed all types of information one at a time, transferring it from computer to computer before it was sorted for rele- use immediately. te vance, which consumed valuable time. "I call them 'the finders,' 'the deciders' One of these programs, the Master Air Attack Planner Tool Kit, allows the Air Force to use fewer people to build an air campaign plan, which is the overall, long-terplan for the air war, and an air tasking order, a detailed document directperiod. ing air operations over a successful Kit Tool so was MAAP "The that it is being pushed for use through the Langley Air Force Base Experimental Combined Air Operations Center and then on to Operation Enduring Freedom," Hobbins said. Another initiative, called CSAR 7, gives warfighters the ability to more quickly locate survivors on the ground in a scenario. "This software proved to be very good, and a version of that is also being vetted at before being sent to Langley's CAOC-OEF. Basically it takes the 'search' out of search and rescue by using equipment m and 'the shooters,'" Hobbins said. "They are continuously doing things at the same time instead of one at a time." The information between these systems was exchanged from machine to machine instead of having operators manually input the information, reducing operator error. "We want our air, ground and sea forces because to talk machine-to-machinthe take human out of the when you e, equation, it reduces the errors, and it improves the speed of the information to the warfighter," Hobbins said. Planners also tested the ability to make 24-ho- ur search-and-resc- ue X "virtual" decisions. The JFACC can check into a private room in a conference TRY OUR NEW OMBD MEALS Viy.M: l id for outstanding airmen we're going to have fielded to help us find the survivor and go after him," he said. Similar to the CSAR 7 program is the SOF Blue Force Tracker, w hich allow s the air and space operations center to locate special operations forces on the ground and accurately track their locations. During JEFX '02, planners integrated space assets into as many scenarios as possible to see how these resources might be used in the future. The Theater Space Control initiative showed how the JFACC could direct space assets from his computer terminal in the air and space operations center. Space warriors were also located in key positions in the center to use their expertise in predictive analysis, combat search and rescue, and damage assessments. Hobbins was able to gain a better picture of the battle and what actions were needed. "The programs tested at JEFX, especially the automated systems and space assets, will give commanders better situational awareness of the battlespace and warfighters faster access to more accurate information. We want to be able to strike targets before our adversary knows what we know about him," Hobbins said. ( Courtesy of A CC News) The Air Force Reserve Officer Training Course comScholarships for Outstanding Airmen allows manders the opportunity to select outstanding active duty airmen for an Air Force ROTC scholarship. If selected, airmen will be discharged from active duty to pursue a commission through Air Force ROTC. The scholarship pays for college tuition and incidental fees, plus a textbook allowance. e A stipend of $250 - $400 per month (dependent on class year) is also earned during the school year.
