Enabling Network Centric Operations

International Aerospace (Intaero) is focused on supporting the transition of a military service from a Platform Centric mode of operation to a fully interoperable, Network Centric force. Network Centric Warfare (NCW) has emerged as the defining concept of information age warfare by networking sensors, decision makers and shooters through an information grid to maximize combat effectiveness. The benefits of embracing this doctrine include.

•

Shared Awareness
•Increased speed of Command
•Higher Tempo of Operations
•Greater Lethality
•Increased Survivability

Seamless integration of sensors, weapons and decision makers is contingent upon two main components; a Common Operating Environment (COE) and Mission Applications built in compliance with laid down interoperability standards. Intaero is currently leveraging experience gained over many years of working with data links and mission applications to bring these core, foundation technologies to services which do not have the benefit of working within the NATO Link environment.

Intaero NCW capabilities include:

	Real-time, decision support and command & control software
	Common Operating Environment and Tactical Data Link development
	Air defence mission applications
	Fighter control mission applications
	Joint Warfare Interoperability Centre - "The custodian of the standards"

Disaster Management and Control

The challenges of effective disaster management are very similar to those of information warfare - getting real time information and supporting logistics across low bandwidth data links to decision makers in diverse organisations and agencies. Intaero has solutions to integrate the response and backup teams, share their information and enhance their ability to respond effectively to natural disasters.

SMART Security

Building on expertise gained through working with real time command and control systems, International Aerospace has also launched an innovative, proactive security system, SMART (Surveillance, Monitoring and Alerting in Real Time). This integrates different technologies to create a holistic approach to prevent the crime, rather than reacting after the event. Integration of sensors and systems, as well as IP cameras using open software SMART to migrate to manage the entire building environment.
