However, continued disruption has pushed off the event a little further, said Gen. Terrence O\u2019Shaughnessy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe&#8217;re still super excited about it,\u201d O\u2019Shaughnessy said of the exercises. \u201cWe&#8217;re going to do the same thing, but just taking an even broader perspective.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Air Force conducted the first demonstration of the Advanced Battle Management System in December, using a number of operational platforms \u2014 including F-35 Joint Strike Fighters, F-22 jets and the Navy destroyer Thomas Hudner \u2014 to test a number of experimental technologies meant to allow the services to more seamlessly connect and share data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">U.S. Northern Command participated in the scenario, which involved the U.S. military having to defend the United States <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/air\/2019\/12\/21\/the-air-force-just-conducted-the-first-test-of-its-advanced-battle-management-system\/\" target=_blank>against a simulated cruise missile attack<\/a>. It will also play a major role in the second wave of experiments, with U.S. Strategic Command and U.S. Space Command added to the list of players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The U.S. military wants to be able to network all of its platforms together, enabling them to immediately transmit data and automatically cue weapons to target an adversary \u2014 a concept it calls Joint All Domain Command and Control. The Air Force conceives the Advanced Battle Management System as the key group of technologies that will enable JADC2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">O\u2019Shaughnessy said the upcoming Advanced Battle Management System experiments could help the joint force better understand how the technology works, as opposed to being \u201ca bunch of PowerPoint charts with lightning bolts and things on it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cPart of my intent from here, from NORTHCOM, is to really show the value to the joint force of what JADC2 can bring. And we do have some pretty good [advocacy] that we see not just in the Air Force, but growing in some of the other services as well,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>COVID-19 has pushed the experiment until August or September, says the head of U.S. Northern
