WASHINGTON \u2014 The U.S. Navy will deploy a carrier strike group with advanced networking capabilities next year, in furtherance of the Pentagon\u2019s vision for Joint All-Domain Command and Control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The anticipated upgrades are the result of Project Overmatch<\/a>, the Navy\u2019s secretive contribution to JADC2 and its promise of seamless information sharing and expedited threat response across land, air, sea, space and cyber. Pentagon leaders say such speed and agility is critical to overcoming advanced adversaries, namely China and Russia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou probably don\u2019t hear a lot of details about what\u2019s going on behind the curtain,\u201d Undersecretary of the Navy Erik Raven said Sept. 7 at the annual Defense News Conference. \u201cBut really what this has to do with is matching up Navy innovation and Navy technologies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhat can we bring to the joint force?\u201d he said<\/a>. \u201cThis really matches up very well with the initiatives across the department on JADC2.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Army, Air Force and Navy have their own approaches and development cycles for JADC2, which leaders pitch as an ecosystem, not any one specific technology. Project Overmatch is the least publicly well-known of the bunch. Army and Air Force leaders are generally seen to be more willing to talk about Project Convergence and the Advanced Battle Management System, respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A major concern is cross-service coordination. Both Army and Air Force officials have in the past two months expressed reservations about integration<\/a>. House lawmakers, too, in a draft of the annual defense bill sought an inventory of JADC2 progress, timelines and potential shortfalls. Congress has previously slashed funding.<\/p>\n\n\n\t
