With its unique focus on advanced approaches to naval intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) and the critical underlying technologies needed to empower distributed maritime operations (DMO), this book provides a complete discussion of the operational requirements for current and future naval applications. Readers will find sufficient details to enable the design and development of technical solutions to achieve advanced information fusion as well as command and control concepts. The book approaches distributed naval operations and the role of ISR by applying advanced technologies and addressing future conflicts, providing naval officers and engineers with the information needed to plan and develop advanced systems. This is a great resource for anyone in the ISR, intelligence, space, antisubmarine warfare, electronic warfare, and surface warfare disciplines who are looking for an in-depth understanding of advanced ISR operations and technologies.

A comprehensive discussion of operational requirements for future naval operations with sufficient detail to enable design and development of technical solutions to achieve the advanced information fusion and command and control concepts described. This book provides a unique focus on advanced approaches to Naval ISR and the critical underlying technologies to enable Distributed Maritime Operations (DMO). Also describing the approach of distributed Naval ops and role of ISR applying advanced technologies and addressing future conflict, new U.S. Naval maritime approaches, distributed Maritime Operations (DMO) and the newest U.S. Navy operational concept. This is a great resource for Naval officers in the ISR, Intelligence, Space, ASW, EW and Surface Warfare, disciplines who seek an in-depth understanding of advanced ISR operations and technologies as well as Navy and industry managers and engineers planning and developing advanced naval systems.
