"There is no crystal ball unveiling the future with perfect accuracy. The USAF must prepare for uncertainty; but it is certain that the future requires global strike capabilities. Effective global strike requires accurate targeting information. Surveillance and reconnaissance conducted in air, space, and cyberspace is the best way to gain this information and turn it into knowledge; all three domains are important, and all are required. In light of increasing technologic change, and fiscal restraints, this paper focuses on the following question: in a severely cost constrained environment, how can the Air Force modernize its existing & emerging assets to perform airborne surveillance and reconnaissance in order to enable global strike in 2035? This paper argues that fiscal realities require a strategy taking advantage of merging new technology on legacy systems. This strategy also requires smart acquisition of new aircraft utilizing game-changing technology such as nanotechnology in order to prepare for the most likely complex adversary scenarios. This is accomplished by addressing current and emerging sensor technology and their different types of collection capabilities. In addition, the different categories of airborne assets that can utilize those sensors, now and in the future are discussed. Those platforms and sensors are then contrasted against likely adversary scenarios to offer a prescription for the USAF. This paper advocates updating existing platforms with new technology rather than designing radically new platforms. The USAF has done this throughout its history, successfully merging legacy systems with emerging technology to accomplish its tasked missions."--Abstract.

The changes in intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) and processing, exploitation, and dissemination (PED) capabilities over the past two decades have led to ever-increasing demand from warfighters. Commanders, planners, and operators across the U.S. Air Force (USAF) ISR enterprise face difficult decisions about how to best meet ISR needs at the strategic, operational, and tactical levels. Yet USAF currently lacks a consistent, quantitative, empirically grounded method of assessing the value that the service's airborne ISR provides-which is essential to good resourcing decisions. This report presents an approach to ISR assessments that seeks to articulate the costs and benefits of USAF airborne ISR in specific operational contexts. Though aspects of this may be applicable across different USAF ISR organizations, this work focused primarily on the Distributed Common Ground System and the operational theaters it does or could support. The assessment methodology is designed to be flexible enough to support ISR resourcing decisions at different echelons, yet consistent enough to foster feedback, standardize data collections, and make use of empirical analysis methodologies.

"This paper provides an argument for the U.S. Air Force to invest in a robust space-based Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) architecture to support Global Strike in 2035. The detailed investigation provides recommends on future technologies the Air Force can pursue, which will provide relevant space-based ISR capabilities in a congested, contested, and competitive space environment. As these technologies progress and enable continuous space-based ISR collection in the congested, contested, and competitive space environment of 2035 U.S. decision makers will be able to strike globally putting any adversary target at risk."--Abstract.

"A military force's ability to 'know' their adversary and the environment in which they are operating is regarded as a key determinant in military success. In the vernacular of information age warfare this ability is represented by ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance). ISR is recognised as a key capability of the seamless Australian Defence Force envisioned in Joint Operations for the 21st Century, with airborne ISR playing a key role in the dynamic operating environment of the future. This book complements the ADF's current ISR capability development efforts by outlining a future airborne ISR concept designed to meet the needs of the future force envisioned in Joint Operations for the 21st Century. It provides an appreciation of what airborne ISR must provide commanders across all operating domains and outlines an airborne ISR planning methodology that optimises the use of airborne ISR in the seamless ADF. The airborne ISR concept outlined in this book provides a foundation on which the ADF can position itself to meet the challenges the future holds." -- Back cover.

Lingel et al. present alternative methods to (1) approach U.S. Air Force intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) tasking and assessment processes and (2) outline a methodology for assessing the benefits and costs of different ISR employment strategies. The U.S. Air Force greatly increased the number of operational surveillance and reconnaissance sensors and its ability to process data from these sensors in support of operations across a wide range of conflicts. However, along with the increased number of sensors comes an increase in the complexity of the tasking of these assets needed to prosecute either planned for or emergent battlefield targets. As part of the authors' research, they developed new assessment techniques and operational strategies to improve the command and control process for assigning ISR assets in dynamic environments. The authors also suggest tools to assist commanders of ISR assets in their decisions regarding allocating and retasking ISR assets. The report focuses on traditional target sets against adversaries whose behavior is well understood.

"The effective use of airborne ISR has been debated for several years. Since Desert Storm, the majority of airborne ISR platforms have been dedicated to Central Command's (CENTCOM) theater of operation. While the other theaters have legitimate intelligence targets to be monitored and pursued, CENTCOM has been the priority. This paper examines how ISR has been used in different theaters, how ISR assets are allocated to the combatant commands, improvements made in how ISR platforms operate, and recommendations on how the platforms can be used more effectively. The Air Force must seek training opportunities with ground forces before Army and Marine units deploy to foster a basic understanding of how ISR platforms can support them, as well as ISR operators learning what information ground forces want. This needs to start within the United States military services, but the education piece needs to happen with coalition partners too. Establishing a level of trust and understanding before ground forces deploy will enable success for real-time ISR operations."--Abstract.

This monograph examines the utility of implementing the mission command philosophy in airborne intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) operations. This study begins by examining Helmuth Von Moltke's views on the exercise of disciplined initiative in battle. Brian Lawson's design problem model provides a framework for analyzing constraints as a source of friction. Confederate calvaryman J.E.B. Stuart's Gettysburg saga provides a vehicle for mission command analysis, given similiarities between Civil War cavarly reconnaissance and modern airborne ISR operations. This study also focuses on the pursuit of airborne reconnaissance support by World War I artillerymen, whose views on organic control echo current dialogue on UAS employment. This monograph concludes by assessing the potential impact of enhanced implementation of the mission command philosophy on theater airborne ISR effectiveness.

U.S. military operations in the 21st century rely heavily on receiving and distributing information to and from the field of operation. Immense amounts of data must be collected, processed, and fused into knowledge via high-capacity networks. The required high capacity in a hostile environment introduces significant challenges and conflicting requirements to the communications network for a variety of reasons. The research in this report focuses on combat systems operating at medium and low altitudes, which pose different challenges from the challenges of intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) platforms operating at high altitudes: (1) Medium- and low-altitude airborne platforms, such as fighters and bombers, are closer to jammers and signals intelligence (SIGINT) receivers; hence, the adversary systems may require less sensitivity to intercept those signals and less power to jam them; (2) the low observability of the platforms can potentially be compromised by transmitting large amounts of data; and (3) during transmission of large amounts of data, platforms at lower altitudes are at a higher risk of being detected. To fully understand the issues and challenges, the author considered two types of threats: mobile jammers and SIGINT receivers able to detect and locate user transmitters. Such jammers and SIGINT receivers are hard to locate and engage. He first discusses data requirements and threats and examines current communications programs and shortfalls. He then analyzes a variety of options in terms of frequencies, waveforms, and antenna types, and makes suggestions for improving the current communications program based on altitude, range, data rate, and threat. The development of new systems, together with required platform modifications and new designs, raise technology and cost issues that are not addressed here but that need to be carefully examined.

Lighter-than-air vehicles (LTAVs) have the potential to offer great utility as joint intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) platforms by virtue of their capability to provide persistent surveillance, through long-dwell coverage over areas of interest at relatively low cost. The Department of Defense is at a crossroad in terms of exploring ways to conduct ISR in support of future battles. Existing space surveillance assets are aging and follow-on systems are plagued by cost overruns and cancellations. Furthermore current airborne ISR platforms, both manned and unmanned, do not offer a truly persistent surveillance. A solution to compensate for these current and anticipated deficiencies may be with LTAVs, which can stay aloft for weeks or months at a time to provide long-dwell coverage to support the collection of signals and imagery intelligence. LTAVs, such as, aerostats, airships, or hybrids, if properly developed and integrated into the operational commander's bag of tools, could prove to be a complementary ISR asset by providing persistent ISR coverage at relatively low cost.
