Integrated Fire Support in the Battle Space : Report of the Defense Science Board Task Force

This Task Force applied the methodology developed in another study on precision targeting to shorter range ground & sea launched weapon systems which operate under the control of the on-scene commander & are designed to provide fires, both organic & inorganic, in support of maneuver forces. This Task Force assessed the adequacy of current & proposed munitions; adequacy of Intell., Surveillance & Reconnaissance techniques & mechanisms to meet the needs of the tactical & operational battlefield forces; adequacy of battlefield command & control; impediments to fully integrated Air, Land & Sea fire support; & need for predictive engagement tools & derived intell. products to guide the commander in the use of forces to shape the outcome.Schneider, William, Jr. is the author of 'Integrated Fire Support in the Battle Space : Report of the Defense Science Board Task Force', published 2005 under ISBN 9780756748333 and ISBN 075674833X.
