Architecture OneAdvantages and Disadvantages
• Advantages– Fits existing ATO structure– Ample manning to meet requirements– Centralized functionality – “it’s all here”
• Disadvantages– Large footprint: extensive manning, square
footage, administrative requirements– Centralized functionality does not enhance
network-centric warfare

Architecture TwoAdvantages and Disadvantages
• Advantages– Smaller footprint: easier to meet manning, square
footage, administrative requirements– Enables real-time task-to-target-kill loop– Emphasizes connectivity and network-centric warfare– Easier to upgrade
• Disadvantages– Does not fit in well with existing ATO planning
process – possibly too responsive– FPSC may become task-saturated earlier than in
other architectures– Very reliant on rest of network

Architecture ThreeAdvantages and Disadvantages
• Advantages– Clear division of responsibilities and functions– Ample manning for contingencies– Centralized functionality
• Disadvantages– Structure potentially rigid and unresponsive to
evolving needs– More difficult to upgrade systems or organization– Substantial admin, manning and square footage
requirements

• Systems Interfaces:– Navy’s Maritime ACCS Ship/Shore Tactical Interface
Component (MASSTIC)– Air Force’s Integrated Air Defense Command (IADC)– Army’s Air Operations Coordination Center (AOCC)– RPC net for real-time Radar Air Picture (RAP)– DISN Services– Battlefield Information, Collection, and Exploitation System
(BICES)
• Open systems architecture• Interoperability with legacy systems• Interoperability with Coalition Systems
