A New American Way of War? C4ISR in Operation Iraqi Freedom, A Provisional Assessment
By Dr. John Ferris
Abstract
This article uses evidence in the public domain about Operation Iraqi Freedom, as a means to assess how far American military forces are able to act on ideas about net-centric warfare, information operations, and command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance. From that basis, it assesses the feasibility of these ideas themselves.
