Appendix B
Responsibilities of
Supporting Agencies
This appendix discusses the functions and responsibilities of Army and joint
agencies supporting IO and C2W across the operational spectrum. It discusses
the missions and functions of the Joint Command and Control Warfare Center
(JC2WC) and LIWA. It delineates the responsibilities to the commander-in-chief
(CINC) and Army component commander, respectively. IO/C2W planners should
use this appendix to gain a better understanding of the support available
from these agencies.
JOINT COMMAND AND
CONTROL WARFARE CENTER
CJCS Instruction 5118.01 is the charter for the JC2WC. This paragraph
provides key excerpts from that document to provide combatant commanders,
JFCs, and other units requiring assistance in C2W with a ready reference
of the support provided by the JC2WC.
Mission
The mission of the JC2WC, formerly the Joint Electronic Warfare Center (JEWC),
is to provide direct C2W support to operational commanders. The JC2WC supports
the integration of the constituent elements of C2W--OPSEC, PSYOP, military
deception, EW, and destruction. It also supports the noncombat military
applications of IW throughout the planning and execution phases of operations.
The JC2WC provides this direct support in the following priority order:
-
Joint force commanders (combatant commanders, subordinated unified commanders,
and joint task force commanders).
-
Service component commanders.
-
Functional component commanders.
The JC2WC also provides support to the Office of the Secretary of Defense,
the joint staff, the services, and other US Government agencies. The JC2WC
maintains specialized expertise in C2W-related--
-
Systems engineering.
-
Operational applications.
-
Capabilities.
-
Vulnerabilities.
Functions
The JC2WC, through the joint staff director for operations (J3) serves as
the principal field agency within DOD for C2W support.
J3
As stated in CJCSI 5118.01 the JC2WC, acting through the joint staff
J3--
-
Interfaces with the joint staff, services, DOD, and non-DOD agencies to integrate
IW (see DOD Directive TS3600.1) with DOD C2W efforts.
-
Participates in the Joint Special Technical Operations System by analyzing
capabilities (in coordination with the intelligence community), as tasked
by the director of the joint staff, to optimize special technical operations
support to combatant commanders.
-
Serves as the joint staff central point of contact for reviewing joint C2W
mission needs statements (MNS).
-
Coordinates with the joint staff director for C4 systems (J6) for C2-protection
issues.
-
Assists the CJCS, through the joint staff J3/STOD (special technical operations
division that serves as the doctrine sponsor for C2W and EW) in the development
of joint doctrine and joint tactics, techniques, and procedures.
-
Evaluates C2W effectiveness in combat.
-
Serves as the DOD focal point for defining, coordinating, and overseeing
the integration of those data bases/data systems necessary to establish a
common joint information base for conducting C2W. This information
base comprises intelligence and operational data bases/data systems,
that is, data on US equipment, systems, and forces. It also includes other
types of data bases (the remainder of the world's systems--geophysical,
topographical, psychological, and doctrinal) necessary to conduct C2W in
the combatant commander's battlespace. It includes US and, as available,
allied WARM (weapons assignment research model) descriptions and descriptions
of US-manufactured systems sold to other nations. For the most part, this
information base:
-
-Is releasable to allied nations annually in coordination with the services,
intelligence agencies, and other cognizant agencies and commands.
-Provides a report to the joint staff J3 on the currency and shortfalls in
the C2W information base.
-Participates in the development of decision aids used to manipulate the
C2W information base.
-Orchestrates efforts for interoperability and connectivity of data and systems
to support C2W with the GCCS in cooperation with the DOD intelligence community
and the joint staff J6.
-
Organizes, manages, and exercises the joint aspects of EW reprogramming.
Develops procedures to assist commanders with the identification, validation,
and dissemination of electronic threat changes. Coordinates compatibility
and facilitates exchange of data used in joint EW reprogramming among the
intelligence community, services, and combatant commands.
-
Organizes and facilitates development of joint C2W simulations supporting
wargaming among the joint staff, services, combatant commands, and combat
support agencies, in conjunction with the Joint Warfighting Center.
-
Serves as the joint staff's point of contact through the J3 for C2W joint
universal lessons learned (JULLS) reported under the Joint After-Action Reporting
System (JAARS) and referred for action as remedial action projects (RAPs).
-
Participates in C2W research or studies of an operational nature for DOD
organizations and agencies.
-
Maintains knowledge and coordinates with the services on C2W systems engineering
initiatives, laboratory programs, and industrial developments.
-
Performs vulnerability and effectiveness analyses of US equipment used in
C2W. Coordinates C2 vulnerability analyses with the joint staff J6.
-
Supports allied nations or international organizations on a case-by-case
basis. Support includes representing the US in appropriate international
forums.
-
Produces the annual DOD EW Plan in conjunction with the Services and combat
support agencies.
-
Develops and produces an annual DOD C2W plan in conjunction with the services
and combat support agencies.
COMBATANT COMMANDER
For direct combatant commander C2W support, the JC2WC maintains deployable
C2W augmentation teams to support the combatant commander as requested. To
provide timely analysis and advice for planning and coordination of C2W,
these teams maintain an awareness of the threat and the OPLANs in the respective
combatant commanders' AORs. In addition, the teams--
-
Train with and develop routine working relationships with other organizations
having specialized expertise in the constituent elements of C2W.
-
Provide C2W technical assistance.
-
Function as the central coordinating element for organizations that support
the CINC's C2W effort.
-
Maintain the capability to assist in planning and coordinating the employment
of joint and combined EW assets as part of the JCEWS.
-
Provide in-theater guidance and assistance for the joint coordination of
EW reprogramming.
-
Provide timely advice and comprehensive EW analysis support, such as radar
terrain masking overlays, and predictive analyses (for example, Proud Flame).
As required, the JC2WC requests augmentation from specialized organizations,
through the joint staff J3, for a deploying JC2WC team to provide a more
comprehensive C2W capability to the supported commander. The JC2WC also--
-
Maintains a dedicated action officer at the JC2WC for each combatant command
to interface with each CINC's staff and integrates C2W into appropriate OPLANs.
These action officers are responsible for all JC2WC actions regarding C2W
support of their respective CINCs.
-
Provides tactical and technical analyses of C2W in military operations.
-
Supports C2W training by assisting combatant commanders in planning, conducting,
and evaluating the C2W aspects of joint exercises, including field training
exercises, command post exercises, and computer simulations for wargaming
in collaboration with the Joint Warfighting Center.
-
Coordinates and conducts field demonstrations of emerging technologies responsive
to CINC C2W needs.
LAND INFORMATION WARFARE ACTIVITY
AR 520-20 established the Land Information Warfare Activity to integrate
OPSEC, military deception, PSYOP, EW, and physical destruction to support
IO and C2W. A memorandum of understanding (MOU) delineates the command, control,
and functional relationships of HQDA and the US Army Information Systems
Command (USAINSCOM) with LIWA. It further delineates HQDA command and staff
responsibilities for IO/C2W. LIWA is under the command of USAINSCOM. The
director of operations, readiness, and mobilization exercises operational
tasking authority of LIWA, including IO/C2W operational support policy and
program planning guidance.
This provides a quick reference of the support that LIWA provides. CJCS has
directed Army commanders to integrate IW/C2W into exercises, OPLANs, and
OPORDs. Emerging Army doctrine calls for the formation of an IO activity
to help land operational and tactical commanders integrate C2W with other
information domains such as the GIE, collector-to-shooter linkages, INFOSEC,
counterintelligence (CI), HUMINT, and survivability. Given the technical
complexity of this doctrinal requirement and the need to operate in a
resource-constrained environment, LIWA fields tailored support teams such
as FSTs to help operational and tactical battle staffs integrate IO/C2W with
plans, operations, and exercises.
Mission
LIWA coordinates multidisciplined intelligence and other support for operations
planning and execution, to include C2W data base support, HUMINT, CI, and
TECHINT. LIWA is electronically connected with other national, DOD, joint,
and service IW facilities or centers. Integral to LIWA is the Army Reprogramming
Analysis Team-Threat Analysis (ARAT-TA) collocated with the US Air Force
at the Air Warfare Center. ARAT-TA provides the technical expertise to ensure
target-sensing weapons systems are correctly programmed to meet the specific
conditions of a designated AO.
LIWA has been specifically designed to provide tailored support to the land
component commands. LIWA's purpose is to provide commanders with technical
expertise that is not resident on the command's general and special staff
and to provide responsive technical interfaces with other commands, service
components, and national, DOD, and joint information centers. When deployed,
the LIWA FSTs become an integral part of the command's IO staff. To facilitate
planning and execution of IO, LIWA provides IO/C2W operational support to
land component and separate Army commands and active and reserve components
(AC/RC).
Functions
LIWA acts as the operational focal point for land IO/C2W by providing operational
staff support to AC/RC land component commands and separate Army commands.
It coordinates, arranges for, and synchronizes IO/C2W intelligence and CI
support to land component commands. LIWA coordinates and deploys FSTs to
assist and support LCCs in C2-protect, including--
-
C4 security support.
-
Analyses, investigations, and surveys to assess the vulnerability of the
LCCs' C2 facilities to IO/C2W sabotage, deception, and attack and to assess
their ability to maintain personnel and security programs and protect such
facilities.
-
C4 threat advisories with recommendations for counter-countermeasures.
LIWA coordinates and deploys FSTs to advise LCCs on C2-attack, including--
-
Preparing deliberate and contingency plans and orders.
-
Preparing target lists, estimates, and assessments.
-
Analyzing the threat and interpreting the situation, critical nodes, enemy
vulnerability, defeat criteria, and BDA.
-
Maintaining selected, tailored IO/C2W data bases and monitoring the accuracy
of supporting data bases.
LIWA coordinates and deploys FSTs to provide battlefield deception planning
support to LCCs. Through participation in the Battle Command Training Program
(BCTP), combat training center (CTC) rotations, battle labs, and Force XXI
studies, LIWA coordinates with and provides assistance to TRADOC in the
development and integration of doctrine, training, leader development,
organization, materiel, and soldier requirements (DTLOMS) for IO/C2W. In
addition, LIWA--
-
Acts as the functional proponent for battlefield deception.
-
Coordinates the establishment of requirements for unprogrammed IO/C2W studies
to support operational contingencies.
-
Provides operational insight and recommendations to TRADOC and HQDA on Army
IO/C2W requirements and input into Army modernization strategy, policy,
scenarios, modeling, and simulations.
-

to develop an in-depth understanding of the support command's organization
and procedures. FSTs, adhering to the component commander's intent and guidance,
provide a wide range of support, by--
-
Assisting in the preparation of war plans, contingency plans, and orders.
-
Helping develop target lists, estimates, and assessments.
-
Supporting the analyses of threat critical nodes, enemy vulnerabilities,
defeat criteria, and BDA.
