The Advanced Battle Management System (ABMS) Division is responsible for fielding aerial and terrestrial digital infrastructure, software and applications, and distributed nodes for command and control, and battle management.
Its branches include:
- Digital Infrastructure
- Aerial Networking
- Software and Applications
- Deployable Systems
- Enterprise Systems Engineering Team
Kessel Run is a division that delivers resilient command and control and targeting software capabilities that provide warfighters with decision advantage. Kessel Run architects and acquires the means to connect weapon systems with warfighters and decision makers to enable the Joint force to win against the pacing challenge in an era of Great Power Competition.
Command, Control, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C2ISR)
The Command, Control, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C2ISR) Division provides acquisition and sustainment leadership supporting multiple operational weapons systems and mission-critical capabilities supporting the Air Force intelligence community. ISR functions manage a wide variety of systems for collecting, processing and disseminating intelligence needed by national security decision makers and military commanders. Those systems include:
The Air Force Distributed Common Ground System (DCGS) supplies multi-sensor derived intelligence, and kill chain enabling capabilities across the globe.
The Integrated Broadcast System (IBS) generates and disseminates secure tactical intelligence data to warfighters via multiple transmission modes.
The Global Command and Control System Air Force (GCCS-AF) presents accurate, complete, and timely battlespace visualization to combatant commanders.
Airspace Mission Planning
The Airspace Mission Planning Division is responsible for developing, delivering, and sustaining world-class software solutions to enable full-spectrum mission planning and command and control for Joint service warfighters and more than 40 nations through Foreign Military Sales valued at more than $300M.
The division manages approximately $2.5 Billion portfolio of more than 55 products directly supporting more than 30 aircraft platforms, enabling global airpower projection in support of national security objectives. The division sustains legacy mission planning systems while executing modernization and development activities to deliver mission planning and C2 systems integrated into the DAF BATTLE NETWORK to achieve information dominance in an era of Great Power Competition.
Operational Response Team (ORT)
The Operational Response Team (ORT) is a small team comprised of operational and technical experts tasked with rapid prototyping and experimentation to ease transitions from acquisitions to operations. The ORT focuses on quickly filling key knowledge gaps identified either by the ASE Division, or one of the acquisition divisions within the C3BM portfolio.
Projects focus on areas where simulation is either impractical or needs to be validated with real-world data. The ORT is ideally situated to assist in areas where the Concept of Operations and Concept of Employment for emerging technologies is ill defined. Finally, the ORT reports directly to the PEO C3BM and, as such, can be tasked directly to assist in unforeseen ways to ensure the PEO fields relevant C3BM solutions as quickly as possible.
Space C3BM
Space C3BM supports the development and integration of space command and control and battle management capability as the C3BM programmatic liaison to the Space C2 Enterprise.
In this capacity, Space C3BM orchestrates efforts to deliver, expand, and integrate battlespace awareness and battle management applications across the DAF and Joint force, while ensuring the fulfillment of Combined Joint All Domain C2 Joint Mission Threads in partnership with the C3BM Space Architecture Mission Integration Team.
Space C3BM partners with Joint and combatant command representatives to document capability need statements, facilitate operator-in-the loop software development, and deliver capabilities to distributed operations centers. Space C3BM works to align all USSF PEOs, as well as external DAF entities such as the National Reconnaissance Office and the Missile Defense Agency, to deliver optimal space capability and effects through the DAF BATTLE NETWORK. Space C3BM is primarily located at Space Systems Command and provides support for operational imperative planning and oversight.
