Ensuring the acquisition and appropriate application of C4ISR capabilities and assets will guarantee informational superiority in a century that has been deemed the age of information. Maximising situational awareness and informational superiority via C4ISR translates not only into an operational advantage on the battlefield but an advantage in all domains, including air, land, sea, space, and most recently, cyberspace. Attaining cutting edge C4ISR capabilities and technology will ultimately enable rapid response to emerging threats in a dynamic and changing region.

There now is but one question on the minds of the military commanders responsible for increasing situational awareness and interoperability via the integration of C4ISR technology: how can we further attain a more complete integration of C4ISR systems across air, land, and sea domains? The answer to this question will be discussed at the C4ISR Summit Middle East 2015.

Key themes of the summit:

• Challenges and solutions achieving interoperable open architecture
• Network architecture for secure exchange of information
• Operational feedback from naval and air missions
• Managing battle space architecture of the deployed space
• Airborne ISR platforms and data interpretation
• Developing effective C2 Systems
