isolation. Their potential is unlocked only when effectively networked across domains, services and coalition partners – integration that forms the core objective of the Department of Defense’ s Joint All-Domain Command and Control( JADC2) concept.

JADC2 aims to connect“ any sensor to any shooter,” empowering commanders to sense the battlespace, process information and act decisively across all domains at relevant speed. The strategy focuses on establishing common data standards, resilient technical infrastructure, human enterprise adaptation, integration with nuclear command and control, and modernising information sharing with mission partners.

Project Overmatch represents the Navy’ s primary contribution to this framework. It focuses on building the resilient communications networks and digital ecosystems needed to support Distributed Maritime Operations and provide decision advantage to a hybrid fleet of manned and unmanned platforms. Given INDOPACOM’ s vast

Wearable devices are using algorithms to monitor and predict risks such as heat stress, fatigue and illness

distances, reliance on naval forces and the need to counter sophisticated adversaries, successful implementation of Project Overmatch is considered vital for the theatre.

Project Overmatch represents a fundamental shift towards a“ system-ofsystems” perspective, where the network itself, and the integrated capabilities it enables, become more important than any single platform.

Integral to both JADC2 and INDOPACOM’ s strategy is the seamless integration of allies and partners. The command has established formal Project
