ACCELERATE CHANGE OR LOSE

OVERVIEW

  • AIR FORCE CAPABILITIES
  • JOINT FORCES
  • NUCLEAR
  • CYBERSPACE
  • NATIONAL DEFENSE STRATEGY

AIR FORCE CAPABILITIES

  • Air and Space Superiority
  • Command and Control
  • Rapid Global Mobility
  • Global Strike
  • Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR)

AIR FORCE CAPABILITIES

AIR FORCE CAPABILITIES

AIR AND SPACE SUPERIORITY

AIR AND SPACE SUPERIORITY

  • We can no longer assume that the United States superiority is given...
  • In 25 years China went from having 24 fighter jets to 700 fourth generation fighter jets
  • China and our adversaries have been studying our military for 30 years, they are aware of our vulnerabilities

  • US Counter: Improving existing aircraft and introducing a 5th gen aircraft including the F-22 and F-35.

COMMAND AND CONTROL

COMMAND AND CONTROL

  • System confrontation
  • Paralyze major operational systems such as command and control logistics
  • Cost effective to disrupt command and control

  • United States counter: Joint All-Domain Command and Control (JADC2) that envisions connecting all of the sensors from all military services into a single server.

RAPID GLOBAL MOBILITY

RAPID GLOBAL MOBILITY

  • Began with the Berlin airlift in the 1940s
  • Provides global reach and is a prerequisite for global power, air and space superiority, and attack

  • US Counter:
  • Strategic bases
  • AMC is developing teams of multi-capable Airmen

GLOBAL STRIKE

GLOBAL STRIKE

  • China has become more versatile as its missiles have become smaller, more powerful, and more accurate
  • DF-21D: first medium-range anti-ship ballistic missle of its kind
  • WU-14: represents a potential leap in global reach, if mounted on an ICBM

  • US Counter: Modernize submarines, aircraft, etc.
  • B21 Raider Bomb
  • Northrop Grumman new ICBM
  • Took advantage of the pandemic to counter the arsenal that China is building

INTELLIGENCE, SURVEILLANCE, AND RECONNAISSANCE (ISR)

"Eyes and Ears on Adversaries"

INTELLIGENCE, SURVEILLANCE, AND RECONNAISSANCE (ISR)

  • The best weapons in the world are useless unless they are aimed accurately
  • China has built a wide variety of ISRs to provide forces with military-civil fusion to create the most technologically advanced military

  • US Counter: The House and Senate Armed Services Committees emphasized the importance of joint airborne ISR capabilities and established a Future of Defense Task Force to review and assess US defense capabilities to meet emerging threats

JOINT FORCES

and even more here!

and here...

JOINT FORCES

RISKS INVOLVED DURING ADVERSARIAL & NON-ADVERSARIAL CRISIS RESPONSE

WHAT DO WE SUGGEST?

  • ADVERSARIAL
  • Many will act without regard for the customary laws of war
  • Catastrophic: rogue states/terrorists using WMD to paralyze US power
  • Irregular: "unconventional" methods to counter stronger opponents
  • Disruptive: adversaries develop and use breakthrough technology to negate US advantages
  • NON-ADVERSARIAL
  • Goal: maintain unsurpassable peacekeeping humanitarian relief foreign and domestic
  • Risks: Money, manning, resources, equipment... is this sustainable?

Objectives 2

  • Build the Space Force
  • Promote diversity within the force
  • Invite innovation on all levels

UNITY OF EFFORT

  • "On-going cooperation and coordination in pursuit of a shared and clear view of the mission and a corresponding set of mission objectives between multiple parties"
  • What is the mission?
  • Promote world peace and create a better future for mankind
  • Places great importance on the nations security, stability, peace, and development

TACTICAL ACTIONS TO COUNTER OR DEFER POTENTIAL THREATS

Operational Effectiveness

Unity of purpose

Unity of Effort

  • Accelerate Change or Lose
  • While we were focused on countering terrorism our adversaries were focused on countering us
  • "Good enough" today will fail tomorrow
  • How do we make changes?
  • Space Force and elevation on US cyber command to be its own combatant command
  • Nuclear weapons: multi-year plan to modernize strategic nuclear deterrence force with next gen technology
  • FY22 Budget
  • Intermediate Range Nuclear Forces Treaty

NUCLEAR

HOW THE DOD LEVERAGES NUCLEAR ENTERPRISE IN RELATION TO CHINA

  • Trump Administration refuses nuclear treaty
  • 6.4% of the DoD budget is to deter nuclear warfare
  • Goal: One sided dominance for the US; able to dominate any level of escalation

CYBERSPACE

HOW DOES THE DOD LEVERAGE CYBER SPACE?

  • Space Force
  • Private sector entities/working with allies and partners
  • China still believes that we are "above" them with resources and technology

"For China the concern here resides with the prospect that the US might be inclined to leverage its superior offensive cyber tools, as well as warning and attribution capabilities to launch preemptive cyber strikes against Chinese assets, aiming to remove or diminish the Chinese potential to obstruct US military deployments to East Asia in defense of its allies."

NATIONAL DEFENSE STRATEGY

WHAT FACTORS OR IDEAS SHOW HOW CHINA USES THE INSTRUMENTS OF NATIONAL POWER?

HOW DOES THE DOD SUPPORT THE NATIONAL DEFENSE STRATEGY?

"DIME"

  • Diplomacy, Information, Military, Economy
  • "Win all without fight"
  • Investing in traditional power in the event of military conflict

National Defense Objectives

National Defense Objectives

Defending the homeland from attack

Sustaining Joint Force military advantages , both globally and in key regions

Enabling US interagency counterparts to advance US influence and interests

CONCLUSION

  • Air Force Capabilities
  • Joint Forces
  • Nuclear
  • Cyberspace
  • National Defense Strategy
