Not to mention skynet would have been all over it. I cannot emphasize enough that we all need to read Tom Clancy books, yes all of them, it seems that boy knows alot more then the general populace and prints it off as fiction actually proves to be real. The events of today might as well be scripted by him.
Wel we might as well use the real terms instead of Skynet. And back then this would just be C4ISR. It is more than apparent that no one grasps the significance that I have posted actual diagram images of Ptech software that were from Ptech's website, showing that they used that software to do all of the battle command planning for Desert Storm in 1991 (which is very interesting because Ptech is plainly admitting that their own software existed BEFORE the company did, which is what I said in the Corbett interview. C4ISR is Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance.
The type of flight trajectory or combat operation/strategy/points of attack, etc that ANY aircraft whether Global Hawk or Tomahawk missile, is graphically represented in ptech's own diagrams. people do not understand this this software ENGINEERS WARFARE, IT FIGURES OUT HOW TO EXECUTE COMBAT OPERATIONS, TO EVERY MINUTE DETAIL, AND IT CAN CHANGE THEM IN REAL TIME, and where applicable, that DATA is FED to TROOPS and FORCES to act upon as they see fit, but it is the BRAINS behind everything today, it IS the basis for Future Combat Systems.

hereThe MIAA enables military information architects to create and maintain a structured, comprehensive, living "information back plane"--a set of integrated architecture models--that helps decision makers plan for and manage change in the information-related capabilities that are critical to the success of military operations and enterprises.
The MIAA creates and automatically enforces a consistent taxonomy (artifacts, interrelationships and rules) throughout all operational, system, and technical view products with domain-specific metamodels based on concepts and behavior rules adapted from the DoD C4ISR Architecture Framework, the CADM, and operational experience. The MIAA also incorporates the ability to organize architecture data according to Zachman, Boer and other architecture frameworks, and provides file-based interfaces to the Joint C4ISR Architecture Planning System (JCAPS) and powerful discrete event simulation capability (Design/CPN).
The Ptech Military Information Architecture Accelerator (MIAA) is based upon ideas and products outlined in the DoD C4ISR Architecture Framework, Version 2.1. That document is “intended to ensure that the architectures developed by the geographic and functional unified Commands, military Services, and defense Agencies are interrelatable between and among organizations’ operational, systems, and technical architecture views, and are comparable and integrateable across Joint and multi-national organizational boundaries.”
Ptech’s military architecture capability addresses these intentions, enabling military information architects to:
* construct fully integrated, interactive, C4ISR Architecture Framework-compliant models of the entire set of architectural data, and confirm the completeness and self-consistency of the data set
* conduct initial analyses of the data set or any subset thereof
* share both the model views and the analysis products among all stakeholders via web publishing and reporting
Our consultants can help you design and capture your architecture data within a single, concordant KnowledgeBase. This interactive, “living architecture” will enable you to represent and analyze data you have now, and will also form the basis for planning, assessing and managing future changes.”
Details
The Ptech Military Information Architecture Accelerator rests upon a conceptual model which governs the behavior of the modeling environment. This conceptual model includes classes and associations arranged in a set of metamodels whose rules were adapted from C4ISR Architecture Framework, V. 2.1, CADM, and practical experience. Our object-oriented modeling environment allows you to capture and analyze data in a single concordant KnowledgeBase. All diagrams modeled in FrameWork are linked to each other through the metamodels that govern them and the objects they contain. In FrameWork, you can also attach subdiagrams to objects, providing as much “drill-down” capability as the architecture may require. Customized forms and reports augment the KnowledgeBase, offering text-based interfaces to the information. Taken together, these capabilities enable architects to slice and dice comprehensive, complex architecture data in a variety of ways.
Our Version 1.5 release supports modeling and reporting capabilities for:
Operational Products: OV-1, OV-2, OV-3, OV-4, OV-5, OV-6a, OV-6b, OV-6c,

CURRENTLY AVAILABLE OPERATIONAL ARCHITECTURE PRODUCTS:
OV-1: High-level Operational Concept Graphic The OV-1 model diagram is intended to represent a general overview to the lines of communication in your architecture. In FrameWork, it is a fully integrated subset of the data that adds significant richness and value on its own, and functions as a gateway to the rest of your KnowledgeBase.
OV-2: Operational Node Connectivity Description The OV-2 contains data on needlines and information exchanges between operational nodes. Through our forms interface, FrameWork allows you to enter one or more IERs per needline, as well as record specific characteristics for each IER. Our OV-2 model diagram also offers you the capability to organize operational nodes according to functional and process areas.
