ANAAC C2 Development

In light of forthcoming additions to the ANAAC aircraft inventory, planned organisation growth and infrastructure changes due to International investment in the ANAAC, the Combined Air Power Transition Force (CAPTF) have identified the need to review and develop the current and future ANAAC C2 structure and processes.  The JAPCC, through ACT, have been requested to play a major role in that review.

Enhancing NATO PR Interoperability

Personnel Recovery is the sum of military, diplomatic and civil efforts to effect the recovery and reintegration of isolated personnel. The term ‘Isolated Personnel’ refers to personnel separated from their unit or organisation and requiring recovery, including personnel held against their will. The object of this project is to act as a portal for information regarding Personnel Recovery (PR). This will include information on all PR related activities that we are aware of and will present documentation under development as well as completed products. The aim of this is to facilitate and enhance interoperability and thus effectiveness and efficiency in the field of PR.

Air Power in Countering Irregular Warfare

The JAPCC paper Air Power in Countering Irregular Warfare has been released. One of our major workstrands in 2007 was to consider the role of air (and space) power in what we called security and stability operations and as characterised by NATO operations in Afghanistan. The paper encapsulates the thoughts of the practitioners, academics and others who contributed to the articles in our Fall 2007 Journal, and to the discussion at our 2007 Annual Conference, and from further research by the JAPCC.

NATO’s Future Joint Air & Space Power (NFJASP)
The aim of the NFJASP is to describe how NATO Joint A&S Power might be best employed in future operations, enabling both convergence of national efforts and identification of Alliance options for bridging potential capability gaps. It is aimed to be conceptualized within the future strategic environment with a 20 years look-ahead, using a comprehensive approach for the joint level of military operations with strategic/operational level focus. Current NATO and national concepts, doctrine, projects, technical developments, lessons learned and work in progress will be used as building blocks for this paper.

ENHANCING NATO AAR INTEROPERABILITY
The project will serve the transformation of joint air power and meet the strategic-level requirements of HQ SACT. The JAPCC AAR Co-ordination Cell ist the focal point for Alliance air-to-air refuelling strateic issues and is the best suited to develop this vision. No other entity in the NCS/NFS is working on any of these products.

NATO Space Operations Assessment
NATO's transformation to an expeditionary, network enabled Joint military force can only occur with space capabilities. This Assessment explains where NATO Space Power is today, and provides recommendations for NATO to better enable an effects based approach to operations by utilizing space capabilities. This document also outlines recommendations to better enable Transformation by addressing the need to develop NATO Space Power and better integrate space capabilities. Considerations for a NATO Space Policy are included as an Annex. The NATO Space Operations Assessment has been released by the Executive Director and was delivered to ACT in May 2008.

NATO StratAirMedevac Assets & Capabilities
For all NATO operations, there is a need to plan for the strategic aeromedical evacuation of wounded, injured or sick personnel. AJP-4.10.2 outlines the national responsibilities for strategic medical evacuation, but proposes the possibility of multilateral or multinational solutions or agreements. To enable nations to assess possible aeromedical capabilities, a catalogue of the national assets is required.
The aim of this project is to build a catalogue of assets and capabilities of NATO countries and possibly to develop interoperability.
