Korea takes its first step to be weaned from USFK's intelligance dependency by fielding its own solution to GCCS-K:
Korea's military has a new high-tech command system that uses real-time multimedia reports to keep top brass informed and in control of what's going on in the field as it happens.
Called the Korea Joint Command Control System, or KJCCS, the system lets military leaders command battlefield units as they watch up-to-the-minute reports on a large-screen monitor in the Joint Chiefs of Staff situation room.
KJCCS was launched on Jan. 1 after three years and tens of billions of won in development (US$1=W939).
The system connects the JCS with the operations commands of Korea's Army, Navy and Air Force. It allows top military leaders a thorough understanding of the deployment of all weapons and troops of all three military branches at the same time.
The onl y problem comes with information exchange. With an air/naval centric USFK in the works after Wartime Operational Control transfer, expeditious information exchange is going to be critical, especially for tactical air support and naval gunfire support.
