Future J-ISR

ISR activities are taking an increasing role in the execution of a wide range of critical missions, eg: Counter-intelligence and counter-terrorism, Maritime Domain Awareness, Space Defense, Security Communications in a Global Context. Maximizing the Information Superiority of the situation by J-ISR results not only in an operational advantage on the battlefield, but also in an advantage in all areas: air, land, sea, space, and, more recently, cyberspace. The experience of Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and the increasingly tumultuous Asia-Pacific region has clearly shown the absolute necessity to make a leap forward in ISR technology.

The conference aimed to bring together experts from government and industry to activate within the CESMA a working group to assist in designing the new Italian roadmap post 2020.
