Centric Warfare (NCW) is a war-fighting concept designed to enable
the ADF to maintain superiority over its enemies, according to
the Directorate of Future Warfighting.
With the issuing of the NCW Road Map pamphlet in late March, ADF
personnel will be able to understand concepts that will guide
the future ADF.
Deputy director DFW LTCOL Mick Ryan said the concepts - robust
linkage of the land, air, maritime, informationand space battlefields,
shared situational awareness, proficiency of the decisionaction
cycle, synchronicity, and interoperability, promotes force agility
and flexibility.
NCW would give the ADF numerous tactical options and the ability
to conduct simultaneous operations, which target multiple sites
of adversarial weakness.
