Abstract :
As an aid in describing the Air Force Global Grid and how it can be integrated into present and future systems, the MITRE Corporation Global Grid Project has undertaken studies of various projects/systems/platforms as they would be impacted by the Global Grid. The author reviews the basic Global Grid tenets, extends them to C2/ISR (command and control/information, surveillance reconnaissance) airborne platforms and applies them to Joint STARS showing how Joint STARS can evolve to the Global Grid.
