“Command and control systems-based on information and communications technology - and precision-guided munitions are be critical to all stages of the Pentagon's efforts to transform itself to deal with 21st century threats. ---- Paul Wolfowitz, DSECDEF at AIAA lunch,19 Feb 02.
“The area with the greatest potential payoff...is in C4ISR... (to) ensure our commanders have the best information for rapid battlefield decision-making” ---- Gen Richard B. Meyers, CJCS, SASC testimony, 5 Feb 02
