Defence Studies Vol 6 No 2, June 2006, pp.189-214 (105)Summary: Most development effort for Network Enabled Capability (NEC) currently goes into the creation of technology. This article puts the case for doctrine to be developed in parallel with technological innovation. Specifies three main areas requiring doctrinal development: achieving balance between Mission Command and direct commander involvement, decreasing the vertical command structure, and the creation of a universal common military language understood by all forces. (The article is written from an American perspective so the forces might mean only the US military, but more widely could be taken to mean all forces that are likely to work with each other).
