Integrated Effectors

The co-ordination of interventions grounded on a common scenario ensures maximum operational efficacy and minimum risk of friendly fire or collateral damages. In particular, it helps ensure full awareness of the allied forces' position. Not to inadequately respond – or over-respond – to the threat, ensures maintaining an adequate intervention capacity to the operational planning.

Actuators are integrated into the information network and arranged according to planning as to maximise position and function with respect to the tactic and strategic evolution, while bringing in the integrated logistic aspects that are a constituent of the operational activities. Integration of actuators includes the use of crewed and uncrewed vehicles for highly critical missions.

The effectors integrated into the systems include:

  • Ground units (tanks and other armoured vehicles, gun batteries and soldiers with equipment suited to the new missions)
  • Airplanes
  • Helicopters
  • Ships
  • Missile systems

Forces in the field carry out the operating plan as a combined force, dynamically coordinating their actions thanks to constantly updated knowledge of the battlefield, provided in real-time by the continuously updated Common Operational Picture (COP).
