“See first” -- in combination with the network results in:Shared situational awareness among units and soldiersAbility to monitor vast territoryEnhanced knowledge of the enemy … soldiers mounted longer …

more survivable against low tech weapons“Act First” --- In combination with the network, superior maneuverability and precision fires results in:

Ability to surround and destroy enemy concentrationsEnhanced ability for discrete killing in the midst of civiliansKeeps enemy dispersed; unable to connect with populations or

massSmall logistical footprint, improved vehicle efficiency, and the network results in:

Sustained presence in the fieldLarger area of operational controlDistributed operations
