Multi-domain integration (MDI) – communicating and operating across services, nations and systems – has been noted as a core challenge for defence forces despite a number of technological and cultural solutions existing.
A survey released today by BAE Systems, where 400 senior business and IT decision-makers from military and private industry defence and aerospace organisations were interviewed, has highlighted the widespread acknowledgement of the challenge of multi-domain integration (MDI). Unsurprisingly, 91% of respondents viewed MDI ‘as difficult but essential’.
Survey respondents said ‘the speed of change of technological advancements (53%) and conventional war in Europe (41%) [have added] pressure to evolve defence technology strategy’.
Eighty-three percent of respondents said better MDI would reduce uncertainty and volatility, while 86% agreed that future wars would be fought in an ‘information battlespace’.
