SCOPE
• Navy’s Warfighting Direction
• Force Generating Joint Capabilities
- Challenges
- Options and Choices
• Generating the Air-Sea Capability
• Future Work
Navy’s Warfighting Direction
• Maintaining our Guiding Priorities
- People, Sea/Airworthiness and Warfighting
• Meet our Commitments
- Enduring- Emerging
• The Cathedral – NS 18 Pelorus
- Developing the Plans – Navy Warfighting Strategy 18.
• NWS Phase 1 Objective ‘Stabilise’
- Core Unit Skills, OPQUALS and Individual Training- Experiment on concepts for TG Warfare
- Identify gaps and areas for focus
• NWS Phase 2 Objective ‘Consolidate’
- Implement Ocean Series focus on Joint Sea Combat- Establish enabling elements tested in Phase 1 (IW, SCC and
MOC Staff etc)- Coordination within Joint Collective Training construct
Why Joint Sea Combat
• CDF has clearly established his policy on Joint Collective Training and Certification in CDF Directive. CJOPS is tasked with certifying and employing this ‘Joint Force’.
• The Joint Force is based around concepts defined within the Joint Capability and Concepts Division and administered through JWC.
• JWC has advanced concepts where clear Joint equities and shared interests lie. (Amphibious, Joint Fires)
• Service domain concepts have not been resourced within the Joint Framework.
• Service domain concepts are at risk of being squeezed out unless they integrate, coordinate and optimise constrained resource.
• The Joint approach reflects reality, is consistent with policy, and ‘resonates’ with how we approach complex warfighting tasks.
Why Joint Sea Combat –Learning from the Amphibious Example
• ADF learned significant lessons from operations in Timor Leste in 1999 and 2006.
• Pre-eminent amongst lessons was that amphibious warfare needed to move from platform to a system centric view.
• The Amphibious Deployment and Sustainment System (ADAS) and Australian Amphibious Force (AAF) was advanced.
• The AAF considers all elements of the amphibious force and includes a Joint Force approach to Force Generation.
• Capability places CN as lead CM, DJFHQ leads the CRP, concept is sponsored by FD Branch managed by a Joint CIT, overseen by JAC and reported to COSC.
• Operationally DJFHQ coordinates the FORGEN cycle of AAF and CJOPS directs its training and employment.
Why Joint Sea Combat
• FPR highlights the need for a single unifying concept and exercising framework that meets CDF and CJOPS need.
• The Sea Series is broadly accepted, incorporated within the PADFA and provides a working model.
• Army has developed the Joint Land Combat (Land Series/Hamel)
• Navy has built Joint Sea Combat (Ocean Series) and leveraged Sea Series to include littoral warfare threats.
• Air Force supports SEA, LAND and OCEAN Series but there is no comparable Joint Air Warfare activity (JAW is subsumed).
• Service FORGEN Headquarters are ‘subcontracting’ the concept development, FORGEN and certification of joint physical domains on behalf of Joint and it is working.
• Three environmental headquarters have worked to develop a coordinated approach to Force Generation that is resourced and sustainable.

Joint Air Warfare
• Joint Air Warfare is conducted within the construct of existing FORGEN activities.
• Joint Fires (and by association networks and battlespace) is being championed within Force Development Branch
• Ships routinely sail in JADIP categories and are active within the network.
• Navy’s Air Warfare Officers are principally drawn from FC branch who are trained at RAAF WLM (E7 or FFCE)
• E7 Sim routinely dials into Navy STX activities in joint and combined context. (More complex than live)
• Air Force and Navy routinely collaborate through AMWC and AWC, coordinate Jericho with Nike (MWP) and co chair Maritime Warfare Steering Group.
The Good
Joint Air Warfare
• Joint Air Warfare is not generated as a Joint System.
• The Joint Air Warfare System (Training, Doctrine, TTPs, Network and Platforms) is not certified.
• Joint Fires (and by association networks and battlespace) is being developed but is only certified in part.
• The JAWC established by Air Force is in abeyance and is only partially subsumed within JWC.
• There is no deliberate mechanism to identify and then rectify deficiencies in the JAWS.
• There are few exercises that test ADF JAWS in the maritime domain. Those that do have identified shortcomings in TTPs.
• The ADF JAWS is becoming more complex and will require attention.
The Not So Yet Good
Conclusion
• As Navy increasingly focuses on TG/Force level operations and fields 5th generation capabilities from the IIP, increased overlap between Air and Sea will be evident.
• The Force Generation of the Air-Sea Capability is presently complicated by a lack of a Joint System approach.
• Significant goodwill is evident at working level to integrate Navy/Air Force approaches to JAWS, and grass roots initiatives are valued.
• The emerging FORGEN calendar provides an opportunity to incorporate JAWS goals in existing collective training events, or create a bespoke activity.
• The current approach to JAWS is relatively immature (when compared to ADAS or JASW) but is ripe for development.
