Abstract. The network centric warfare (NCW) model represents one of the
defining trends in information age military technique. Its aim is
to improve situational awareness and ‘accelerate the observation-orientation-decision-action (OODA) loop’.
While much literature exists which extols the virtues of NCW,
the problem of what constraints exist on the capabilities of
such systems has been explored much less frequently. This paper
identifies no less than fifteen constraints on the capability of
networked military systems, implemented with tactical datalinks, and explores their
respective causes and implications.
