From Ground to Exosphere 15-Years of The Joint Air Power Competence Centre ‘NATO’s Dedicated Air and Space Warfare Centre’ Dear Colleagues, I am often asked what an Air Power Competence Centre is and what it does? I also have to sometimes explain, in these increasingly resource-constrained times, the value of the JAPCC’s work to…

The thesis offered is simple: We have neglected and under-resourced FP for many years for a variety of reasons, both deliberate and unintentional, that are explained within the paper. The impact of this, it is suggested, is that an intelligent and capable adversary or indeed, one that just gets lucky, could have a devastating effect on military capability. Furthermore, this effect could be one that severely damages the Alliance’s physical ability, or even its resolve, to respond!
Throughout 2020, the JAPCC offered expertise in the development of the NATO Warfighting Capstone Concept, working closely with our partners across ACT and ACO. NATO intends to build on this Capstone Concept as the strategic vision for the next twenty years, and the JAPCC was honored to be part of its production.
Issue 31 addresses some hot topics in the Alliance today including 4th and 5th Generation systems integration, emerging hypersonic technologies, AI support to Battlespace Management, and the evolution of the Cyberspace and Space domains in NATO.
Having access to the best technology is one thing but NATO’s real edge resides in the capability of its people. The ability to prevail in future conflict will be determined by the intellectual component – the ability to out-think any adversary will be decisive. The ‘home’ of the Intellectual Component for NATO Air and Space Power is the JAPCC – NATO’s dedicated Air and Space Warfare Centre.
This technical manual covers all aspects of having to counter the full spectrum of unmanned aircraft and their respective system components. It should serve to bring together both civilian and military experts by initiating thought and emphasizing NATO’s approach to a comprehensive solution for countering unmanned aircraft systems.
