The GSS system would allow the U.S. military to strike quickly and remain engaged for increased periods of time while additional forces are moved to the area of concern. Naval and air investments are critical

The increased lethality and complexity of modern warfare makes a requirement to be able to fight in a multi-threat joint environment to achieve desired effects in all domains and at all levels. The airpower, which encompasses elements operating in the Air, Maritime, Land and Cyber domains as well as Space, is one of the strongest drivers for domain integration. The airpower is the most capable means, complying to and fitted with the requirements to be a successful one in the modern Network-Centric

that hasn’t been updated in the last couple of years. This is especially handy when looking at redeveloping sites, since there is often not much original design information available from the seller or local jurisdictions. The two images below are aerial shots taken above the same site. The image on the left is from Google Earth, and the image on the right is from a drone with a 12 MP camera. It is much easier to spot the true current condition of the lot from the drone image, and from that we can
