Comments on: Prez’s New Top-Secret Net http://defensetech.org/2007/02/09/prezs-new-top-secret-net/ The Future of the Military, Law Enforcement and National Security Fri, 25 May 2012 14:54:22 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Retired in 1994 http://defensetech.org/2007/02/09/prezs-new-top-secret-net/#comment-265452 Retired in 1994 Fri, 30 Mar 2012 21:05:01 +0000 http://deftech.usmilblog.com/?p=3480#comment-265452 Just before I retired I took part on a PAT that was tasked with brainstorming and designing a new comm system for AF1, 2, and all the VIP birds. We designed a system that would have met the current and future black and red voice data, voice, and video needs. The group was made up of approximately 15 communicators who were extremely experienced in what the system in use at that time was lacking, as well as what was in the works for projects out to the ten year mark. The system we came up with would allow worldwide, point to point video, audio, and data comm between all/any vip birds and troops deployed on the front lines. The intent was for the highest level to be able to interface directly with the teams who were deployed, thereby eliminating the possibility of layers of BS to be injected into the true status of any mission. President C. was provided our recommendations and like everything he put his hands on, screwed the pooch enough where they are now having to redo the entire network. He did the same thing with the "Beast", but I'll keep that to myself! Sometimes, spending that little bit more will result in savings of millions overall. President C. and President O, just don't get it!!! Just before I retired I took part on a PAT that was tasked with brainstorming and designing a new comm system for AF1, 2, and all the VIP birds.

Microsoft style multimedia multi task direct on time communications applied to national security activities. on time video conferencing sealed exclusively from those who don't need to know and those who do need to know. a kind of modern day milnet. on Feb 6th , young President Bush visited Micron corporation in Virginia. like his Dad ; who learned to use the PC ; young Bush is kind of a techie. it wouldn't be unreasonable for DISA to recruit vast forces of college computer sci students to master cyber and counter cyber attacks. hopefully ; DISA will run mock trials on the systems before , they are absolutely relied upon. some find the best test bed is the client. preferably ; the test bed or beta test will be debugged before the alpha test is applied. always have alternate back up systems for communications. Gulf War I ; Saddam was stare'n at a blank war room screen. what a time for your just in time strategic viewing system to crap out. decades ago ; the enemy could decypher the sounds ( harmonics ) of our card punch machines to correlate with the hollirinth code of our key punch cards. the sounds of the printer activity yielded clues. maybe ; the unique power surge modulations and the sounds of the tape drives and operator consoles tipped off the enemy of the old days. in Get Smart ; Maxwell and th Chief had to communicate in the cone of silence. it was a direct link immune from eases droppers. authorized personnel will not be taking the guts of the top secret net home to work on or to update their intensive resumes. the network should be treated strictly much like the seriousness of The Manhattan Project. if you can think it ; you can do it. they had a dedicated secure secret net to communicate info in real time. they are probably working on an up grade. something with a higher safe crypto secure comm system. the 64 bit streaming is part of the high speed multi stream system interoptibilty.

I am no longer surprised. Ben Rich’s book about the Skunk Works has pages and pages on how the government sets out to be as inefficient as possible. I am no longer surprised.

Avionics has always cost more than the platform. I hope the industry is happy. Too much 24, fantasies of sitting with fancy computers and making decisions in real time.
