Research and development of mosaic warfare

At present, the anti intervention / regional denial capabilities of the world powers are increasing, and the traditional combat forces of the US military are declining. Therefore, the US military has put forward a new combat concept-Mosaic war. In this paper, the concept of mosaic warfare is interpreted from the perspectives of connotation boundary, force organization, architecture composition, force generation and combat network, and a combat loop structure is proposed based on OODA loop. In order to solve the problems of the low project priority, achievement conversion rate to be verified and existing system establishment difficult to break, DARPA has started a series of projects and technical research, its key technologies mainly include UAV cluster technology, electronic countermeasure technology, distributed man-machine cooperation technology, flexible and autonomous communication network technology, simulation experiment analysis and combat effectiveness evaluation technology, and its relevant projects mainly include ofFSET, ACK, DBM, CASCADE, C2E, DyNAMO, SoSITE, and so on. Finally, it effectively promotes mosaic warfare to flexibly reorganize all kinds of combat function units, and forms highly cooperative, autonomous and controllable combat kill network, in order to deal with the threats in great power competition.
