   Inside C2Core®: Command and Control for the Modern Battlefield

   Legacy tools and systems were not built for today’s operational pace. Modern command and control has to be. This is where C2Core® comes in. In this episode of Meet the Mission, we go inside C2Core®, a next‑generation command and control platform that is changing how the U.S. Air Force plans, executes, and adapts missions across domains. Host Candace Scarborough sits down with Robert Luster, C2 Core Air Product Manager, and Bob Sullivan, Director of C2 Systems, to talk through the following: How C2Core® simplifies complex Air Operations Center workflows. Details as to how strategy, mission planning, execution, and assessment come together in one unified system. How C2Core® helps reduce operator workload. Addresses the challenge of integrating legacy systems with modern ones to cut down on system sprawl and support faster, more informed decision‑making. The future for the product and what to expect next from C2Core®.
