View original image[Asia Economy Yang Nak-gyu, Military Specialist Reporter] The Tactical Command Information System (ATCIS), which recommends the optimal attack methods to military commanders, is starting its second phase of mass production.
On the 23rd, the Defense Acquisition Program Administration announced the commencement of the performance-enhanced ATCIS second mass production project, investing 150.4 billion KRW, with deployment scheduled from this month until October 2023. The second batch of ATCIS units will be deployed to two frontline corps, the Marine Corps Command, and the Army Mobilization Forces Command. Previously, the first batch was introduced to some frontline army corps from December 2018 through June of this year.
Upon completion of the second mass production, the military expects that 75% of the ground forces, including major regional corps and mobile corps, will be replaced with the new system, significantly enhancing ground force operational capabilities. The most notable feature of the second batch is the software that automatically recommends the optimal attack methods to commanders. It is an advanced system that integrates in real-time with surveillance, decision-making, and strike systems to assist commanders in making optimal commands.
Additionally, the software functions have been improved to reflect the latest military manuals and doctrines, accelerating commanders' decision-making support. A video conferencing system connecting corps and divisions, as well as divisions and regiments, has been installed, and the functionality to share operational situations with nearby units has been enhanced. Designed as a web-based system, it operates similarly to internet access, allowing the system to be run while connected to a portal.
