Cyber, space, and information warfare should no longer be considered optional components of ground fighting.
By combining specialists with ground soldiers, the objective has been to ensure the tactical use of airpower. Pilots are deployed to ground units to assist mid-level commanders, while skilled tactical air controllers are assigned to particular ground operators. Even the most minor ground units now have a stack of intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance drones. Special operations troops have taken things a step further by deploying assassination drones. The authority to utilize cyber and space capabilities continue to need very high levels of approval.
To close this gap, individuals with ground combat armaments and information warfare backgrounds should get training in information, cyber, and space. Multi-domain terminal effects controllers would concentrate their efforts on advising ground commanders, aiding with mission planning, and exercising control over activities. Additionally, they might seek assistance in using US Cyber or Space Command assets.
