Naval Operations Concept - Defense Technical Information Center

for developing Service-specific operational concepts and experimenting
within core competencies, supporting joint concept development with
Service experimentation, providing feedback from the field, supporting
joint experimentation, joint testing and evaluation, and overseeing integration
of validated joint DCRs” (DOTMLPF change recommendations). 35
NOC 10 provides the overarching concept that informs naval participation
in joint concept development and experimentation. The material
contained in NOC 10 is to be used in two mutually informative ways.
First, it will guide how the Naval Service organizes, deploys, and employs
current and programmed capabilities to accomplish near-term (inside the
FYDP) implementation of A Cooperative Strategy for 21 st Century Seapower
(CS-21). Second, it will guide our participation in the JOpsC development
process, experimentation, and assessment to support long-term
(beyond the FYDP) joint capability development. Both of these applications
will require development of supporting concepts of operation (CONOPS),
whereby approved concepts are applied against likely scenarios in order
to inform both near-term and long-term DOTMLPF changes.
