The Joint Effects Tactical Targeting System (JETTS) will provide automated software tools to enable British Army operational and tactical headquarters to co-ordinate and synchronize surveillance systems (sensors) and weapon and other effectors (shooters).  It will coordinate, integrate and synchronise the Land Battlespace of the future. It will deliver targeting information to the Land Component Commander through Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition and Reconnaissance (ISTAR) assets.  JETTS is a major step towards land digitisation and Network Enabled Capability (NEC), forming an integral element of the future battlespace in conjunction with systems such as BOWMAN and the Future Rapid Effects System (FRES).

The aim is to improve the operational capability in the battlespace by enhancing the combat effects of tempo, simultaneity, surprise, tactical agility, lethality and survivability, all whilst reducing fratricide.  The main benefits are:

Automated Battle Command\system

Highly adaptable communication interfaces

Determine where assets are and the state of readiness

Reduce the risk of fratricide
