========

Digital Fire Control Systems must be qualified to guarantee a sufficient level of interoperability. Upon necessary Information Assurance objectives, Dependability of digital fire control systems (DFCS) is the most critical objective to reach, in order to ensure a fast, constant, reliable and safe Fire Support service to maneuver units.

For now and the purpose of indirect kinetic fire support, and in accordance with STANAG-2245 and STANAG-2432 (AArtyP-03), be a Full or Associated ASCA Member is the stipulated way for an Affiliate to ensure such an aim. No fees are required; the main requirement is to demonstrate an effective interoperability with DFCSs of the Community, coached by one of the Full Member.

After be sponsored, nation implements ASCA-012 CTIDP, coached by its sponsoring nation, and demonstrates interoperability with at least two Full ASCA Members.

  • Full Members are committed to participate to all ASCA meetings and actively contribute to the Standard development;
  • Associated Members maintain their interoperability with Community DFCS and update their status and ASCA activities; this status is comparable to a simple user of the interface.
