Downsized DoD Budget for C4ISR ForcesDownsized DoD Budget for C4ISR Forces Technology Developers to Consolidate Advances PR Newswire MOUNTAIN VIEW, California, Oct. 31, 2013 -- Incremental upgrades to existing programs seek to integrate technology improvements faster and at a lower cost Military force structure reductions will result in reduced spending by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) for command, control, communications, computers, intelligence surveillance and reconnaissance (C4ISR). Priority funding will go toward meeting modifications and product improvements that increase sensor sensitivity and collaboration. As a result, a greater focus on computing, networking and collaboration tools based on commercial off-the- shelf (COTS) technology will emerge. New analysis from Frost & Sullivan's Aerospace and Defense (www.defense.frost.com) practice predicts the U.S. DoD C4ISR market will reach $41.42 billion in 2014 but will shrink to $35.20 billion in 2018.
