15 RAS-G nteroperability Planning Near Term (0-5 yrs) Standardized interfaces must be enforced between UGV platforms, payloads, controllers, and wireless communication devices. This will enable interoperability and modularity within systems and will lay the foundation for an affordable and sustainable lifecycle management model. Mid Term (5-10 yrs) UGVs must begin interfacing with authorized external systems and domains, such as other unmanned systems, manned ground vehicles, remote video terminals, and mobile/hand-held devices. This will enable a variety of new capabilities for Warfighters in different domains, as well as for UGVs themselves. This activity will be coordinated through the Army Common perating Environment and other joint activities. Additionally, joint and multinational interoperability with key allies must be established through the use of shared interface requirements. Far Term (10-20 yrs) The ability to interface with UGVs will be widely achievable by authorized external systems. Higher level interoperable message types will facilitate increases in system autonomy and distributed computing will be enabled via interoperable offloading of computing-intensive functions to appropriate systems. UGVs will be capable of sharing a variety of collected and processed information to a variety of consumers, which will enable enhanced situational awareness and decision making capability in both manned and unmanned consumers. 15
