National Fire Control Symposium

The National Fire Control Symposium (NFCS) is a tri-service & Industry supported event that will take place in on 9-12 February 2015 in El Segundo, CA. After taking a hiatus for two years due to restrictions on government attendance, NFCS is back in 2015 for its 22nd event with strong tri-service support and industry sponsors Raytheon Company, The Boeing Company, and Lockheed Martin Corporation.

The NFCS focuses on current warfighter issues related to integrated fire control, including homeland defense, and challenges applicable for all military services, research and development centers and the defense industry. The Symposium addresses the application and integration of sensing, information interoperability, command and control and weapons used for attacking difficult targets characterized as concealed, time-critical, urban, deeply buried or electronic. In recognition of the heightened threat, emphasis will be placed upon the extension of DoD investments into supporting homeland defense, including opportunities for direct support of CONUS operations. Conducted in a classified environment, the NFCS is the only dynamic forum for discussing the entire kill chain. Technical content includes the presentation, demonstration, discussion, and sharing of advanced concepts required for: force management and pre-mission planning; locating, identifying, targeting, and attacking air/sea/ground targets; performing post-attack evaluations, as well as the integration, testing, tactics and training required to maintain our tactical advantage.

The NFCS

Is the only tri-service supported symposium concentrated on combat fire control in a classified environment.
Brings together members of acquisition [including research and development, and science and technology], operations, and intelligence – the decision makers, researchers, developers, implementers, and users.
Is the premier conference for real-world fire control topics for the warfighter and engineer, and attracts the decision makers in this arena.
