Joint DoD · evaluator's starting point

Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, Space Force and joint missions have distinct operational doctrine and acquisition portfolios. Review the branch-by-branch WFF / program-office crosswalk before choosing an exercise. Candidate offices are not sponsors; no government integration or authorization is assumed.

Army ground-vehicle example · four-click rehearsal

This page's interactive example focuses on a notional Army vehicle and fires workflow; it does not define the whole ATLAS platform. Review an illustrative crew report, degrade a link and rehearse the human approval handoff. Nothing on this page is transmitted to a government system.

The ±12 m, ±20 m, and ±23 m figures are exercise presets: soldier ±60 m, sight ±25 m, drone ±15 m, radar ±40 m. They are not a microphone measurement and they are not a radio-dongle measurement.

PAE LEAVE-BEHINDS · ONE PAGE PER OFFICE · SAME NUMBERS AS THIS PAGE

Every office in the room gets one page and one ask

Each one-pager leads with that office's own problem and programs, then the ask written in this registry. The meters on them are the exercise presets on this page: one soldier ±60 m, all sources near ±12 m, drone jammed near ±20 m, jammed and congested near ±23 m. Those meters are not microphone or dongle measurements. Open one and print it to PDF. Orientation: who owns which beat →

THE RAG ASSISTANT · OPEN ONLY IF THEY ASK HOW ANSWERS ARE SOURCED

Shorter distance between a question and a sourced answer

The AI on this platform exists to get your staff from question to sourced answer faster. It is retrieval-augmented generation: each answer is assembled from pages retrieved out of the platform's intel corpus — cached intelligence files, ingested briefings, published sources — and the underlying files are one click away, so any answer can be checked against its source. The corpus is the same one the Intelligence Synthesis Engine reads, and it is what you can audit.

Where the corpus stands today, honestly: it is a cached, curated set of intelligence files (the live auto-research scheduler is currently off; pay-per-use lanes are gated). The platform carries two ingestion paths that feed it when enabled — an automated researcher that pulls material in from the wild, and a loopback that digests the operator's own briefings and alerts back in as institutional memory, clearly labeled and never treated as a primary source.

Guardrails we run on it: a probabilistic RAG drift gate (baseline eval, rolling drift detection, retrieval-faithfulness probes), hash-chained audit of what the AI produced, an AI SBOM, and runtime integrity checks. These are features of the platform — not certifications, and we claim no authority to operate.

BRIEF CHEATSHEET

TRAINING SCENARIO · ONE FIGHT · 9 STEPS

UNCLASSIFIED // FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY

Reusable unclassified ATLAS demonstration · ISS LLC / Dr. Terry Flood / CAGE 9VKK3

OPENING (30 sec)

"One fight, one screen. TF DAGGER, hostile UAS swarm bearing 270, 22km. PTDS-1 has it. ALPHA-1 through 8 are airborne, BRAVO-6 is C-RAM, CHARLIE-1 is on shore, LOG-1 is the tail. I'm going to walk you the kill chain end to end — sensor to shooter to BDA — in nine steps."

THE 9 STEPS · CLICK EACH

1. DETECT — Swarm C2

"PTDS-1 picks up 4 hostile UAS. ALPHA-1..8 receive cue at H+0."

2. CLASSIFY — CRAM Dashboard

"BRAVO-6 confirms hostile UAS, declares THREATCON RED at H+1."

3. FUSE — DoD Common Op Picture

"All four domains on one screen. Land/air/sea/cyber. No swivel-chair."

4. EXTEND — Maritime Domain

"CHARLIE-1 sees the surface threat. AIS + radar + visual cross-cue."

5. PRIORITIZE — Commander Dashboard

"Critical/High/Med/Low live counts. Commander sees the queue."

6. ASSESS — DIME-PMESII

"Operational Environment overlay. Diplomatic / Info / Mil / Econ options."

7. LOCATE — Peer Geolocation

"GPS-denied. Multi-node TDOA. Covariance ellipse on the map."

8. DECIDE — Intel Fusion

"AI never authors lethal numbers. Human-in-loop for every kinetic call."

9. ACT + BDA — Brief Runbook (full script)

"LOG-1 closes the loop. BDA back to PTDS-1. One fight, one screen."

Link 16 / J-Series / COMSEC posture (plain English)

This Week · What's Done / In Flight / On Deck

Internal pursuit notes — confirm current status and permissions before sharing with external evaluators.

IF ASKED: LINK 16 / COMSEC — PLAIN ENGLISH

If you only remember one line:
"We don’t transmit on Link 16, and we don’t hold the secret keys. We read a translated unclassified copy that the unit’s government-owned translator box hands us."

If pressed for more:
• Link 16 is the military’s classified group-chat for jets, ships, ground — you need an encrypted radio (MIDS) and the day’s secret keys to talk on it. We have neither. We don’t need either.
• The unit’s person who safeguards those keys (the COMSEC custodian) keeps that job. We change nothing about their security setup.
• The unit also has a government-owned translator box that copies Link 16 messages to the unclassified side. We read from that box. We never write back into the secret side.
• What we add: we mix those tracks with our 9,500+ aircraft and 12,000+ ship feeds onto one map and give the commander a clean picture with a decision queue.
• If the translator goes dark we keep running on commercial feeds and clearly label the Link 16 picture as stale. No silent failures.

Why it matters to them: "Prototype integration can be demonstrated without access to cryptographic keys; operational deployment still requires agency approval, interface validation, and applicable security authorization."

HARD RULES — SAY THESE

• "No FedRAMP, no IL-5, no CAC, no SIPRNET, no FIPS, no ATO — this is unclas commercial."
• "AI never authors ballistic numbers. Lethal calls are human-in-loop."
• "Grounded on our in-house intel engine — the live RAG corpus (verify current corpus inventory), fed by 30+ purpose-built ingest adapters (CIA Factbook 261 countries, NOAA/USGS hazards, CISA KEV cyber, AISStream maritime, DoD DSIP, NSF/DARPA pipelines, USAspending, GDELT, drone-intel, more). Every claim is [GREEN]/[AMBER]/[RED] tagged with verbatim citations — this is the anti-hallucination floor."
• "CAGE 9VKK3."

CLOSING (15 sec)

"That's the kill chain. One screen, nine steps, every domain. Vendor-locked battle-management software gives you a map; we give you the fight. Cost? A fraction of a prime program. Standards? Open. Schedule? Today. Let me know what you want to drill into."
