The Pentagon is establishing an office tasked with aligning and accelerating joint all-domain command and control, a multibillion-dollar effort meant to tie together all components of the U.S. military, from sensor to shooter.
The acquisition, integration and interoperability office will first look “at how we’re going to integrate, truly get JADC2 talking across the department,” according to Chris O’Donnell, deputy assistant secretary of defense for platform and weapon portfolio management.

..."Project Convergence shows JADC2 alignment, leaders from 3 services say
Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. CQ Brown in June met with fellow leaders from the Army, Navy, Marine Corps and Space Force to assess JADC2 common ground and discuss advancements. The Air Force at the time said the summit underlined how seriously the Defense Department is taking cooperation.
The new office will be housed under the secretary of defense. The Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office, which reached full operations in June, is also working on JADC2 data integration. The CDAO reports directly to the deputy secretary of defense, Kathleen Hicks.
O’Donnell on Wednesday said the military has “done an amazing job” addressing how critical information will be shuttled back and forth to all corners of the military, and how that information, once received, will be used to fight more effectively.
“I would never say the services are too siloed in their approach. The services are doing exactly what they need to support service needs,” he said. “They’re all talking to each other.”

Hmm . . . a consolidation of branches and troops through a central command? What could go wrong! So then what . . . there are two branches of military - on world and off world, or what?
There is already a lot more blurring of lines between and among the branches, than there use to be. Seems that folks concerned about any possibility of martial law, ever, would have some thoughts about " joint all-domain command and control".
