The Army Battle Command System (ABCS) is a digital Command, Control, Communications, Computers and Intelligence (C4I) system for the US Army.
Army Battle Command System (ABCS) Version 6.4 is an integrated suite that allows troops to obtain an automated view of friendly activity and supply movement; plan fires, receive situation and intelligence reports, view the airspace and receive automatically disseminated weather reports.
Similar to how those using the internet have no need to know the location of the network they connect to, ABCS is intended to provide the same capability.
The system also provides up-to-date information on a map-based display.
This creates a risk of bad data and database errors in such scenarios.
