The second annual Gulf C4ISR conference in Abu Dhabi gave 333 of the world's defense contractors a glimpse into the United Arab Emirates' vision for its military intelligence future. Just as important, it gave U.A.E. officials insight into the lessons the country's western allies have learned from the 1991 Persian Gulf War through the wars Iraq and Afghanistan. Ben Iannotta attended the conference and filed these reports. Old photos of sheiks in Mirages and F-16s adorn the marble hallways of the Armed Forces Officers Club and Hotel, the venue for the Gulf C4ISR conference. At the military's General Headquarters in downtown Abu Dhabi, a newer trend is playing out. The U.A.E. is attempting to knit its fractious military networks into a seamless, modern network so the country's commanders can apply its warplanes and troops faster and more effectively.
