In 2000, U.S.-CREST completed a quadripartite project on coalition military operations. Recognizing the challenges as well as opportunities that the incorporation of rapidly moving information technologies into military systems present for coalition operations, U.S.-CREST solicited the participation of FRS (France), SWP (Germany), and RUSI (UK) in a study designed to examine how their countries can better cooperate to harness information technologies and enhance coalition cohesiveness.
U.S. DOD, and the defense ministries in France, Germany, and the United Kingdom, all agreed to participate in the study in an advisory capacity.
In April 2000, the project findings and recommendations were briefed to the biannual five power meeting of National Armament Directors.
