A logistic systems to support deployed platforms that includes a reporting
system located within deployed assets, an over-the-horizon (OTH)
communication system, an information distribution node, a logistics
control system, and a servicing activity. The reporting system located
within deployable assets monitors and reports deployed asset status
information using the OTH communication system. Thus, the reporting
system passes deployed asset status information to the logistics
controller via the information distribution node. The logistics
controller receives deployed asset status information and allocates the
necessary resources to service the deployed asset based on received
deployed asset status information. This allocation of resources is
coordinated at the servicing activity or service depot in communication
with the logistics controller prior to the arrival of the deployed asset
saving valuable time.
