The contracts periods run from December 2002 to January 2004 and June 2004 respectively. The Knowledge Integration Program enables transformation from a forces-based, materiel-centric posture to a mission-based, capability-centric asymmetric warfare Asymmetric warfare originally referred to war between two or more actors or groups whose relative power differs significantly. Contemporary military thinkers tend to broaden this to include asymmetry of strategy or tactics; today "asymmetric warfare" can describe a military focus. Under the Warfighter Support program, DRC DRC Democratic Republic of Congo DRC Down (Stage) Right Center DRC Director(ate) of Reserve Components DRC Disability Rights Commission (United Kingdom) will continue developing flexible asymmetric simulation technologies by expanding a suite of tools designed for operations other than war.
