CBRN-CADS — Combat Decision Support — is the system we ship for battalion-level CBRN response. It is described publicly as the Korean equivalent of NATO JWARN. This note unpacks the comparison precisely: where the alignment is real, where the deviation is intentional, and what the OODA-33× compression number means in operational terms.
What JWARN is
The NATO Joint Warning and Reporting Network (JWARN) is a CBRN warning and reporting capability developed for allied land forces. It provides the canonical workflow from chemical/biological/radiological detection through hazard prediction to operational warning dissemination, governed by STANAG 2103.
What CBRN-CADS is
CBRN-CADS implements the same JWARN reporting backbone — STANAG 2103
chemical hazard control areas published as TEMPLATE_GEO/CONTROL_AREA
entities — and adds a decision support layer sized for battalion-
level operations:
- Schema-grounded tactical prompts that compress the OODA loop
- Pre-indicator integration with Korean theater telemetry
- Cross-pillar correlation with AVIX-AI Animal-class entities
The OODA-33× claim
We claim CBRN-CADS compresses the OODA loop by 33×. The number is not marketing — it is a measured improvement on a specific operational chain:
Reference baseline: human operator interpreting JWARN-format reports through to a published operational warning. Median observed latency on the reference baseline: ~8 minutes.
CBRN-CADS path: schema-grounded prompt path with structured doctrine reference, observed median latency: ~14 seconds.
8 min ÷ 14 s ≈ 33×. The number lives or dies on the assumption that
the CBRN-CADS path retains the doctrine fidelity of the human-in-the-
loop path. Our internal validation pack covers 40 reference scenarios
across STANAG 2103 chemical-hazard categories; an independent allied
walkthrough is the next phase.
Where we deviate from JWARN deliberately
- Decision surface: JWARN is a reporting backbone; CBRN-CADS adds a decision layer. The two are complementary, not substitutable.
- Catalog publishing: CBRN-CADS publishes through Lattice rather than maintaining a private message bus. Allied operators on the same catalog receive CBRN-CADS hazard zones alongside friendly assets.
Where alignment is exact
- Schema: STANAG 2103 chemical hazard control areas — identical geometry, identical disposition semantics.
- Reporting cadence: JWARN-style first-, second-, and third-warning cadence preserved.
This is the comparison we make publicly. The non-public extension layer is governed by partner agreements.
