OPERATIONAL ADVANTAGES

This system contributes to equipment standardization efforts, which support interoperability, as several weapon systems spare parts can be used interchangeably with others.

A national and NATO wide knowledge of all available military assets and resources allows for :

- rationalisation of inventory management by sharing resources spare parts and maintenance activities;

- the minimum distribution of essential spare parts during the deployment of forces in a theatre of operation.

- cross service supply between the military branches

- sharing of supply support between nations

An accurate description of the items permits users to readily find equipment, which meets requirements and accomplish replenishment without delay.

The use of a common language simplifies the technical dialogue between users. Maximum use of coded data allows language independent communications.

The use of computer technology allows the recording, processing, and transmitting of identification and management data through easily accessible databases.

Drawbacks:

US being mighty military power it tactically controls Europe through NATO .

NATO alliance can make military bases which is expensive to maintain .

NATO alliance completely depends on US military in case if any war threat happens . ...

Many NATO alliance are not able to pay their debts .
