Thailand announced a 10-year military buildup in 2005, allocating $6.6 billion to strengthen its armed forces. Thailand's Military has an annual operating budget of close to $2 Billion Dollars. At the heart of Thailand's drive to modernize its military is a world-class information system. This Command, Control, Communications and Intelligence (C3I) system provides the Royal Thai Supreme Command (RTSC) with the vital data and decision support it needs to act swiftly in times of military emergency, civil unrest or national disaster. In size, scope and impact, the new Thai system ranks among the most complex integration projects ever undertaken. Today, as a result of the firm's work, Thailand has the most advanced military communications in its region. Of the 43 countries in Asia, only Thailand, through its C3I system, has full interoperability with the U.S. Armed Forces.
