(*) - A capability that, when added to and employed by a combat force, significantly increases the combat potential of that force and thus enhances the probability of successful mission accomplishment.
You're preaching to the choir. Our military is so networked that just about every system is a force multiplier. All our weapon systems can both act independently and as a whole. The SSGN is a prime example, on its own it can unlease massive distruction on an enemy but as part of an overall strike force it can "knock down the door" for the fixed wing guys.
