The defense interoperability is gaining more and more importance as we experience the rapid progress in information technology. Problems pertaining to the acquisition of military systems are that the requirements for interoperability are not clearly defined. Therefore, it is very difficult to make an objective judgement as to whether the acquired military systems meet the interoperability requirements. In order to resolve the ambiguity of the interoperability requirements, the components of existing interoperability definitions are reorganized into a good structure based on the ontology. Based on this structure, this paper proposes a table of key elements for interoperability requirement. This table is then used to analyze the interoperability plans for ROK military systems acquisition. Based on the results of this analysis, some suggestions are proposed for improvement of the interoperability requirements.
