The ubiquitous information technology has made systems intelligent and connectable, and has consequently caused the paradigm of military operation to change from platform-centric operation to network-centric operation. Recently, the United States, United Kingdom, NATO, and Australia developed the concept of network-centric operation to ensure victory by achieving information superiority under a complex and changeable security environment. Such concept must contain a network-based force to maximize the operation effectiveness and the efficiency of the national defense budget. To realize such concept, the aforementioned countries/ organizations are focusing on force construction and operation using their access to capabilities- based planning and enterprise architecture. For this research, the access status of each country to strategy changes, the NCW approach, the concept of capability, and the capabilities-based planning process was investigated as a case of capability application. Based on the results of this research, a development direction for the ROK NCW was proposed.
