KhanBMS is organized into five recursive tiers. Each tier commands exactly ten of the next. The result is a kill-web that scales linearly with hardware while keeping the operator's cognitive load constant.
The smallest indivisible combat unit. In KhanBMS this is a fireteam of unmanned assets: a CCA pair, a quadcopter swarm element, or a robotic ground squad. Each Arban runs the full decision stack on-board and is authoritative for its own kill-chain inside doctrine.
Ten Arbans synchronized into a single tactical effect. The Zuun layer composes formations dynamically: SEAD packages, screening lines, logistics convoys. Pilots and operators command at this tier.
Synchronizes battalion-scale unmanned operations across multiple Zuuns. Manages cross-cueing between sensor and shooter assets, deconflicts airspace, and allocates effectors against the joint target list.
Operational-level command of an autonomous division. The Tumen integrates kinetic, EW, cyber and information effects into a campaign tempo. Built to fight through degraded comms via cached doctrinal intent.
The only tier where intent originates. Khan operators set commander's intent, rules of engagement, and mission parameters. Everything below is bounded autonomy executing within those constraints. The human remains in command — not in the loop.
