Abstract: The decision-making process starts with the receipt of the mission and identification of the situation in the area of operations, culminating with the decision of course of action that leads to achieving the end state. In crisis situations, when time is limited, naval tactical data system components are becoming vital tools which contribute decisively to the decision-making in a short time by providing a complete picture of the area of operations. By centralizing in the Combat Information Center (C.I.C.), information provided by the ship's sensors or those received from ships in naval group based on naval tactical data systems is ready for rational justification of the commander decision.
The main characteristics of the naval tactical data systems, such as the flow of information that can be perpetuated through automated data systems, display of tactical information required for command and control process of the trust, their high reliability, as well as the ability to transmit information in higher safety conditions, lead to an optimization of the command and control process by reducing the time of decision-making and prosessing in almost real time of execution orders ways and maneuvers by the forces participating in military actions.

HISTORY OF THE NAVAL TACTICAL DATA SYSTEMS
Towards the end of World War II, the U.S. Navy's objectives were enemy fighters, especially the kamikaze. The distances from which destroyer radar could detect a kamikaze aircraft vary greatly depending on the altitude at which they fly. There were a few situations where the aircraft kamikaze raids from Okinawa were not detected. Inefficient use of surface radar, which had relatively short distance detection, against enemy raids carried out at low height led the U.S. Navy to the layout of early warning ships over the most likely enemy of directions for a time warning. The U.S. Navy also developed early warning aircraft radar that could detect at greater distances the aircrafts flying at low altitudes.
The radar would have been most valuable in equipment if it had not been for its limitations. At that time, it was able to furnish information about the location of an aircraft, in terms of azimuth and distance, but would have been much more useful if radars had had the possibility...
