Welcome!
Welcome to the Citizendium! We hope you will contribute boldly and well. Here are pointers for a quick start. You'll probably want to know how to get started as an author.

Under the computers/network hat, I was one of the first CSSIs in 1993.
Lots of military things of interest, blurring into intelligence (still military workgroup) and on into law.
Random list of things you might like to review/extend:
- Special reconnaissance, controlling close support to ground forces, go-onto-location-in-space, go-onto-target, AN/MSQ-77*, forward air controller, precision-guided munition; there are lots of individual articles, of various lengths, on individual munitions and electronics (see AN-).
- Computer networking reference models, Internet Protocol Suite, Domain Name System (and subarticles), anycasting, Internet Protocol, Internet Protocol version 4, Internet Protocol version 6 (and subarticles)
- Eduction, interrogation, elicitation, human-source intelligence, debriefing; there are also a developing series of country- and time-specific areas
When you look for a piece of military electronics, AN/XXX-99, for indexing reasons, the article will be XXX-99. I did a little trickery to make it appear AN/MSQ-77.
