Tactical Communications & Data Links

Tactical comms is the nervous system of modern joint operations: Link 16 and emerging Link 22, MUOS and INMARSAT SATCOM, HF/VHF/UHF software-defined radios, VMF, LTE-based mesh comms, ground-to-air data links for UAS, and the crypto / key-management infrastructure that secures them. The hardware sits on fighters, AEW&C, MPA, tankers, rotary assets, ships and forward-operating bases. Interoperability with US, NATO and GCC-peer partners drives specification — Saudi, UAE, Qatar, Kuwait and Bahrain all operate Link 16 extensively.
