Network Centric Communications Pod (NCCP)
NCCP has been developed to enhance long-range reporting and communications. Integration is in progress on a wing-mounted networked communications pod that will provide a medium-altitude aerial gateway for airborne and ground communications networks systems. NCCP will consist of a best of breed mix of Joint Tactical Radio System (JTRS) software defined radios, tactical data links, and a Link 16 system.
Features/Benefits:
- Delivers persistent communications coverage
- Provides range extension for aerial/ground networks
- Bridges JTRS and other tactical waveforms
- Provides full participation on Link 16 network
- Digitally connects tactical edge users to RPA sensor information
- Quick-reaction capable
