Abstract

The BLOS C2 initiative was designed to support a CENTCOM Capability Gap and CONPLAN to satisfy a NAVCENT force protection threat. AF A2Q offered the BLOS C2 architecture as the first instantiation of its RAIN architecture. AF A3/5 coordinated with USD AT&L. Twelve month in-theater delivery. The BLOS C2 architecture leverages existing air and ground platforms with software modified CDL radios to include ROVER. As a result of the software modification (NET-T), this family of CDL radios will establish a battlefield Internet like capability with Type I and AES encryption. This program is in Budget Activity 7, Operational System Development because this budget activity includes development efforts to upgrade systems that have been fielded or have received approval for full rate production and anticipate production funding in the current or subsequent fiscal year
