Joint Airborne Networking -Tactical Edge (JAN-TE)

Abstract

Joint Airborne Networking - Tactical Edge (JAN-TE) will operate on JTRS airborne sets to provide a networked tactical communications capability for tactical aircraft. JAN-TE will provide increased throughput, highly responsive connectivity, and ad hoc mobile networking for fighters engaged in air operations. This networking waveform is uniquely designed and engineered for highly maneuverable, fast moving aircraft for rapidly establishing networks to share high value data communications. USD(AT&L) directed that the development of the JAN-TE waveform be discontinued after Critical Design Review in October 2008, but allowed the Navy and/or Air Force to continue funding its development independently, if desired. In FY2011, the Navy began to budget and execute funding for continuation of JAN-TE's development.
