Blue Force Tracking (BFT)

Abstract

BFT is a family of devices used to remotely track and monitor SOF unit personnel. The capability enhances C2, threat warning, force protection, situational awareness, combat search and rescue, counter-fratricide, and battlefield visualization. This capability is unique to SOF because it requires the devices to be lightweight, portable, secure with a Low Probability of Intercept/Low Probability of Detection.
