HMS is an Acquisition Category (ACAT) ID Program that encompasses specific requirements to support the US Army, US Air Force, US Navy, US Marine Corps and the Special Operations Command (SOCOM) communication needs. HMS provides voice and data communications to the tactical edge/most disadvantaged Warfighter with an on the move, at the halt, and stationary Line of Sight (LOS)/ Beyond Line of Sight (BLOS) capability for both dismounted personnel and platforms. HMS radios are software re-programmable, networkable multi-mode system (of systems) capable of simultaneous voice, data and video communications.
