Battle Force Tactical Network (BFTN)

Abstract

Overall program efforts include investigation of emerging technologies through study, development and associated testing for feasibility of program insertion. The BFTN is the Navy's program of record for high-frequency internet protocol (HFIP) and Ultra High Frequency (UHF) Line of Sight (LOS) subnet relay (SNR) communications. BFTN is the only Allied/Coalition option, providing command and control in a non-satellite communications (SATCOM) or SATCOM-denied environment and serves as a primary backup for SIPRNET (Secret Internet Protocol Router Network) in the absence of SATCOM.
