Force Element Terminal
Abstract
This Project is not a New Start. In FY 2020, PE 1203001F, Family of Advanced Beyond Line-of-Sight Terminals, Project 673040, Force Element Terminal efforts were transferred from PE 1203001F, PE Family of Advanced Beyond Line-of-Sight Terminals, Project 672490, Family of Advanced Beyond Line of Sight Terminals to provide program transparency. The Force Element Terminal (FET) program provides secure, protected, and survivable communications for the strategic and tactical warfighter through airborne based MILSATCOM terminals. The FET will provide the B-52, and RC-135 aircraft with worldwide nuclear and non-nuclear survivable, anti-jam, Low Probability of Detect (LPD)/Low Probability of Intercept (LPI), data and voice communications. The FET will be interoperable with Milstar, AEHF, Enhanced Polar Systems - Recapitalization (EPS-R), and Evolved Strategic SATCOM (ESS) Satellite constellations utilizing both Low Data Rate (LDR) and Extended Data Rate (XDR) waveforms. The FY 2020 funding request was reduced by $12.154 million to account for the availability of prior year execution balances.
