SPACE CONTROL

Abstract

Tactical Data Terminals (Space), a Program Office assigned to the PEO for Intelligence, Electronic Warfare, and Sensors (PEO IEW&S) is developing a mobile, ground-based, tactically-centric space information superiority capability to meet Joint Requirements and validated Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC) capability gaps. The system is a forward-deployed platform to generate, receive, monitor, analyze and store satellite communications in direct support of the ground force Commander. The system is centered on a Modular and Open System Approach (MOSA) that will enhance (less time, less cost) future upgrades to meet emerging space capabilities. System mobility (using government-off-the-shelf (GOTS) tactical vehicles such as the potential Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV) or the Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP)) will enable the system to move to positions of geographical advantage to establish and maintain assured space data access and information superiority in support of Brigade tactical operations.
