Description of TRI-TAC Equipment Acquisition Program.
Abstract
This brief review of the TRI-TAC equipment development and acquisition programs has described the function, purpose and the nature of the various types of tactical communications equipment that comprise this joint service communications program. In addition, information on the development status and expected Army requirements for each piece of TRI-TAC equipment has been provided. There are many ways in which this equipment may be integrated to meet the need of each Service. This integration of TRI-TAC hardware into the broad range of tactical communications equipment already fielded by the Army or in various stages of development must be done in the context of continually evolving Army requirements. At the same time, due consideration must be paid to the vagaries and exigences associated with such a large scale complex and sophisticated hardware development program. The concept to accomplish this overall systems integration remains to be established. It is intended that distribution of this document will serve to familarize users, developers and other interested parties with the hardware elements that comprise the TRI-TAC program and to stimulate dialog as to how these elements can best be used by the Army in the 1980's and 90's
