IFF Mode 5
Abstract
Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) Mode 5 devices provide authentication and encryption/decryption services to IFF Mode 5 host equipment. These encryption devices operate within military aircraft, fixed, and transportable ground stations when connected to an interrogator and/or transponder. The Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) Mode 5 crypto models KIV-77 and KIV-78 require permanent modification. The modification of these devices are required to address produce-ability and algorithm re-programmability mandated by the National Security Agency (NSA) and the 2019 Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Notice (CJCSN) 6510.
