Communication Systems

Abstract

Communication Systems consists of software and hardware development, test, and certifications necessary to field systems and capabilities for combat with a joint force including Link 16 Transmit and tactical Mode 5 Identify Friend or Foe (IFF) Challenge and Reply. Link 16 Transmit will be accomplished via an Open System Architecture (OSA) integrated with F-22 legacy avionics and enable tactical data sharing between both 5th generation and 4th generation aircraft. The OSA implementation will provide a pathway to more competitive and open F-22 modernization. Mode 5 IFF is a Joint Requirements Oversight Council-mandated Blue Force identification capability that improves Raptor survivability and reduces fratricide risk DoD-wide. This capability brings significantly enhanced combat identification in both quality and security.
