Improved Data Modem (IDM)

Abstract

The Improved Data Modem (IDM) is the common solution for digitizing Army Aviation. It performs as an internet controller and gateway to Tactical internet (TI) and Fire Support (FS) internet for Army Aviation. The IDM provides radio connectivity to the ARC-201D/231, ARC-186, ARC-164 and the Blue Force Tracker (BFT) MT-2011 and AVX-06/203 transceivers. Funds are required to continue development of an Open Systems Architecture (OSA) and Joint Battle Command -Platform (Aviation) (JBC-P(A)) solution compatible with the AH-64D, CH-47F, HH/UH-60M, OH-58D. This effort provides the foundation to develop and qualify a new hardware architecture to host IDM and Army Common Operating Environment applications to ensure interoperability on the future digital battlefield.
