Bomber Tactical Data Link

Abstract

The TDL will provide low latency, jam-resistant situation awareness and command/control needed to support in-theater operations/missions via a line-of-sight (LOS) Link 16 capability. The program will consist of integrating an existing off-the-shelf Link 16 terminal into the B-52. This will include Group A wiring, rack and antennae and the Group B terminal, blanking unit and notch filter LRUs. The terminals will be installed inside the fuselage of the aircraft and external antennas will be mounted on the fuselage. The TDL terminal and LOS capability will be integrated with the rest of the CONECT subsystem.
