Rockwell Collins has implemented Automatic Dependent Surveillance – Broadcast (ADS-B) Out software on three Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) aircraft platforms, the company announced on 6 November.
The software has been integrated on NAVAIR C-2A, E-2C and P-3C aircraft.
The installation of the certified software brings these aircraft into compliance with the upcoming ADS-B Out mandates required by the end of 2019.
The initial software has undergone flight testing and was confirmed production-ready without any adjustments required.
This integration and implementation paves the way for other platform certifications with similar transponder types such as the C-130 and C-5.
The airborne three-domain, the two ground-based and the ¼ ATR OpenVPX-based cross-domain systems were engineered to provide real-time security across multi-domain operations.
DARPA’s Mission-Integrated Network Control (MINC) programme was set up to develop an autonomous tactical network and enable critical data flow in contested environments.
Why space is an essential part of modern military capabilities
Defence-secure mixed reality headsets can save hours, or even weeks, of travel time to fix defunct equipment or get subject experts effectively “on-site” where they are needed.
The Joint Counter Radio-Controlled Improvised Explosive Device Electronic Warfare (JCREW) counter-improvised explosive device (C-IED) and Drone Restricted Access Using Known Electromagnetic Warfare (DRAKE) counter-UAS (CUAS) systems are mounted and dismounted RF jammers.
