DESCRIPTION
Functional Capabilities
Position, location, identification messages Relative and geodetic navigation Adaptable Host Interface Processing
Link 16 Capability for multi-service interoperability
Rockwell and BAE Systems have formed a limited liability company to
bring the advantages of full Multifunctional Information Distribution systems
(MIDS) commonality to a new, low cost Link 16 fighter terminal. This extension
of complementary technologies, coupled with proven expertise, has resulted
in a flexible open-architecture design - a design that provides the optimum
solution for Link 16 fighter applications.
The unparalleled situational awareness provided by Link 16 is now affordable
for fighters.
Primary benefits
Ask any operator who's flown with Link 16 on board. The operational
advantages provided by at-a-glance portrayal of targets, threats and friendly
forces, on an easy-to-understand, relative position display is the dynamic
edge every warfighter needs. Dynamic Link 16 capability lifts the fog of war,
increasing combat effectiveness while protecting forces from friendly fire.
But the benefits of Link 16 have never been in dispute by those close
to this program. What has been in dispute is affordability. The MIDS-FDL terminal
meets that challenge.
Designed to meet the affordability requirements of the user
The MIDS-FDL terminal fills the gap between operator needs and budget
constraints. Rockwell and BAE Systems have combined their technology and resources
to offer the lowest cost/risk program in the market.
Key elements of our MIDS-FDL design include maintaining MIDS open architecture
and adhering to commercial standards, IR&D focus for ensured future growth,
the avoidance of technical obsolescence and the implementation of production
improvements to lower costs.
