Product OVERVIEW

Comtech Mobile Datacom Corporation's AVX-06 is designed for mobile tracking and messaging applications on fixed and rotary wing aircraft. The AVX-06 includes CMDC's newest and smallest member of its L-Band transceiver product line, the MTM-203 and joins the MT2011 which is currently fielded with the U.S. Army's Force XXI Battle Command Brigade and Below (FBCB2) Blue Force Tracking (BFT) program. CMDC's L-band transceivers play a key role in BFT's ability to provide global, near real-time situational awareness and C2 to/from air and ground platforms. CMDC's AVX-06 can also be modified to work in commercial aviation markets. The U.S. Army credits the BFT system with saving many lives and significantly reducing the "fog of war". CMDC is proud to have been selected by the U.S. Army leadership to provide this unique communications capability to our warfighters.

......Product BENEFITS

• Situational Awareness sharing
• Air-ground coordination
• On-the-Move, Over-the-Horizon
  communications
• Secure instant messaging
• Continuous mission updates
• Speeds decision-making
• Fratricide avoidance
• Netcentric operations enabler
• Interoperability with ground and other aviation platforms provides an over-the-horizon, on-the-move integrated air/ground situational awareness picture unavailable with any other system today.
• Operates over multiple L-band satellites worldwide, as part of a fully encrypted, packet-data network. Techniques such as spread-spectrum modulation and short burst transmissions help to provide security and low probability of intercept/detect characteristics to ensure the safety and security of the warfighter.
