U.S. Navy multi-domain battle management experts needed transmit\/receive capability of intelligence, surveillance, and\u00a0reconnaissance\u00a0data for tasking, collection, processing, and dissemination. they found their solution from the BAE Systems Electronic Systems segment in Greenlawn, N.Y.<\/p>\n
Officials of the Naval Information Warfare Systems Command in San Diego announced a $85 million order to BAE Systems on Friday for Network Tactical Common Data Link (NTCDL) systems. The order brings the value of the BAE Systems NTCDL contract to $296.2 million.<\/p>\n
NTCDL provides a real-time exchange of voice, data, imagery, and full-motion video from aircraft, surface warships, submarines, and warfighters on land. It helps the Navy\u00a0tactical networking\u00a0operations using currently fielded common data link (CDL) equipment, as well as next-generation manned and unmanned systems.<\/p>\n
Initial NTCDL systems are going aboard Navy aircraft carriers and large-deck amphibious assault ships. NTCDL is a modular, scalable system designed to increase link capacity and embrace waveform evolution.<\/p>\n
The technology uses an\u00a0open-systems\u00a0architecture with non-proprietary interfaces, and is reprogrammable to adapt to new and evolving mission needs. BAE Systems is building NTCDL technology at its facilities in Wayne, N.J., and Greenlawn, N.Y.<\/p>\n
BAE Systems is working with partner Ball Aerospace to advance the two companies\u2019 joint Multi Link CDL Systems development. Ball is building the Ku-band phased array antenna suite for BAE Systems on the NTCDL project.<\/p>\n
These multi-beam planar phased array antennas from Ball Aerospace are based on silicon germanium (SiGe) technologies on one circuit board, which results in a low-profile antenna.<\/p>\n
The antennas initially will be installed on naval aircraft carriers to enable the ships to communicate with a range of intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) platforms.<\/p>\n
On this order BAE Systems will do the work in Greenlawn, N.Y., and should be finished by September 2028.
