Raytheon Chosen For Key Role In Army High Capacity Comms Program
Marlborough, Mass - Apr 26, 2004 Raytheon Company has been selected by the U.S. Army Space and Terrestrial Communications Directorate for an 18-month study phase of the High Capacity Communications Capability (HC3) program. Final award selection will follow completion of the study phase. This strategic program is central to the Army's transformational net- centric communications efforts, providing for the implementation of a comprehensive "Command and Control on the Move" capability. The team led by Raytheon will develop and integrate systems critical to the mission of Army and Marine Corps information superiority. "HC3 is the anchor program for high capacity satellite access for the Army's Warfighter Information Network-Tactical (WIN-T), and for the Marine Corps' Tactical Data Network (TDN). It is how we transform range extension of the Global Information Grid," said Jerry Powlen, vice president of Raytheon's Integrated Communication Systems. "We will leverage our success in Army and Marine Corps SMART-T and other MILSATCOM programs to integrate these systems for our Warfighters." The process will include adaptation of software compliant architecture and joint technical architecture policies, as utilized for the Joint Tactical Radio System. Work will be performed at Raytheon's Network Centric Systems facility in Marlborough, Mass., and with a core industry team across the United States. Network Centric Systems is Raytheon's leader in communication systems integration.
