U.S. Army, WIN-T

MDS personnel have experience in the architectural and deployment aspects of the Army's CECOM, WIN-T C4ISR system.

 

The Warfighter Information Network-Tactical (WIN-T) is the Army XXI's tactical telecommunications system consisting of communication infrastructure and network components from the maneuver battalion to the theater rear boundary. The WIN-T network is intended to provide command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (C4ISR) support capabilities that are mobile, secure, survivable, seamless, and capable of supporting multimedia tactical information systems within the warfighters' battlespace.

C4ISR, NetCentric and Secure Environments

MDS's Command, Control & Comm. Systems engineering brings together our in-depth technical expertise with our diverse knowledge of military systems, protocols and environments to ensure effective, economical designs and subsequent deployments. Our personnel have been instrumental in the architectural theorizing and hard design aspects of critical elements of the most visionary armed forces communications efforts undertaken to date. This work has included the integration of high-speed, high-capacity communications networks to meet the Army's long-term vision for a fighting force that is more responsive, agile and versatile. We have supported the detailed design and field prototyping of critical, on-the-move communications systems upgrades for the U.S. Army. These systems involve the orderly replacement of stovepipe communications systems with an advanced technology IP network. Additionally, for organizations such as the FAA, we have contributed to the establishment of operational communications which necessitate extensive redundancy and diversity with near instantaneous restoration of failed or degraded service.
