Proposal Statement
The Real-Time Information in the Cockpit (RTIC) system allows C-17 aircraft to participate on multiple data link networks using technologies already fielded on other Department of Defense (DoD) assets. The system must provide growth capability for future tactical data link networks to include Link 16 capability that can pass significant data between aircraft that increases KC-135 survivability and interoperability with other Link 16 participants in the missions they execute
Recommendation Information
CRITICAL NEED FOR SUPPORT- The ANG C-17 fleet requires comprehensive and networked battle space awareness.
STATES IMPACTED - All ANG C-17 Aircraft at CONUS and OCONUS sites
MISSION CRITICAL NEED -Link 16 capability ensures Increased situational awareness is needed to correlate onboard and off-board threat detection, terrain masking, and optimized dynamic rerouting capabilities to minimize exposure to threats
DEPLOYMENTJUSTIFICATION- Future conflicts will include a wide spectrum of Radio Frequency (RF) threats, in addition to a robust IR threat from man portable and vehicle-borne systems. To survive, C-17 aircraft require an RTIC with Link 16 data link capability to pass significant threat, drop zone and aircraft information between aircraft
.
FUNDING JUSTIFICATION - Funding out of the C-17 will be out of the National Guard and Reserve Equipment Account (Appn 0350)
USAF FUNDING TO DATE - USAF is considering Link 16 capability for their C-17s as well
ANG REQUIREMENT - 134 aircraft will be fielded with Link 16 Radios as part of the RTIC program
