Tactical Data Link Translation Gateway for Secure Military Command and Control Introduced by Curtiss-Wright
Published in Military & Aerospace Electronics
HUNTR provides warfighters and command and control centers with real-time access to accurate operational data in the field.
The Curtiss-Wright Corp. Defense Solutions division in Ashburn, Va., is introducing the HUNTR tactical data link translation gateway for Link 16, Variable Message Format (VMF), Cursor-On-Target (CoT), Joint Range Extension Applications Protocol (JREAP), Situational Awareness Data Link (SADL), and Cooperative ESM Operations (CESMO).
Today, moving data between similar and dissimilar data links is a daunting task. HUNTR is a software application that improves and simplifies the real-time translation and routing of tactical data links.
It provides warfighters and command and control centers with real-time access to accurate operational data in the field.
HUNTR supports the automatic routing, forwarding, and translation of J-series, K-series, CoT, and CESMO messages and automates processing and translation of several, simultaneous Digitally-Aided Close Air Support (DACAS) missions between ground JTAC kits equipped with VMF or CoT radios and air/land/sea Link 16 assets.
