Minimized Space, Weight and Power Network Architecture Solution

In Phase II.5, Fuse will build on initial research into the Minimized SWaP Network Architecture to rapidly deliver a smaller, lighter, cheaper, and more flexible networking capability to multiple NAVAIR platforms with Tactical Data Link capability. With an understanding of the Navy network architecture, Fuse can implement and test its CORETM system for both airborne and surface use. Fuse will build upon initial research to provide PMA-266 with an ability to extend the CORE 4.0 system with a Tactical Data Link Host and Gateway to support the MUDLAN Joint Concept Technology Demonstration (JCTD). Phase II.5 will result in a system that is ready for fleet transition. Because of the advanced level of development Fuse has already achieved, this proposed strategy can be executed in a streamlined timeline to meet schedule requirements of the MUDLAN phased demonstration program.
