Advanced Communication Systems Unleash a Tactical Advantage in Modern Combat Operations

To achieve a true level of decisive overmatch, communication systems must be as enduring as the Soldiers who rely on them, writes Jim Richardson, LTG, Army (Retired), Vice President, Army Programs, L3Harris Technologies, in C4ISRNet.

Surviving the Realities of Modern Combat
Today’s operational environments demand more from our warfighters than ever before. In Ukraine, we’ve seen how contested communications and GPS jamming can cripple even the most technologically advanced forces. Soldiers must operate on the move, maintain situational awareness and communicate across diverse networks amid chaos. To achieve a true level of decisive overmatch, communication systems must be as enduring as the Soldiers who rely on them.

Interoperable and survivable systems are critical. Without them, speed and maneuverability lose their value. Proven capabilities can utilize full bandwidth to create ultra-high throughput data transfer, enabling communication systems that excel in real-time connectivity for modern warfare. We can also use multi-mode products to their fullest extent and speed up acquisition with commercially available solutions. By leveraging software updates and innovative technologies, forces can field effective solutions more efficiently. 

Most importantly, we must study the lessons being learned in today’s conflicts and compare them to what history has already taught us.
