The Suite B encryption allows users to switch between U.S./NATO
and independent networks on a single radio – removing the need to
maintain two separate radio systems. This enables the elimination
of duplicate maintenance, training, user support and logistics
activities – freeing up capital for other military expenditures.
Suite B security can also be integrated with additional waveforms
to address new battlefield challenges as they arise.
“This secure capability allows our NATO partners to use the 117G
to its fullest extent in battlefield scenarios that require
multi-mission capabilities, while still maintaining independent
communications capability for their own training and operations,”
said Chris Young, president, Harris Communication Systems.
