Modular battle management solution enables seamless integration
of disparate C2 data systems, making it well-equipped for
deployment to multi-domain environments
Booz Allen Hamilton (NYSE: BAH) today announced it will
collaborate with L3Harris Technologies (NYSE: LHX) on advancing
leading mission system integration capabilities to address the
Department of Defense’s (DOD) critical need to modernize and
rapidly enable Combined Joint All-Domain Command & Control
(CJADC2) to support the future warfighter in contested
environments.
This strategic cooperation will enable the accelerated
development and delivery of Booz Allen’s Distributed Battle
Management Node (DBMN) Tactical Operations Center-Light (TOC-L)
prototype utilizing Booz Allen’s Modular Detachment Kit (MDK) as
the foundation of the solution. MDK is a proven and operational
multidomain integration agent for tactical command and control (C2)
that provides holistic integration of disparate tactical C2 data
systems.
“Warfighters need a highly mobile, tailorable, and scalable
command and control system at the edge,” said Steve Escaravage,
executive vice president at Booz Allen and leader of the firm’s
Digital Battlespace Platform. “MDK was designed to meet this
operational need and enable new warfighting concepts including
joint fires. This proven solution exemplifies Booz Allen’s focus on
applying innovation at the intersection of mission and technology
while transitioning new capabilities from the lab to real-world
operations.”
Booz Allen’s operational battle management command and control
prototypes using MDK as a design baseline were developed within the
firm’s Digital Battlespace Platform, which builds modular,
scalable, flexible solutions to empower a joint force at the edge.
Using model-based systems engineering (MBSE) for design rigor,
MDK's architecture ensures adaptability and informed decision
making providing the Joint Forces a transformational tactical
equipment package that can be configured and scaled to meet the
commander's intent to complement Agile Combat Employment (ACE)
requirements. MDK is a fielded capability that has demonstrated
tangible results in a warfighter environment in multiple domains
through live-fire exercises and rapid deployment by the U.S. Air
Forces in Europe (USAFE) to bring state-of-the-art capabilities for
theater C2.
The collaboration on TOC-L aligns with L3Harris' focus on
fielding integrated, scalable, and resilient solutions that enable
decision making for the warfighter at the tactical edge.
This joint effort also brings together two industry leaders. For
more than 100 years, Booz Allen has positioned itself at the
forefront of complex missions, providing its in-depth expertise in
AI, cybersecurity, and engineering to the federal government, while
L3Harris has been an industry leader in key areas, including
tactical radios, datalinks, and waveform development for over 70
years. In addition, L3Harris’ expertise in MSI, scalable sensors
and processing, tactical communications, cyber, production, and
sustainment will broaden MDK’s applicability and make the solution
readily available and accessible to warfighters across services in
any domain.
“The MDK architecture was built to play a pivotal role in
enabling CJADC2 operations by delivering kinetic and non-kinetic
effects via data-driven C2 at the edge,” said Khalid Syed, the
senior vice president at Booz Allen driving next-generation
command, control, and communications battle management technologies
through the firm’s Digital Battlespace Platform. “Our collaboration
with L3Harris enables large-scale integration and production of our
TOC-L prototype utilizing MDK and its future configurations,
accelerating delivery to match the speed of our clients’ mission
needs. Looking ahead, MDK is poised for further live-fire testing
and operational deployment.”
