Abstract

In this paper we describe the operational benefits of JTRS and the critical contribution this program represents in the Department of Defensepsilas network centric vision. The first increment of JTRS provides radio systems and critical networking capabilities to warfighters representing the tactical edge. This capability is enabled through servicepsilas platform and system-of-system integration activities. Future JTRS increments plan to add additional critical operational capabilities, to include fielding common data and voice waveforms across all operational domains, enhancing interoperability with the United Kingdom and improving spectrum management integration with electronic warfare systems. We will quantify the capability improvements JTRS brings to the warfighter over current systems through an analysis of the Joint Close Air Support (JCAS) mission thread utilizing JP 3-09.3 Close Air Support (CAS) publication [1] and the TWJN CONOPS [2]. This analysis will support the notion that technology introduction needs appropriate Tactics, Techniques and Procedure (TPP) changes to maximize the capability improvements.
