Small Tactical Terminal (STT) KOR 24 Link 16 UHF/VHFNetwork Connectivity for Weapons, Platforms, and Missions The Harris-ViaSat Small Tactical Terminal (STT) KOR 24 brings real-time situational awareness, location and command and control to the Warfighter at the tactical network edge. In a single radio terminal, the edge user has access to both air and ground friendly and enemy situation data and can provide both target data to the network in a secure and robust manner.
This two channel radio can be used to bridge the gap in users' awareness between the air picture provided by TADIL-J/Link 16, and the ground picture provided on VMF and other VHF/UHF data links. STT features and capabilities dramatically reduce data latency and improve data integrity between the traditional network platform users and the edge users for both situational awareness and command and control. Link 16 built in identification means that STT terminals provide blue force reporting to reduce blue-on-blue engagements. With standardized TADIL messages and Ethernet interfaces, the STT can be used with multiple computers in a wide range of applications. STT is a radio designed to meet the needs of users who have Space, Weight, and Power (SWaP) constraints but need to take advantage of the information available on tactical VHF/UHF and/or Link16 Networks. STT brings mobile network connectivity to dismounted warfighters and disadvantaged platforms such as ground vehicles, helicopters, UAVs and Network Enabled Weapons. STT is ruggedized to meet or exceed the demanding environmental requirements of those disadvantaged platforms. This two channel VHF/UHF and Link 16 radio is packaged in an industry leading compact form factor and is available at an affordable cost. The STT is jointly developed between Harris Corporation and ViaSat Corporation. It uses same proven core processing and crypto hardware as the Harris Falcon III (PRC-152) radio. STT expands the Link 16 functionality through ViaSat Link-16 Core Software (LCS) features. For more information on STT capabilities or to schedule a demonstration, please contact:
