TopLink-SANDY
Bringing Smartphone user experience to tactical data link users.
In modern conflicts, and in coalition operations in particular, the ability to share tactical data with allied units has become an absolute necessity. But helicopters, lighter mission aircraft and special forces units virtually never have access to tactical data links because the systems in service today have tended to be too big, too heavy and too expensive.
TopLink-Sandy runs on a ruggedised tablet connected to the modems and radios that provide access to tactical data links. It is specially designed for the cramped conditions of a light mission aircraft cockpit, helicopter or any other SWaP-constrained environment like a mobile command post or a vehicle used by special forces units. The system can also be installed on a PC in a UAV ground control station, for example, bringing unmanned aircraft pilots access to the tactical data they need to accomplish their missions safely and effectively.
In modern conflicts, and in coalition operations in particular, the ability to share tactical data with allied units has become an absolute necessity. Tactical data link situational awareness has never before been able to be installed on units such as helicopters, lighter mission aircraft and special forces units – but that changes now.
The new TopLink-Sandy solution is an innovative human-system interface that’s easy to use and affordable. It leverages SmartPhone technology to the forefront of tactical communication.
