US Army eyes milestone FY 2020 decision for network modernisation

New pieces of communications have accompanied the US Army’s 2nd Security Force Assistance Brigade (SFAB) on its deployment to Afghanistan, and soldiers’ operational feedback is expected to help guide network modernisation plans and the road ahead for the Integrated Tactical Network (ITN).
Army leaders have since detailed tentative plans to revamp the service’s network as part of an ongoing effort to veer away from the Warfighter Information Network – Tactical (WIN-T) and towards one deemed better suited to support soldiers during peer-on-peer conflict.
Enter the ITN, an effort designed, in part, to enable soldiers to operate in secret and ‘secure but unclassified’ (SBU) environments by using legacy radios with advanced networking waveforms, commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) radios, small aperture satellite terminal, servers, and more.
