The foundation of network-centric
warfare
Northrop Grumman is the "go to" company for communications
systems that enable secure, seamless information exchange across
all elements of the Global Information Grid. In the heat of
battle or rising international tensions, our advanced systems
assure that vital information goes where and when it's needed
- and with total security. These systems include tactical data
link (TDL) gateway processors, simulators, and test sets … common
link integration processors for aircraft, naval vessels, and
ground vehicles … and mission management control software for
satellite ground stations.
Northrop Grumman offers world-class expertise in tactical
data link (TDL) technology. No other TDL products are as widely
used. Our planning and management software are the industry
standards for satellite communications, RF/wireless, and TDLs.
We are also the premier provider of multi-link and interoperability
certification tools. And, we were the first company to deliver
and market a secure wireless LAN solution good enough to support
military and intelligence applications.

Experience on Major Communications Programs
Link Management Systems
Gateway Manager
Powerful data link processor gives commanders a comprehensive
operational picture in real time. Controls data communications
locally and remotely, making it a flexible tool for managing
tactical networks.
JNPT - JICO Network Planning Tool
The four services branches use this Window-based tool to
build and modify existing Link-16 networks within a few
hours.
LMS-11PC
For more than 20 years, our LMS-11 has monitored Link 11
networks and improved the data link communications of U.S.
and Allied Services. Others have tried to match its capabilities,
but LMS-11PC remains the first choice when commanders need
Link 11 to work in operations.
LMS-16
Proven during operations in Iraq, Afghanistan, Kosovo, and
the Persian Gulf. Enables network managers to handle the
complexities of making tactical data Link 16 communications
work during real-world operations.
LMS-MT
Proven link management capability extended to a multi-TADIL
environment. Manage J, A, and B networks in real-time with
this "all-services" COTS JICO tool.
Test and Certification Systems
CCD - Common Connectivity Device
The connectivity powerhouse that drives our Common Platform
architecture. CCDs translate data among tactical data systems,
including Link 11, Link 16, and CEC.
DS3 - Distributed Simulation Stimulation System
A big dose of reality. The DS3 stimulates combat systems
with sensor, navigation, and weapon system inputs … simulates
motion and activities of thousands of air and surface tracks
simultaneously … models sensors and the environmental effects
on them.
MLST3/MLTT - Multi-Link System Test and Training Tool
Our premier data link simulation system. Perfect for development
support testing, qualification testing, platform integration,
tactical data systems certification, readiness testing,
and training.
Support Services
Aegis Ship Program
For the first time, a new class of ships enters service
with its combat systems already interoperable with fleet
tactical data systems. Northrop Grumman IT developed the
data link test systems and supported the testing and training
that made it possible.
C2P - Command and Control Processor Support Program
Life-cycle support and technical development of the C2P,
Re-host Command and Control Processor (RC2P), and Common
Data Link Management System (CDLMS) programs. Includes software
development, testing, and configuration management, plus
technical documentation and installation support.
NCTSI - Navy Center for Tactical Systems Interoperability
Helping NCTSI to assure interoperability of tactical data
link systems and provide the fleet support to achieve this
goal since 1978.
Programs
I-JSS - Interim JICO Support System
Now, Joint Interface Control Officers will have the ability
to dynamically manage tactical data link networks in support
of network-centric, combat operations - so they can better
ensure real-time sharing of threat, target, and command
and control information.
ITAS - Integrated Tactical Avionics Systems
Developed for the Royal Australian Navy SH-2G(A) Super Seasprite
helicopter. Provides crew members complete and up-to-the
moment-awareness of the tactical situation.
NILE - NATO-Improved Link 11
Enables participating NATO nations to procure tactical data
systems that are interoperable and compatible with those
of the other participating Link 22 nations.
ROBE - Roll-On Beyond Line-of-Sight Enhancement
Roll this rapidly installable and transportable tactical
data link node onto a tanker aircraft. Instantly, the tanker
is a communications center, able to relay command decision-making
information anywhere in the world.
SRMT - Surveillance Reconnaissance Management Tool
The first shipboard system that assists afloat commanders
in managing surveillance and reconnaissance information
during Joint Task Force operations.
