Military and commercial users alike depend on intelligent and secure communications for various key requirements such as:

• Robust data links and resilient autonomous networking:
• Missionized systems for specialized aircraft and spacecraft;
• Collaborative ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance);
• Simulation and training systems;
• Mechanical systems; and
• Advanced interior solutions.
