Modern warfare necessitates deployment of multiple forces in different arenas – in the land, air and sea. One of the most complex and important challenges in the battlefield is enabling these forces to work together seamlessly.
To successfully complete combat missions, 8-10 seconds is simply too long to wait to receive or send critical information. Forces must be able to share data and information in real-time, in order to generate timely operational insights that improve mission performance, control and management.
MER Group – through its subsidiary TechMer – develops multi-platform integrated communication solutions to manage the battlefield as a communication cloud, with global interoperability, SATCOM support, instant connection and conferencing.
These interoperability solutions for naval (mCMS) and land (mVIS) forces make possible the seamless transfer of all voice and data, internally and externally, thereby integrating all forces into one network and ensuring everybody is constantly up to date on all relevant battlefield information, including targets, threats and friendly forces.
The video below demonstrates how MER Group’s communication systems can be integrated in the battlefield:
