In an age where our adversaries are challenging US forces and our partners globally. Our battlefields are diverse. They are worldwide and multi-domain. They are agile and in cyberspace. Peer Competitors are testing our vulnerabilities from vast distances, where every physical location is a target. Our forces and networks are at risk. Command and Control must adapt. As must our networks and communication links.
There is a better way. Booz Allen’s Modular Detachment Kit, or M-D-K, is redefining C2 by integrating Air, Land, Maritime, and Space domain awareness. It connects operational and tactical forces around the world, via edge networks, and to the cloud. It constantly changes secure connections, which are concealed from adversaries. M-D-K is a hardware, software, vendor agnostic approach to delivering integrated C-2 operations and training solutions that enables decentralized C-2. It securely connects sensors to decision makers, to shooters. Leveraging modular, scalable, tailorable decentralized C-2, sensor and communication nodes. M-D-K builds, fuses, and distributes a common operating picture across the joint spectrum. It establishes remote voice and data communications to positively control any sector from anywhere. And it can be operated by small teams of just 2-6 people. M-D-K’s modules provide the most comprehensive and informative operational picture to our military anywhere in the world.
Whether you need to establish an operations center, local or remote, Link 16 or Tactical Data Link access, secure ground-to-air radio transmissions anywhere in the world, to integrate joint or coalition, traditional or passive sensors into the Tactical and Common Operating Pictures, or to monitor, maintain, and manage the distributed C-2 enterprise from a consolidated maintenance operations center, M-D-K has you covered. Take only what you need. Connect ally and partner capability for complete battlespace awareness. And hide in plain sight. M-D-K brings Air Force C-2 capabilities into the future through edge networks and secure cloud services, providing faster, more robust, secure C-2. From anywhere to everywhere…M-D-K.
