Tactical Assault Kit (TAK)
Boost situational awareness with trusted TAK tools
Enhance situational awareness with smart, scalable tech proven in the field. Our TAK-compatible solutions are easy to deploy, sync data securely across teams, and work with the tech you already have.
Our teams engineer plugin-ready solutions that TAK users count on in the field. Since our technologies are built on open systems, they allow you to add any partner, require no proprietary hardware, and connect easily with existing systems—all protected with zero trust security.
Sit(x)®
The Booz Allen Sit(x)® platform enables real-time situational awareness to support successful operations and intelligence gathering. Connect users across TAK platforms within a unified operating environment. The Sit(x) mobile application allows users to share data instantly while visualizing the location and movement of others in the field.
Operator connects multiple systems with Sit(x) to enhance situational awareness.
- Open Systems: Empower users to use the Sit(x) tool independently or with ATAK to monitor mission performance and maintain real-time communication
- Bridge Adaptors: Permit third-party systems to send and receive data securely across groups, allowing tech partners to develop microservices to inject an interoperability layer for TAK users
- Data Sync: Create, view, and update missions via TAK plugin so the team stays informed and updated
- Active Monitoring: Allow users to livestream unmanned aircraft system video, device video, and stationary camera video securely and simply
- Security and Privacy Controls: Ensure data stays private and is protected from unauthorized access
Tactical Edition (TE) Enabler
The Booz Allen TE Enabler is a software-based plugin extending TAK situational awareness functionality on government systems. It’s designed to enhance operational capabilities for military and tactical use.
- Custom Plugin: Supports deployments for any mission
- Secure Communications: Provides seamless network connectivity via Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)—powered by ATAK and WinTAK
- Instant Metrics and Feedback: Provides real-time location and live sensor data analysis with DHCP
- Enhanced Concealment Features: Allows use in low-light conditions without compromising the operator’s position; disables all radio transmissions to prevent detection
- Pro-Grade Camera: Captures high-resolution images and videos, even in challenging environments
- Rugged Design: Tested against MIL-STD-810H standards, with an IP68 rating for dust, dirt, sand, and water resistance
- Endurance-Grade Battery System: Supports fast charging and pogo pin charging, with the option to replace the battery for quick turnaround
When team collaboration matters at the edge, rely on the TE Enabler to deliver secure, seamless, and mission-ready connectivity.
Unmanned Capabilities Ecosystem
The Booz Allen unmanned capabilities ecosystem enables organizations to connect their unmanned systems (UMS) with the U.S. government’s Tactical Assault Kit/Team Awareness Kit (TAK). Leveraging deep mission expertise, our team engineers the full experience, bringing together telemetry, full-motion video (FMV), and command and control (C2) elements to expand situational awareness across domains—with the scale and customization that missions demand.
Warfighters rely on Booz Allen TAK-compatible tools to deliver situational awareness at the edge.
- Open, Compatible Deployment: Ensure TAK, digital data link UMS radios, and Android devices work in unison to deliver at the tactical edge.
- Mission Data Fusion: Enable FMV, telemetry, and mission data streams to flow cleanly into the TAK common operational picture for rapid, informed action via bespoke ground control station software.
- Custom Plugin Engineering: Engineer, deploy, and sustain tailored mission workflows and plugins that expand UMS functionality and accelerate field adoption.
- Operational Dependability: Deliver rugged performance and continuity in disconnected, contested, and low-bandwidth environments.
- Technical and Domain Expertise: Provide the SMEs, technologists, and scientists who make UMS-to-TAK capability work for each unique mission need—from drones to gimbals.
By pairing the TAK ecosystem with our technical leadership and system enablement, UMS operators gain seamless command, continuous data visibility, and trusted ground control station software wherever missions demand.
Gv Solutions
The Booz Allen Gv series of solutions provides users with geospatial data visualization and management tools for imagery and FMV—empowering operators, analysts, planners, and team members across the mission. Our lightweight, deployable solutions accelerate decision advantage with flexible capabilities that help teams view, connect, and analyze data to get the advantage.
- Simultaneous Display: Manage and exploit a wide variety of geospatial data and associated metadata for deep analytics.
- FMV-Ready: Benefit from FMV playback compliant with National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA)’s Motion Imagery Standards Board (MISB).
- Multiformat Support: Seamlessly handle raster imagery, multiple video formats, and a broad range of imagery and video standards—including multispectral and hyperspectral.
- Secure, No-Restrictions Deployment: All Gv solutions are developed and tested in a secure DevOps environment and come with no export restrictions.
- Optimized for Developers: Leverage lightweight, platform-independent solutions with flexible, resilient, and accurate capabilities out of the box—helping development teams make the most of their time, energy, and budget.
- Field-Proven Performance: Trusted and used by U.S. defense programs, including Distributed Common Ground System (DCGS) and Air Operations Centers.
When real-time intelligence matters, Gv solutions deliver precise visualization, seamless data connection, and mission-ready situational awareness wherever the mission leads.
