The Comms & C2 category explores the backbone of modern command and control in military operations. It covers tactical communication systems, C2/C3/C4ISR networks, satellite communications, and data-link protocols like Link-16. This section provides news and analysis on mesh networks, secure battlefield connectivity, and decision-support technologies that enable real-time coordination. From advanced radios and SATCOM to integrated digital command systems, we examine how communications and C2 solutions enhance situational awareness and operational effectiveness.
