The terminals will provide deployed marines robust, beyond-line-of-sight communications for a broad spectrum of information services including video, multimedia, data and imagery.
Under this order, the US Marine Corps is requesting quantities of General Dynamics' Warrior 120 (1.2m) and Warrior 180 (1.8m) very small aperture (VSAT) flyaway terminals and 2.4m trailer-mounted terminals for quick-setup tactical communications.
The Marine's SWAN program is acquiring this equipment through the World-Wide Satellite Systems (WWSS) contract, which is intended to provide communications systems that are capable of overcoming existing and projected bandwidth constraints for Department of Defense transformation programs worldwide. WWSS is available to support all federal communications missions, including disaster relief and homeland security efforts.
