The WGS delivers converged IP-based voice, data and intelligence to support manoeuvrability of US forces and constant situational awareness.

The satellite system also provides the army with high-capacity bandwidth to provide long-haul reach.

Kratos IT Solutions president Phil Carrai said that in comparison with ground-based networks, satellite communications present additional complexity and greater potential for disruption given varying wireless link conditions and the use of non-standard network equipment.

The company will deploy the network management solution within the US Army’s joint management operations subsystem.
