Northrop Grumman Corporation (NYSE: NOC) will participate in Phase 1 of the Common Tactical Edge Network (CTEN) consortium, an opportunity to leverage digital engineering to build and demonstrate the backbone of a connected battlespace for the U.S. Air Force.

The CTEN Phase 1 award was announced after Northrop Grumman successfully demonstrated proven network, communications, and processing solutions to enable Joint All-Domain Command and Control (JADC2) by connecting sensors and platforms to distribute data across all domains.

Northrop Grumman connected previously incompatible links and networks using an Open Mission Systems (OMS) compliant radio, Resilient Network Controller, machine learning algorithms and gateway technology.

"We provide the connectivity for military platforms, sensors and systems to communicate using open, mission-aware networking solutions," said Kevin Berkowitz, senior director, network solutions, Northrop Grumman. "The CTEN demonstration and Phase 1 award are two examples of Northrop Grumman's integrated capabilities that get the right data to the right place at the right time in support of the Department of Defense's JADC2 vision."
