- Description
- The Air Force Materiel Command, Headquarters Electronic Systems Center, Theater Command and Control (TC2) Directorate, Intelligence and Special Programs Division, Intelligence Systems Branch, ESC/HSJI, Hanscom AFB, MA is issuing a Sources Sought Synopsis to identify companies that have the capabilities to provide sustainment of and modernization to the Combat Track II (CTII) system. The CTII system creates a network that links aircraft with each other and with ground stations. SIPRNET users can log into the CTII network using a computer loaded with Tracker software, send/receive messages, and track CTII-equipped aircraft. The CTII system has roll-on/off capability for multiple aircraft platforms. Within each satellite footprint, a single CTII is configured as a Control and Relay Station (CRS). In this mode, the equipment operates as the network master for a satellite channel and defines the Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) frame boundaries by periodically transmitting a start-of-frame message. The other CTIIs within the satellite footprint are configured as In-Transit Units (ITUs). ITUs log-in with the CRS and are assigned a time slot within the frame for transmitting GPS-based position reports. Other portions of the frame are available for text messages, tactical information, and other types of data.
