AFRL Advanced Planning and Autonomous C2 Systems Branch programme manager Brian Holmes said: “The demonstration, which included three of the four mission divisions with AFRL/RI and two geographically separated locations was ‘executed flawlessly’.”

Raytheon is carrying out the RIPL-related work in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

The company has also demonstrated this technology using various waveforms, hardware platforms and data formats.

The RIPL system can support secure tactical-level multi-domain information distribution and interoperability.

In the case of the USAF, the RIPL technology could be used for the Air Force Combat Cloud initiative, which is a crucial component of the US Department of Defense’s Joint All Domain Command and Control and the USAF’s Advanced Battle Management System.

Recently, Raytheon announced completing a performance demonstration for its Presidential and National Voice Conferencing system for the USAF.
