Overmatch is fleeting and while traditional acquisitions can’t always keep up with new threats, a different and approved practice can.

While the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) defined “open systems” at a high-level, each branch of the U.S. military is determining what that means for them. Collins Aerospace Mosarc™ solutions can address that across next-gen systems like NGAD, FVL, and KC-X.

What do you get when you combine a light and an antenna for Future Vertical Lift?

You get higher speeds with less weight and drag. Meeting speed, range and payload targets for the Army’s two Future Vertical Lift programs can be partially accomplished with transformational integrations of systems that have never been brought together before.

There’s no one software application, wave form, or set of capabilities that can win the day against near peers. Open systems, however, are that one thing that will keep Army systems relevant in all stages of conflict.
