A team at Hanscom Air Force Base, Massachusetts, is developing a prototype system that can provide command-and-control and video, voice and chat information to partner nations at low cost. The Airborne Extensible Relay Over-Horizon Network, or AERONet, provides a digital link for allied forces, allowing them to see one another's locations and movements, according to a recent Air Force news release. The technology will be displayed to allies at the Bold Quest exercise in Finland this month. Born of an idea from Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. David Goldfein, the concept was refined by the Air Force Research Laboratory and is being brought to market by the Command, Control, Communications, Intelligence and Networks Program, or C3I&N, executive office at Hanscom. C3I&N’s Aerial Networks Division will demonstrate the entire system during Exercise Bold Quest in Finland, which is tailored to experiment with interoperability among NATO and non-NATO nations.
