Description
Description — Network Tactical Common Data Link (CDL)
Network Tactical Common Data Link (NTCDL) provides the ability to transmit/receive real-time intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) data simultaneously from multiple sources (air, surface, sub-surface, and manportable) and exchange command and control information (voice, data, imagery, and full-motion video) across dissimilar joint, service, coalition, and civil networks. NTCDL provides warfighters the capability to support multiple, simultaneous, networked operations with in-service Common Data Link (CDL) equipped aircraft (e.g., MH- 60R) in addition to next-generation manned and unmanned platforms (e.g., P-8 Poseidon, Triton, MQ-25 (Stingray), small tactical unmanned aircraft systems (STUAS), and Fire Scout). NTCDL benefits the Fleet by providing a horizon extension for line-of-sight systems for use in time-critical strike missions. FY24 and FY25 procurements executed on a 3-year contract extension. Unit price increased from the estimated $10M to ~$13.8M, due to increased market rates. For FY26 and beyond, a tech refresh is planned, and procurement will transition to a smaller-scale system via a follow-on production contract.
Justification
Justification — Network Tactical Common Data Link (CDL)
The FY 2026 request was reduced by $0.707 million for Advisory and Assistance Services to promote efficiencies and advance the policies of the Administration in alignment with Executive Order 14222, "Implementing the President's Department of Government Efficiency Cost Efficiency Initiative." The FY 2026 request was reduced by $0.278 million for civilian personnel to optimize the workforce in compliance with Executive Order 14210, "Implementing the President's Department of Government Efficiency Workforce Optimization Initiative." FY26 funding supports a tech refresh, and procurement will transition to a smaller-scale system via a follow-on production contract. FY26 funding also supports associated DSA for shipALT installation design requirements.
