team members. In addition to inter-echelon communications, realtime communications between members of a squad increase the
likelihood of mission success and help ensure troop safety.
Intra-squad communications, moreover, should not create
an additional burden or distraction for the soldier or marine,
who needs to be able to focus on his surroundings. And the
communications system must provide reliable intra-squad
connectivity, whether the squad members are in fighting positions,
performing house-to-house searches, or simply walking down
the street.
Harris FalconFighter systems and accessories are assembled into
cost-effective mission modules to solve these and other problems
faced by soldiers, marines, and small teams. Tactical video kits
allow a soldier on a human intelligence mission to record video
of interactions with civilians, as well as transmit that information
and still images back to higher echelons. With a scope adapter, a
similar kit enables a sniper team to send video to higher echelons
for confirmation of the targets identity.
To minimize the burden on the warfighter, Harris has designed
a simple FalconFighter ensemble that provides robust
communications between team members, regardless of their
posture or location. The radio can be easily keyed while the soldier
continues to observe his surroundings. The headset not only
minimizes the probability of detection due to very low emitted
noise, but also provides hearing protection.

which allows him to communicate with the team over the SPR
and also to communicate with and bridge data to his command
network on the RF-7800M-HH radio.
As the soldiers move through the village, they are able to clearly
communicate their status and pertinent details about their
locale. The body-worn dipole antennas are easy to maneuver
with and provide greater range than standard rubber duck
antennas, ensuring team connectivity even in built-up areas. While
the search advances, the videographer and squad leader are
interviewing the townspeople. These interactions are captured in
the Tactical Video Processor for subsequent briefing to analysts at
the Forward Operating Base.
At a critical point in an interview, the squad leader feels that
the information being presented is of real-time importance. The
videographer begins to stream video and audio to the team
leader, who retransmits it over the longer-range, networked
RF-7800M-HH to the platoon leader. The information is routed
from the platoon vehicle to the forward base over the RF-7800M
manpack radio, which supplies greater bandwidth and increased
throughput.
When the team captures a picture of a villager who is acting
suspiciously, it is immediately transmitted back to base. Analysts
there confirm that the person is indeed a threat and should be
apprehended, but not before the suspect runs into a nearby shop
and takes several hostages. To protect the other civilians and their
property, the platoon leader dispatches a sniper team to eliminate
the threat.

FalconCommand Application
FalconCommand allows leaders to share vital battlefield
intelligence with their soldiers during mission planning and as
the mission unfolds. By equipping each member of the infantry
command staff with up-to-date intelligence, plans, and situational
awareness, information superiority over the enemy is achieved,
ensuring mission success.
Compatible with military or civilian GPS, the system provides
dynamically updated navigational information via radio
communications. Real-time troop position updates for both
friendly and enemy forcesalong with sensor data and status
provide a user-defined common operational picture of the
battlefield.
Under the team leaders control, soldiers automatically receive
target acquisition, identification, and target hand-off functions.
Audible alerts can be generated to warn when key points or NoGo zones are approached. FalconCommand also automatically
transmits No-Fire or danger zones and Man Down alerts to help
account for every soldier.
