Battlefield Awareness and Targeting System - Dismounted (BATS-D)

Battlefield Awareness and Targeting System - Dismounted (BATS-D) Handheld Radio

The radio revolutionizes missions and makes new kinds of operations possible, including:

  • Digitally-aided close air support
  • Other call for fires (artillery/rockets)
  • Digitally-enabled command and control
  • Combat search and rescue
  • MedEvac

Direct access to the Link 16 network to coordinate and maneuver forces

For the first time in history, Joint Terminal Attack Controllers (JTACs) have a digital connection directly into Close Air Support (CAS) aircraft mission computers via machine-to-machine interface over Link 16. With secure and reliable access to both air and ground (friendly and enemy) data, targeting timelines are significantly shortened by nearly 95%, reducing the risk of fratricide incidents.

BATS-D: A radio like no other

"Every single JTAC we surveyed who's used the BATS-D system said they don't just want the BATS-D radio, they don't want to go into combat without it."

 â€“ Ed Priest
Former U.S. Air Force Combat Controller for 23+ Years
