Lockheed Martin: working on interoperability with the RAF

(CercleFinance.com) - Lockheed Martin has announced that Skunk Works, its R&D division, has worked with the Royal Air Force (RAF) Rapid Capabilities Office (RCO) to carry out the first real-time sharing of classified data between an F-35 and a non-US Command and Control (C2) system.


In this flight demonstration, an F-35 shared data via Skunk Works' Open Systems Gateway (OSG), using commercial satellite communications, to an RAF RCO laboratory in Farnborough, UK, where the data was integrated into the Nexus C2 system.

This success marks a major advance in the F-35's multi-domain integration and interoperability with a non-US C2 system.

This exercise marks a breakthrough in multi-domain operations, highlighting the F-35's ability to share classified data with our international partners, it added.
