Commercial Telecommunication Services: The Right Choice for the Department of Defense

Overview The technology advancements in the commercial telecommunications industry can offer new capabilities to our military users. How effectively these new capabilities can be obtained depends on several issues. What are the costs? What services will be available? What are the drawbacks? The government gains several advantages when utilizing a commercial system; the initial capital investment is industry financed, the system services are commercially driven to market, and the customers do not require special training when using these systems. This report recommends Iridium and Globalstar wireless communication as a means for providing government communication with cost savings.
