Tactical Data Link 22: NATO Improved Link 11 - NILE

Overview Northrop Grumman Information Technology (IT) developed the Link 22 data link as a data communications link among air, surface, subsurface, and ground-based tactical units using radio frequency (RF) media. Seven participating NATO nations contracted through the U.S. Navy for the development of this economical but capable data link. The development program produced the software system for the System Network Controller (SNC) of Link 22 communications systems, and the NILE Reference System, a test system for Link 22 systems. The SNC software provides the communications transport function, including network protocols, and the multi-media system and network management function.
