Eye in the Sky for Boots on the Ground.
The U.S. Air Force E-8C Joint Surveillance Target Attack Radar System aircraft, now with the Beyond-Line-of-Sight communications upgrade, gives the warfighter the edge in mountainous terrain. Joint STARS’ wide area surveillance and communication interface gives the warfighter access to information, imagery, chat capability, and other support when and where it is needed. These Eyes in the Sky for Boots on the Ground allow our troops to maintain direct communication with battle managers and all the resources at their disposal to see around corners, over mountains, and into valleys. It’s the only system available that provides our troops with the vital “Eyes in the Sky” needed for wide area surveillance and battlefield management.
Northrop Grumman Joint STARS:
ISR capability on demand...and in demand.
