Space-Aerial Connectivity through SpaceMADL Enables:
SpaceMADL (Multifunction Advanced Data Link) Bridges Domains to Provide Integrated Detection, Tracking, Engagement Planning & Execution LEO/MEO Transport Layer/Cross Link MADL Up-Link MADL Up-Link MADL Down-Link MADL Down-Link MADL Space-Aerial Connectivity through SpaceMADL Enables: Early threat warning + low-latency/quality tracking AI/MIL based on-board process and autonomous target detection Resilient, Low-Latency, Multi-Level-Secure, Multi-Domain Comm network links critical sources to end-nodes needing minimally routed data. LPI / LPD / Anti-Jam leveraged from F-35 to LEO Satellites & Advanced Weapons Interoperability – Low implementation costs to field capability – SpaceMADL is compatible with F-35 & 524 platforms + advanced counter-HSW weapons. Autonomous Collaboration – MADL enables weapons to act like mini-F-35 fusion nodes.
