What is a STOM Bridge? • STOM Bridge is an Architectural Approach designed to: • Bridge battlefield Command and Control over distance • Enable Marines anywhere on the battlefield to access data through current T/E systems • Enables near-term (04-05) development of data networking TTPs • Provide a stable “Interim Communications Architecture” that remains relevant when JTRS and TCA arrive. • Shortens the acquisition timeline for C2 capabilities
