NATIONAL HARBOR, Md. – A handful of operational U.S. Army brigades now have a tool to “see” how they and enemy forces look in the otherwise invisible electromagnetic spectrum.
The Terrestrial Layer System-Brigade Combat Team Manpack, or TLS BCT, is being fielded to the service’s three “Transformation in Contact” brigades. The Army selected the brigades to receive new commercial equipment, expert training and a series of experiments while preparing for operational deployments.
But soldiers shouldn’t worry — every brigade will receive the TLS BCT.
“The system is going to be deployed to every brigade combat unit in the Army,” said Ken Strayer, program manager for Electronic Warfare and Cyber in an Army release.
