Raytheon Intelligence & Space (RI&S) has recently completed a performance demonstration of the Presidential and National Voice Conferencing (PNVC) system for the US Air Force (USAF).
The latest end-to-end system performance demonstration was conducted to showcase the latest upgrades that have been added to the PNVC system to improve its existing command-and-control capabilities.

It involved airborne, ground fixed and ground transportable configurations such as Advanced Extremely High Frequency to determine the system’s integrated component functionality and performance across the PNVC nodes.
The effort validated that the enhanced protected communications capabilities of the PNVC system are now capable of supporting the Nuclear Command, Control and Communications (NC3) platform.
The NC3 capability is a significant element of the US Department of Defense’s future command-and-control network initiative, called Joint All Domain Command and Control (JADC2), to connect multi-domain forces and battlespace.
