A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/industry\/2022\/09\/14\/nsa-seeks-proposals-for-contract-at-heart-of-booz-allen-antitrust-case\/\" target=\"_blank\">formal request for proposals<\/a> is expected in mid-March. Those eventually chosen will be funded for weeks of testing, according to the notice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Air Force is specifically interested in original kit that can boost data transfer rates and reduce latency, are hardened against jamming and intercept, can be scalable, and can be adopted by users with little in common.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2046\" height=\"1152\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Screen-Shot-2023-01-10-at-9.15.08-AM.png.png\" alt=\"An example of the digital infrastructure underlying the U.S. Air Force's Advanced Battle Management System is pictured.\" class=\"wp-image-111983\" srcset=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Screen-Shot-2023-01-10-at-9.15.08-AM.png.png 2046w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Screen-Shot-2023-01-10-at-9.15.08-AM.png.png?resize=300,169 300w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Screen-Shot-2023-01-10-at-9.15.08-AM.png.png?resize=768,432 768w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Screen-Shot-2023-01-10-at-9.15.08-AM.png.png?resize=1024,577 1024w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Screen-Shot-2023-01-10-at-9.15.08-AM.png.png?resize=1536,865 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2046px) 100vw, 2046px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">An example, pictured, of the digital infrastructure underpinning the U.S. Air Force&#8217;s Advanced Battle Management System.

In September, he said reforming command-and-control systems is harder than expected and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/air\/2022\/09\/19\/battle-management-reforms-prove-daunting-general-to-oversee-effort\/\" target=\"_blank\">announced the appointment of a new program executive officer<\/a>, Brig. Gen. Luke Cropsey, to supervise the endeavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The service that same month also selected several companies \u2014 L3Harris Technologies, Leidos, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon Technologies and Science Applications International Corporation, together known as the ABMS Digital Infrastructure Consortium \u2014 to buttress its efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The five are all among the 40 largest global defense firms by revenue, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/people.defensenews.com\/top-100\/\" target=\"_blank\">a Defense
