Under supervision from Warner Robins Air Force Base in Houston County, Georgia, Alion will provide modeling and simulation support for the new Mode 5 IFF to determine whether the new model meets the objectives of providing increased capacity and efficiency without diminishing safety.
Additionally, because the new system uses radio waveforms, Alion M&S support will determine compatability of the new system existing Air Traffic Control (ATC) standards and does not interfere with mission-critical ATC signals. The Alion-operated MSIAC provides broad support in modeling and simulation throughout the federal government.
