The U.S. Navy has indicated its intent to award Northrop Grumman (NYSE: NOC) an order to continue non-recurring design engineering work on a tactical datalink intended for the military branch’s MQ-8C autonomous helicopter.
Procurement of the non-recurring services are necessary in the integration and fielding of the Link-16 TDL technology into MQ-8C vehicles equipped with radars, the service branch said Tuesday in a presolicitation notice.
Link-16 datalink terminals are intended to help sensors transmit tactical information to military assets.
