aXiom by Tachyon™ Delivers 2Mbps Upload Speeds for
Airborne
C4ISR Missions
Real-time Beyond-Line-of-Sight Full Motion Video Transfer Enabled for U.S. Army Airborne
Comms-on-the-Move
 aXiom 9300 Terminal meets the
SWAP requirements for the U.S.
Army's airborne ISR programs. Tachyon's aXiom 7000 Series systems, including on-board hardware, ground infrastructure, space segment and network management and monitoring, offer an end-to-end, technology-agnostic approach to Comms-on-the-Move (COTM). aXiom systems have been designed for deployment on specific aircraft types including C-12, C-17 and C-130. Because Tachyon offers a technology-agnostic approach, multiple modems can be integrated and used over Ka, Ku, L and X-bands, making aXiom systems adaptable to most fixed-wing aircraft, UAVs, rotor wing aircraft, ground vehicles and maritime vessels. This enables seamless information interchange among networks, providing for an all-encompassing approach to advanced Intelligence, Reconnaissance and Surveillance (ISR) missions.
The aXiom 7300 Airborne Network has been deployed and is operational in-theater in Afghanistan for the US Army's C-12 aircraft fleet, delivering >2Mbps data rates off the plane…more than twice the previous solution!

Meeting the Needs of the U.S. Military
 18" Ku-band antenna used
for the MARSS program. Responding to U.S. Military requirements for a fully-managed end-to-end solution that can deliver multi-megabit upload speeds off an aircraft in flight, Tachyon integrated the aXiom 9300 Terminal with an embedded modem router board, a Ku-band 18" Mobile Satellite Antenna Subsystem, and an Inertial Reference Unit (IRU). In addition, Tachyon acquired space segment capacity and built ground infrastructure in-theater to meet the needs of the U.S. Army's Task Force Odin-A.
The outcome of this effort is the aXiom 7300 Integrated Airborne Network Solution. The aXiom 7300 has been used during multiple C4ISR missions, during which real-time full-motion video was streamed from aircraft together with Communications Intelligence (COMINT) and Signal Intelligence (SIGINT), and displayed in real-time on monitoring terminals on the ground.
