    AN/ARC-231A RT-1987

    Very-High Frequency and Ultra-High Frequency


    (VHF/UHF) airborne communications system

    The AN/ARC-231A RT-1987 is BAE Systems’ newest generation


    of multi-band, multi-mission, airborne communications system
    with a modernized NSA, Type 1 embedded cryptographic
    solution. The Software Communications Architecture (SCA)/
    Software-Defined Radio (SDR) design of the RT-1987 provides
    a design reserve capacity for software-only deployment of
    future operational, mission, and end user deployment focused
    configurability. The RT-1987 is a fully backward compatible,
    drop in SDR replacement that includes all RT-1808A control
    interfaces, both federated and Flight Management System
    (FMS) functions and requires no other changes for existing
    integrated platforms. It duplicates the communications
    capabilities of its predecessor with the same set of Electronic
    Counter-Counter Measures (ECCM) capabilities (HAVE QUICK,
    SATURN, and SINCGARS), and UHF SATCOM modes (DAMA
