MCS2090VP
Multi-Waveform C2 Mission System

The MCS2090VP is a Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA) solution that maximizes access to multi-vendor technology and provides more flexibility in upgrading and fielding new technologies. A Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) multi-waveform command and control (C2) mission system aligned with the CMOSS, SOSA™, and OpenVPX™ technical standards represents a significant step forward in the Army’s efforts to modernize its C2, communication and electronic warfare capabilities. 

As a part of Pacific Defense’s Networked and Encrypted Resilient Versatile Engine (NERVE) family of systems, the MCS2090VP provides scalable compute and communication to support multi-echelon, radio cross-banding, and simultaneous voice and data communications. Such support, as well as critical interoperability and redundancy, is achieved using communication waveforms hosted on CMOSS based tactical radios and single board computers. Built around Silvus’ MN-MIMO and TrellisWare TSM™ field-tested waveform technologies, the MCS2090VP enables advanced, resilient communication with an SBU-E (Sensitive but Unclassified - Encrypted) network at the tactical edge to ensure commanders have a common operating picture even in disrupted environments.
