SciTec<\/strong>, a Firefly Aerospace<\/strong> company, has been selected by the U.S. Department of the Air Force (DAF) Command, Control, Communications, and Battle Management (PAE C3BM) to deliver the operational data fusion system for the U.S. Air Force\u2019s Cloud-Based Command and Control (CBC2) program. The $5.5 million option was executed as part of an initial $24 million award in 2024 under the Advanced Battle Management System (ABMS) indefinite delivery\/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract. As part of the initial contract, SciTec participated in a multi-year competition wherein SciTec\u2019s data fusion system was evaluated and selected from among multiple industry and government-owned alternatives. SciTec\u2019s cloud-based data fusion system ingests military and civilian data feeds and fuses them with additional sources for enhanced command-and-control warfighting capabilities.<\/p>\n \u201cI am incredibly proud of the dedication our team has shown in reaching this milestone,\u201d said Stephen Purcell<\/strong>, Director of SciTec\u2019s All Domain Solutions portfolio<\/strong>. \u201cSupporting the CBC2 mission is a responsibility of the highest order. We understand the complexity of the challenge and the vital importance of providing our warfighters with a clear, unified picture of the battlespace. We look forward to continuing our deep and productive engagement with the DAF PAE C3BM team as we work together to deliver the resilient, high-speed decision advantage necessary for modern homeland defense.\u201d<\/p>\n CBC2 is a major component of the DAF Battle Network, which is the DAF contribution to Combined Joint All-Domain Command and Control (CJADC2) warfighting system. The CBC2 battle management system supports the Homeland Defense mission by providing situational awareness for North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD), United States Northern Command (USNORTHCOM), and Pacific Air Forces (PACAF).<\/p>\n \u201cCBC2 represents a leap forward in quickly integrating and continuously delivering new battle management software tools into the hands of NORAD and USNORTHCOM as well as PACAF warfighters,\u201d said now Lt. Gen. Luke Cropsey<\/strong>, Military Deputy, Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics, in his prior role as DAF C3BM program executive officer. \u201cThe program is using modern agile software methodologies to revolutionize how the DAF approaches battle management in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" SciTec, a Firefly Aerospace company, has been selected by the U.S. Department of the Air Force (DAF) Command, Control, Communications, and Battle Management (PAE C3BM) to deliver the operational data fusion system for the U.S. Air Force\u2019s Cloud-Based Command and Control (CBC2) program.
