Insitu announced recently that it has released the 2.0 version of its ICOMC2 small-footprint common command and control system.



The initial version was introduced in 2012, and allows a single operator to control multiple unmanned systems through an open-architecture design that can be customized. The 2.0 version includes a mission commander mode to increase situational awareness and which integrates with other command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (C4ISR) systems. This enables ICOMC2 to provide or receive tasking between ISR systems. It also has new video formats and a lower memory footprint for mobile applications. 



“ICOMC2 2.0 represents how Insitu is leading the way with small-footprint technology that is flexible and scalable,” says Ryan Hartman, senior vice president of Insitu programs. “This technology signifies a quantum leap for customers by providing a UAS system that can task, process, exploit, and disseminate information and effects to end users.”
