I think T-link is faster than Link 16 but it should be faster than 1MB sec data transfer.

The pod will be able to send data (video stream, targeting coordinates) to multiple receiver without using aircrafts own datalinks like Link 16, T-link, etc.

Great news indeed if true....and strangely enough it coincides with Lockheed Martin's a quite recent public debut of Sniper Networked Targeting pod. (16 November 2025)

'' new Sniper Networked Targeting Pod that pushes the long-serving system beyond traditional target tracking. Instead of treating the pod as a stand‑alone sensor, the company is recasting it as a connective hub that can move data rapidly between aircraft and other assets at the edge of combat operations.

Lockheed Martin is presenting the Sniper Networked Targeting Pod as a way to turn an existing targeting system into a critical node that can share information instead of simply collecting it. The company’s own description of the new configuration emphasizes that the pod is meant to sit at the center of a web of connections, rather than just feed a single cockpit.

The new Sniper configuration is intended to act as a bridge between aircraft and other assets, passing targeting data, sensor feeds, or other information without forcing every platform to carry its own bespoke communications suite. In effect, the pod becomes a modular way to bolt advanced connectivity onto aircraft that were never designed for it, which is especially attractive for air forces that operate mixed fleets.

Lockheed Martin’s own description of the Sniper evolution stresses that the pod now functions as a critical node that can help keep aircraft connected at the edge of operations, a role that goes beyond the traditional job of finding and tracking targets for a single crew. By explicitly tying the new capability to the long-serving Sniper Advanced Targeting Pod, or Sniper ATP, the company is signaling that the same hardware trusted for precision strikes is now being asked to shoulder a networking role as well. That continuity matters for operators who already understand the pod’s behavior and maintenance profile, but now want it to plug their jets into a broader digital architecture.''

Good find. Makes sense, Aselsan is taking the same direction.

This man is making me insane with his words.
Speaks about the quality of news in our beloved country and the sad part is people believe it.
Is this that git who said Kaan's weapon bays open and close in a "salise"? The one with the pointer? Because if he is, then that man belongs in a mental hospital with amount of bullshit he spouts. No need to share him here at all.

Oh and he also said atmosphere end at after 80 km and things float towards space, someone even shared that shite here, I remember that.

@Pokemonte13 , bro we had discussed this before in these pages and decided not to share any of his BS in the forum.
He is supposed to be a professor of something in some University and is also the black sheep of Iskenderun if you ask me.
He has no technical knowledge and lacks common sense. He doesn’t realise he makes a clown of himself with all the crap he spews out..

My advice to all members is to refrain from sharing such rubbish in the forum. It only downgrades the forum’s high standing.

We will delete these posts in a day or two.
