A high-speed, mobile connectivity capability aimed at dramatically increasing joint commanders' access to operational information on the battlefield will enter service in Europe and Iraq later this year. The Command and Control on the Move (C2OTM) system will provide joint commanders with a satellite-based mobile broadband service as they move around the battlefield, giving them access to the same information available at a fixed joint task force headquarters. The first customers for C2OTM will be the U.S. Army's V Corps, which will start taking deliveries in July, and the Multi-National Force-Iraq, scheduled to begin receiving the equipment in October.
