Situational Awareness Data Link (SADL)

Situational Awareness Data Link (SADL) is a secure communication system used by military aircraft to share real-time information about their positions, intentions, and other strategic data. It enhances coordination and safety by providing pilots and command centers with accurate, up-to-date awareness of the battlefield environment. SADL connects different aircraft and command units through a reliable digital link, ensuring everyone has a common understanding of the situation, which improves decision-making and reduces risks during operations.
