The first is com- munication, which provides enhanced capability to military aircraft to communicate both short and long distances with forces on the ground as well as ships and other aircraft. Secondly, there is navigation, which allows the exact position of an aircraft to be determined, both by means of external radio signals, Doppler speed sensors and landing systems. The third requirement is identification, which includes crash recorders, collision warning receivers and identification of friend or foe transponder and interrogator equipment.
