DCGS-A Tactical Ground Station

The vehicle-mounted Tactical Ground Station (TGS) is part of the Distributed Common Ground System-Army (DCGS-A), the Army's primary capability for posting, processing and distributing real time intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) information to intelligence analysts and commanders.

Like finding a needle in a haystack, TGS allows intelligence analysts to comb through millions of classified and unclassified records and within moments inform commanders about changes taking place around them.

TGS systems are deployed to forward operating bases worldwide, providing U.S. military and coalition commanders with a clear picture of emerging and imminent threats, commanders can quickly make decisions that could save military and civilian lives.

DCGS-A Highlights:

• TGS is approved for full deployment throughout the U.S. Army
• The system replaces nine separate ‘stove-piped' legacy systems
• Soldiers can access their authorized intelligence information from their computer or mobile device as needed
