automatically counter infrared (IR) and
radio frequency (RF) threats.
f. The Command, Control,
Communications, Computers and
Intelligence/Communications,
Navigation, and Identification (C4I/CNI)
system provides the pilot with
unmatched connectivity to flight
members, coalition forces, and the
battlefield. It is an integrated subsystem
designed to provide a broad spectrum of
secure, anti-jam voice and data
communications, precision radio
navigation and landing capability, selfidentification, beyond visual range
target identification, and connectivity to
off-board sources of information. It also
includes an inertial navigation and
global positioning system (GPS) for
precise location information. The
functionality is tightly integrated within
the mission system to enhance
efficiency.
g. The aircraft C4I/CNI system
includes two data links, the MultiFunction Advanced Data Link (MADL)
and Link 16. The MADL is designed
specifically for the F-35 and allows for
stealthy communications between F35s. Link 16 data link equipment allows
the F-35 to communicate with legacy
aircraft using widely-distributed J-series
message protocols.
h. The F-35 Autonomic Logistics
Global Sustainment (ALGS) provides a
fully integrated logistics management
solution. ALGS integrates a number of
functional areas, including supply chain
management, repair, support
equipment, engine support, and
training. The ALGS infrastructure
employs a state-of-the-art information
system that provides real-time, decisionworthy information for sustainment
decisions by flight line personnel.
Prognostic health monitoring
technology is integrated with the air
system and is crucial to predictive
maintenance of vital components.
i. The F-35 Operational Data
Integrated Network (ODIN) provides an
intelligent information infrastructure
that binds all the key concepts of ALGS
into an effective support system. ODIN
establishes the appropriate interfaces
among the F-35 Air Vehicle, the
warfighter, the training system,
government information technology (IT)
systems, and supporting commercial
enterprise systems. Additionally, ODIN
provides a comprehensive tool for data
collection and analysis, decision
support and action tracking.
j. The F-35 Training System includes
several training devices to provide
integrated training for pilots and
maintainers. The pilot training devices
include a Full Mission Simulator (FMS)
and Mission Rehearsal Trainer (MRT).
VerDate Sep<11>2014

The maintainer training devices include
an Aircraft Systems Maintenance
Trainer (ASMT), Ejection System
Maintenance Trainer (ESMT), Outer
Mold Line (OML) Lab, Flexible Linear
Shaped Charge (FLSC) Trainer, F135
Engine Module Trainer, Weapons
Loading Trainer (WLT), and other
training devices. The F-35 Training
System can be integrated, where both
pilots and maintainers learn in the same
Integrated Training Center (ITC).
k. Other subsystems, features, and
capabilities include the F-35’s low
observable air frame, Integrated Core
Processor (ICP) Central Computer,
Helmet Mounted Display System
(HMDS), Pilot Life Support System
(PLSS), Mission Planning System
Environment (MPSE), and publications/
maintenance manuals. The HMDS
provides a fully sunlight readable, biocular display presentation of aircraft
information projected onto the pilot’s
helmet visor. The use of a night vision
camera integrated into the helmet
eliminates the need for separate Night
Vision Goggles. The PLSS provides a
measure of Pilot Chemical, Biological,
and Radiological Protection through use
of an OnBoard Oxygen Generating
System (OBOGS) and an escape system
that provides additional protection to
the pilot. OBOGS takes the Power and
Thermal Management System (PTMS)
air and enriches it by removing gases
(mainly nitrogen) by adsorption, thereby
increasing the concentration of oxygen
in the product gas and supplying
breathable air to the pilot. The MPSE
provides a mission planning, mission
briefing, and a maintenance/
intelligence/tactical debriefing platform
for the F-35.
2. The Reprogramming Center is
located in the United States and
provides F-35 customers a means to
update F-35 electronic warfare
databases.
3. The highest level of classification of
defense articles, components, and
services included in this potential sale
is SECRET.
4. If a technologically advanced
adversary were to obtain knowledge of
the specific hardware and software
elements, the information could be used
to develop countermeasures that might
reduce weapon system effectiveness or
be used in the development of a system
with similar or advanced capabilities.
5. A determination has been made
that the United Arab Emirates can
provide substantially the same degree of
protection for the sensitive technology
being released as the U.S. Government.

listed in this transmittal are authorized
for release and export to the
Government of the United Arab
Emirates.
