Canadian Commercial Corporation (CCC) has announced a landmark contract with the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) to provide Tactical/Manpack Near Vertical Incidence Skywave (NVIS) antennas to the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime. These advanced antennas, manufactured by Valcom Manufacturing in Guelph, Ontario, are specifically designed to ensure dependable battlefield communication in demanding and challenging environments.
Enhanced Tactical Communication for the U.S. Military
