Sierra Nevada Corporation (SNC) has unveiled TRAX Edge, a software platform built to improve how US forces share data across land, air, sea, space, and cyber domains.

TRAX Edge combines secure cloud architecture, edge computing, and artificial intelligence to create an adaptable, scalable framework for joint defense operations. 

The platform can integrate with more than 65 systems, connect through 15 radio links, and support over 20 messaging protocols.

It also includes more than 100 API plug-ins that enable real-time data exchange during live-fire exercises, combat operations, and intelligence missions.

Designed to comply with the Pentagon’s Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification standards, the software can be deployed on small edge devices or large enterprise cloud environments, delivering faster data transfer and stronger cybersecurity.

It can also be tailored for missions such as geospatial analysis and advanced data processing, giving operators flexibility to keep pace with shifting mission demands.

Advancing Joint All-Domain Ops

Developed as a software-as-a-service product, TRAX Edge aims to address one of the Pentagon’s enduring challenges: connecting legacy and modern systems for seamless, real-time communication across its networks.

SNC said the software is engineered to accelerate decision-making and improve interoperability.

The launch aligns with the department’s Joint All-Domain Command and Control (JADC2) initiative, which seeks to give commanders unified access to data from satellites, aircraft, ground units, ships, and cyber elements.

It also comes as the Pentagon continues to invest heavily in JADC2-related programs, even as progress remains uneven across the services.
