Talk:Joint Tactical Radio System

This is a good article with a lot of information in it. I would like to recommend that all of the SCA details be moved to the Software Communications Architecture article (which doesn't appear to exist, yet). We should also improve the division of information between the SDR article and this article, as well as ensuring that there are links in both directions. I apologize that I'm just a Wikipedia newbie and therefore am a little cautious to just jump in and begin making modifications of this magnitude. Perhaps some of the more experienced wikipedians can help out with this. --StoaksSW 02:27, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

Needs serious work or just a new label

This article really isnt so much about the joint tactical radio systems program as it is about software defined radios. Nowhere in the article do i encounter any informaion concerning the structure of the program, the 5 clusters and the reogrinization thereof, milestones completed or the teething problems th program had earlier on. I believe this article needs serious revamping or should simple be relabled to reflect the nature of its content.

I split out the SCA stuff into a separate article and added cluster info. It would help if you could point to info on program structure and reorg or add it yourself. --agr 12:27, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

Added criticism

It seems that many military project articles lack any discussion of criticism of the project - and that such criticism, when mentioned, is frequently removed by editors. Hopefully that won't be the case with my recent additions describing how this project is seriously overbudget and off schedule. The new project goals as of March 2006 significantly decrease the scope and "transformational" capability of the new radios. Much more in this vein could be added, however, and I encorage anyone with a decent reference to bring up the enormous cost of the radios, the security problems and the difficulty they will have interoperating with legacy radios once they're fielded.

Another good source for info on JTRS

If you have access to SIPR, there are two joint staff Intellipedia Wiki pages on JTRS - both the J8 and J6 have posted them and keep them updated. There you will find more info and a more unvarnished assessment of the program. Because they are on the SIPR, Industry cannot come in and sugarcoat the articles and all additions/deletions to the pages can be traced by to a registered user. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.75.101.66 (talk) 09:01, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

Link to the entry from the JTR disambiguation page

I'm reluctant to make the edit without consensus. Would a link to the term JTR for Joint Tactical Radio appropriately link to this wiki entry? It seems that JTRS is the formalization and future of the historical systems previously known under the term JTR. Thanks for your input. 75.57.160.195 (talk) 16:30, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

Canceled?

It seems that JTRS is being canceled. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.14.12.98 (talk) 17:32, 10 January 2012 (UTC)

It's a bit more complex than that. From your source "For all practical purposes, JTRS is dead, at least in its original guise."

And for a corpse they are quite lively

This is not true. The GMR portion has been cancelled (way back in November, in fact), but the other parts are moving forward. In fact, the handheld systems in particular have completed testing and are in initial production and deployment to Afghanistan. I also believe that the replacement for the GMR (MNVR) is still under the JTRS name. Also, this article is an incomprehensible mess. 204.11.191.251 (talk) 16:12, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

Program is, in fact, Cancelled

Information needs to be updated. [original talk text disputed below: Please use this article as reference. http://www.defenseindustrydaily.com/soldier-battle-jtrs-the-hms-radio-set-07536/ - It has a great timeline and needs to be integrated in this page.] Page needs to be structured differently. Talks about too many different programs in one page that is ONLY suppose to be about JTRS. March 2016 Morganoshell (talk) 13:24, 23 March 2016 (UTC)

The JTRS JPEO was formally disestablished in July 2012.

http://www.defenseindustrydaily.com/soldier-battle-jtrs-the-hms-radio-set-07536/ should never have been used as a reference. It is stereotypically journalistic and filled with inaccuracies and misleading information. It insists on calling things JTRS, such as "JTRS HMS" when the source material (such as the FBO RFI quote) never referred to JTRS at all, as that term has been deprecated (with the possible exception of MIDS JTRS program, which is run by the Navy, and is not really JTRS any longer, although the name is retained in certain contexts for historical reasons). Unfortunately, this article as it now stands is largely based on the defense industry daily reference, and so copies many of the same errors.

This article should be historical in nature, as the service programs that replace it are no longer referred to as JTRS (except as noted above for Navy MIDS). It should end with the restructuring in 2012, and follow on programs like HMS and others should have their own articles. Olynickjeff (talk) 15:35, 30 May 2019 (UTC)
