Our comms architecture is a huge mess right now. The SRW is garbage, was identified as garbage when it first came out and they continued to push it, even to troops overseas. The mesh network means your radio is always broadcasting. Which means enemy can always triangulate position, which when done by the Russians, means they will call for fire on your entire grid square. I've been an OC for the Netwrok Integration Evaluation twice. The WIN-T is credited for making it possible for squads to maneuver before the PL can have a full grasp of situation, we should be doing that already through training. It's almost like there is this phrase that could mean an immediate action taken with minimal guidance or leadership.

Wow... I don't understand why this is so difficult and costly. This seems ridiculous.
