Pacific Defense launches NEXUS C2/electromagnetic warfare mission system

Pacific Defense announced the launch of NEXUS, a Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) mission system that converges command and control, communications, networking, edge computing, and electronic warfare on a common, adaptable architecture. Built on a Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA) aligned to SOSA, CMOSS and OpenVPX, NEXUS enables mission-specific configurations across mobile, fixed-site, maritime, and airborne operations. NEXUS converges EW and C5ISR in one, open-architecture system for missions across ground, maritime, and airborne operations. NEXUS brings capabilities traditionally integrated through separate systems onto a common chassis, power, timing, processing, and networking foundation, providing shared infrastructure for C2 and EW mission capabilities. NEXUS uses an open, modular architecture to integrate government, Pacific Defense, and third-party technologies on a common foundation. Its COTS product approach enables customers to insert and upgrade capabilities as technology and mission requirements change. Mission-specific NEXUS configurations bring together multi-waveform C2, resilient networking, spectrum awareness, geolocation, AI/ML processing, and electronic attack in a single system. Common services support secure communications, standardised data exchange, over-the-air reprogramming and high-speed data movement, while the modular architecture supports assured PNT and the addition of new hardware, software, and mission applications. “The threat and technology environment is evolving too quickly for mission systems to remain fixed after they are fielded,” said Travis Slocumb, CEO of Pacific Defense. “NEXUS brings communications, sensing and electronic warfare together on an open architecture designed for continuous technology insertion. It gives customers a COTS mission system they can configure for today’s requirements and continue upgrading as new technologies and capabilities become available.” For Editorial Inquiries Contact: Editor Kym Bergmann at [email protected] For Advertising Inquiries Contact: Group Sales Director Simon Hadfield at [email protected]
