BIFF selected

Article Abstract:

The multi-national Combat Identification Working Group (CIA) has recommended an adoption of the Question & Answer Ka-band (33-40 GHz) technology as the best and cost effective solution for Battlefield Identification Friend or Foe (BIFF). CIA was created by France and Germany with the UK and US to evaluate several different solutions for BIFF systems and suggest the prime approach in view of a potential standardized decision. The BIFF programme is designed to equip the AFVs in service with the four major NATO armies with a common IFF system or fully interoperable.
