Delivering next-gen interoperable tactical communications for a new era in mission success

SAN DIEGO – February 19, 2025 – Cubic DTECH Vocality, Instant Connect Software, and Rally Tactical Systems (RTS) are breaking new ground with the integration of Instant Connect EnterpriseTM (ICE) as the encrypted end-to-end and transport layer security wrapper for tactical push-to-talk traffic. The Joint Interoperability Test Command (JITC)-certified software platform is included on the DoD Information Network (DoDIN)-approved product list.

The ICE platform is a proven, military-grade tactical communications solution that integrates with RTS’ Engage Engine and Cubic’s Radio Over IP (RoIP) gateways, including the DTECH Vocality RoIP, M3X and M3-SE, enabling special operations teams worldwide to leverage the blended solution capability for multilingual missions.

“Our platform is secure and accurate, giving warfighters a decisive advantage in coalition peacekeeping, enforcement, and other missions,” said Forrest Claypool, Instant Connect CEO. “Special operations teams know that ICE allows them to extend the language translation capability to remote environments at the tactical edge. It’s about providing teams with the communications flexibility they need when seconds matter.”
