Abstract :
A practical application of interoperability, the Icelandic Air Defense System (IADS), is introduced. The author presents an overview of IADS followed by an explanation of its operations concept and the resulting data link connectivity. He then summarizes with a review of interoperability improvements provided by IADS and provides some insight into challenge for the future. The data links required to support the IADS mission are depicted. IADS is required to interface using 11 different data link formats with the option of adding three or more formats as growth
