USAF rushing Battlefield Airborne Communications Node to Afghanistan
USAF chief of staff, Gen. Norton Schwartz, has made the Battlefield Airborne Communications Node (BACN) program his No. 1 project on the Air Force's unfunded requirements list in its fiscal 2010 budget.
The 2009 war supplemental appropriations bill has provisions to buy two BD-700 business jets that will be fitted with the BACN.
