MCWL Experiments with Tactical Edge Sensing Network at Resolute Dragon 25

The Marine Corps Warfighting Laboratory conducted experiments with a tactical edge sensing network during exercise Resolute Dragon 2025 (RD25), in Okinawa, Japan, Sept., 2025. The network provides a secure, scalable, and expeditionary communications backbone that enables tactical edge surface search and targeting capabilities across distributed Marine forces. It enables rapid, low-signature data exchange across sensors, C2 nodes, and fires networks in bandwidth-limited or contested environments. RD25 is an annual bilateral exercise across Japan, including the Southwest Islands, that strengthens the command control and multi-domain maneuver capabilities of the U.S. Marine Corps and the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force's Western Army personnel with a focus on controlling and defending key maritime terrain.
