Technically Speaking Podcast - Episode 31 - Battle ready technology within the JLTV (Ep. 31) In this episode, we explore how NIWC Atlantic engineers are transforming the Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV) into a fully mission-ready platform for the modern battlefield. Guests Jenny Bennett and Catherine Lobb, NIWC Atlantic Integrated Project Team (IPT) leads, walk us through how their IPTs enhance JLTVs with advanced C5ISR capabilities—command, control, communications, computers, cyber, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance—ensuring our warfighters have secure connectivity and adaptable technology in any environment. From upgrading base models to prototyping next-generation Navy trucks, their work exemplifies how science, engineering, and innovation directly support operational readiness across all military branches. Additionally, they explain how their systems within the JLTVs are used to test additional projects at NIWC Atlantic, such as underwater submarine communications. We also hear from Staff Sergeant Irene Suarez, who shares her perspective on how technology connects to real-world missions and the Marines who depend on it. If you’re interested in how cutting-edge engineering and cyber integration fuel the Navy’s information warfare advantage, this episode is for you.
