CENTREVILLE, Va., June 03, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Parsons Corporation (NYSE: PSN) announced today the upgrade of the Department of Defense’s airborne mission planning software, C2Core® Air, with a new cloud-native, web-based client sharing capability that unlocks the full power of cloud computing for combat operations, enhances the operator’s quick reaction capabilities, and significantly reduces mission planning timelines.

“We’re excited to continue supporting our defense customers with technology that increases their mission effectiveness, enables faster and more sophisticated full-spectrum planning, and integrates an actionable intelligence database that empowers combat capability in all-domain environments,” said Drew Decker, Parsons vice president of the mission software factory. “New capabilities include planning for air location, attack, escort, ground alert, and reconnaissance mission types, as well as management of all friendly order of battle resource information to include tactical information.”
C2Core® is a Parsons-developed Joint All-Domain Command and Control (JADC2) capability currently being used by the U.S. Air Force Air Combat Command, U.S. Navy, Air National Guard, USSTRATCOM, 16th Air Force, Royal Australian Air Force, Royal Canadian Air Force, and New Zealand Defence Force.
