VK Integrated Systems (VKIS), a leading innovator in advanced tactical communication solutions, has completed a successful technology demonstration in collaboration with Silvus Technologies and Kagwerks at the Tough Stump 2023 Tech Rodeo. 

The demonstration showcased the integration of VKIS’s cutting-edge SmarTak inForce ATAK Plugin, paired with its SIOS-C electronic butt stock, operating on a Silvus Technologies MIMO radio network, featuring the Dismounted Operator’s Combat Kit (DOCK) developed by Kagwerks.


According to VKIS, the collaboration with Silvus Technologies and its advanced MIMO network technology played a crucial role in the success of the demonstration. Silvus’ MIMO network offers robust, high-performance connectivity even in challenging and dynamic environments, ensuring reliable and secure communication between team members. 

By leveraging its state-of-the-art technology, VKIS demonstrated the power of seamless data exchange and real-time collaboration in the field. Furthermore, the integration of Kagwerks’ DOCK showcased the comprehensive and ergonomic capabilities of the solution. DOCK provides dismounted operators with a versatile and efficient kit, allowing for streamlined access to mission-critical tools, equipment, and communication systems. 

According to the companies, the combination of VKIS’s SmarTak inForce ATAK Plugin with the SIOS-C electronic stock, the Silvus MIMO network, and the Kagwerks DOCK illustrated the potential for optimized communication and improved operational effectiveness in tactical scenarios.
