“This ability will contribute to greater firefighter safety and a more efficient execution of their mission. Its interoperability capability even supports communication with National Guard and federal agencies equipment.”
Mike Greene, BAE Systems’ director of Homeland Security Solutions
“Through these grants, we have received desperately needed resources to equip our firefighters with some of the most effective technology available. The BAE Systems solution dramatically improves the communications capabilities for our fire service and the communities they serve.”

“The First InterComm system provided an affordable means to communicate with our surrounding communities. The solution has been especially useful in the true emergencies and working fires we have encountered in the past few weeks. The system has definitely helped to minimize risk to my personnel.”
Tom Talento

The system can be configured so that “my personnel can use their existing radio equipment when on scene and receive valuable information en route, allowing us to safely and correctly position our vehicles and maximizing our usefulness.”
