A six-node encrypted LoRa mesh on the Indian ISM band, ATAK-linked. Built and field-tested.
[1] The Fabric
KTAF Advantages
KTAF, the Krath Tactical Adaptive Fabric, sits above the radios you already field and makes them act as one AI-coordinated network.
Encryption
AES-256-GCM with X25519 key exchange across every node and every link.
Mesh / MANET
Self-healing multi-path routing. The fabric reroutes around dead or jammed nodes.
Situational awareness
ATAK-native. Position, status, and Cursor-on-Target in one shared operational picture.
Transport-agnostic
LoRa, MANET WiFi, HaLow, LTE, SATCOM, SDR. Bridges VHF, UHF, HF, and BEL radios.
Jam resistance
Frequency agility and low-probability-of-intercept LoRa physics under contested RF.
RF awareness
Passive spectrum monitoring and jamming detection with direction estimation.
Sovereign by design
Indian source code, Indian-controlled servers, Indian supply chain.
Android / ATAK app
Run from a secure Android device. No new hardware to learn in the field.

How the mesh works
01
Squad mesh
Every node links to every other. No tower, no SIM, no signal required. The team carries its own network.
02
Airborne relay
A drone-borne relay bridges clusters split by ridgelines and distance. One relay replaces three to five ground nodes.
03
Reachback to command
Repeaters and IP bridges carry the mesh back to the control center over SATCOM or LTE. The field and C2 share one picture.

Deployed
Where the signal dies, the mesh lives.
Forests, mountains, disaster zones, contested frontiers. Built for the places the network never reached.
