On Bastille Day 2025, France celebrated more than its national pride ; it showcased the operational excellence of its elite military units in a live demonstration featuring renowned TV host Denis Brogniart and actor Tomer Sisley. As they joined a tactical unit of the French Special Forces for an immersive experience, a key piece of mission-critical technology accompanied them: the Airlink 3085 headset system from Globalsys.
This high-profile demo was more than ceremonial. It gave the public a rare inside look at how modern military communication systems enhance coordination, responsiveness and situational awareness in high-stakes environments. Whether onboard aircraft, during ground maneuvers or in complex urban settings, reliable audio communication is essential. The Airlink 3085 delivers this through a rugged, hands-free, full-duplex solution.
Tactical communication in high-noise environments
During the demonstration, the commandos were tasked with executing a rapid assault scenario involving close-quarter combat, extractions and precision timing. Brogniart and Sisley, both equipped with Globalsys Airlink 3085 headsets, experienced first-hand the critical role audio clarity plays in synchronizing movements under pressure. Designed for noisy and demanding environments, the Airlink 3085 uses advanced radio communication protocols and robust signal processing to ensure uninterrupted communication.
Designed to meet the operational needs of military, naval and critical aviation teams, this headset solution integrates seamlessly into modern tactical systems. It operates in both VHF and UHF bands, supports full-duplex communications and offers passive noise protection, essential in aircraft engine zones and high-decibel combat conditions.
Enhancing mission success through embedded technology
The Airlink 3085 is more than a headset. It is a fully embedded communications architecture that can adapt to multiple mission profiles. Featuring encrypted transmission channels, long battery life and smart energy management, it is designed for tactical reliability in all operational theatres.
Its robust frame supports electromagnetic resistance, compatibility with NATO-standard emitters and receivers, and seamless interfacing with vehicle intercoms, airborne radios and wearable communication nodes. Whether operating in a Dassault Rafale fighter, a helicopter, or coordinating ground logistics for fighter jet refueling, the Airlink 3085 supports voice clarity and connection stability.
