Christi Blair builds up connections while Cody Jack references a technical drawing for a Combat Network Communications Technology (CONECT) upgrade.The CONECT modification installs a digital communications infrastructure on the B-52 that allows the aircraft to communicate with the Air Force's digital communications network and tie in with Air Force command-and-control centers, ground forces and other platforms. One major upgrade is the aircraft's new ability to receive updated mission information and re-tasking data while in flight.
