Abstract
This paper presents a candidate transport protocol that is being developed to provide reliable data transfer over tactical communications systems. The paper addresses data transport requirements, protocol comparisons, and baseline protocol modifications. The modifications include improvements in communications efficiency for large or small messages and communications reliability within a tactical internet. The baseline protocol selection is the block transfer protocol NETBLT
