3.3	Headsets shall be useable in each craft to allow seamless transition between surface marine and airborne platforms.
3.3.1	The system shall include a crewmember PTT unit that connects to the headset worn by the crewman as well as the 6-Pin connection of the PRC-152A and the 13-Pin connection of the Harris RF-7800I boat crew communication system.
3.3.2	The system shall include a crewmember PTT unit that connects to the headset worn by the crewman as well as the 6-Pin connection of the PRC-152A and the 6-Pin connection of the GENTEX LVIS digital boat crew communication system.
3.3.3	The system shall include a crewmember PTT unit that connects to the headset worn by the crewman as well as the 6-Pin connection of the PRC-152A and the AP-107BRS connection of the Ultra-Graytronics boat crew communication system.
3.4	The system shall not have any electromagnetic disturbances that interrupt, obstruct, or otherwise degrade or limit the effective performance of the electronics/electrical equipment. (IAW COMDTINST 2450.1)
3.4.1	The headset shall not inhibit wearer from accessing features and functions of the boat crew communications system.
3.4.1.1	The intercom system shall be able to be listened to by any connected user wearing a headset.
3.4.1.2	The headset shall be able to disconnect from an intercom system and still operate while plugged into a handheld PRC-152A tactical radio in order to allow movement from the boat.
