Its fixed formatted-TACFIRE messages are backward compatible with the present Airborne Target Handover System (ATHS-ECP5), CP-1516A/ASQ.

The interface to the avionics systems is via the MIL-STD-1553B multiplex data bus. The user interface is via a Multi-Function Display (MFD) and Data Entry Keyboard (DEK). The IDM provides four (4) half-duplex radio channels, capable of data transmission rates of 75 to 16K bits per second. Simultaneous reception or transmission is allowed on any of the four (4) radios. Each of the channels is capable of being configured into one (1) of three (3) different communications ports: Analog, Digital and Secure. The IDM supports the following digital data link protocols: Army Tactical Fire (TACFIRE), and Air Force Application Program Development (AFAPD).

66. System Interoperates With: The IDM is capable of receiving and transmitting using existing tactical Army radios. The capability of the IDM to communicate utilizing the TACFIRE, AFAPD, and MTS digital data link protocols provides the IDM with interoperability capability with the following systems: ATHS, IDM 304, Battlefield Computer System (BCS), Digital Message Device (DMD), Forward Observer System (FOS), and Advanced Field Artillery Tactical Data System (AFATDS).
