Procédure utilisée pour la transmission d'informations tactiques ou de défense aérienne entre les composantes d'un système global. Cette procédure peut se décomposer en : [1] transfert descendant : d'un niveau hiérarchique vers un niveau inférieur. [2] transfert latéral : entre niveaux hiérarchiques équivalents. [3] transfert ascendant : d'un niveau hiérarchique à un niveau supérieur. [4] transfert de recoupement : d'un niveau à un autre, voisin, et relatif aux pistes de ce voisin. [5] transfert par tiers interposé: d'un niveau à un autre en passant par l'intermédiaire d'un troisième utilisé comme relais. Ce dernier type est surtout utilisé dans une situation où les transmissions sont difficiles. 1, record 1, French, - transfert%20de%20pistes
