VINSON

 

VINSON

VINSON is a family of voice encryption devices used by U.S. and allied military and law enforcement, based on the SAVILLE encryption algorithm and 16 kbit/s CVSD audio compression. It replaces the Vietnam War-era NESTOR (KY-8/28/38) family.

VINSON devices include:

  • KY-57
  • KY-58
  • KY-68
  • KY-99
  • KYV-2
  • FASCINATOR

    VINSON is embedded into many modern military radios, such as SINCGARS. Many multi-algorithm COMSEC modules are also backwards-compatible with VINSON.
