Navy Strategic Comms

Abstract

The Shore to Ship Communication System develops communication elements which support the Navy's Nuclear Command, Control, and Communications (NC3) requirements, providing various communications infrastructure and elements from the regional Submarine Operating Authority (SUBOPAUTH) to the deployed strategic platform (fleet ballistic missile submarines). This portfolio of programs designs and develops shore-to-ship transmit and receive communications systems (i.e., Fixed Submarine Broadcast System (FSBS) and SUBOPAUTH Command, Control, and Communications (C3) Systems) in support of communications with all submarine types (i.e., SSN, SSGN, and SSBN). The Navy Strategic Communications Project responds to emerging E-6B Airborne Strategic Command, Control and Communications capability requirements by performing technical evaluations, modeling and simulation, investigative ground and flight testing, enhanced software modifications and development of configuration modifications. The E-6B is a manned airborne platform that provides survivable, endurable and reliable Command, Control and Communications capability in support of the President, Secretary of Defense and United States strategic and non-strategic forces. These efforts support follow-on aircraft modification procurements necessary to ensure interoperability in information-assured network-centric strategic environments.
