Combat System Integration
Abstract
Project 0164: Combat System Integration: COMNAVSEASYSCOM (SEA 05H) is assigned central Navy responsibility for interoperability, directing the development of policy and architecture for Strike Force (SF) warfare systems engineering and implementation of a common warfare systems engineering process. Furthermore, SEA 05H provides top level direction and execution for certification and assessments which support capability and quality for ships and submarines. SEA 05H has developed processes and tools including the establishment of a force-level warfare systems engineering process, stewardship of the introduction of Combat Systems, Command, Control, Computers, Communications and Intelligence (C5I) modernization and improvement into the Fleet Response Plan (FRP), Command & Control, Communications, Computers, & Combat Systems Integration Modernization Process (C5IMP), configuration management and certification processes, and force-level interoperability assessments using the Distributed Engineering Plant (DEP) land-based testing tool. This project funds the core elements required to conduct Test Bed Validation (TBV) and Warfare Systems Integration and Interoperability Testing (WSI2T) in accordance with the Naval Warfare Systems Certification Policy (NWSCP), Joint NAVSEA, NAVAIR, and SPAWAR SYSCOM Instruction. This project funds SF configuration management through the FRP shore based testing and WSI2T certification of operational computer systems in a test environment similar to their ultimate shipboard operational environment, and interoperability assessments (IA) which are a prerequisite for operational certification of the ships in SF configurations prior to their deployment. Force certification of deploying ships in SF configurations is accomplished through the utilization of the Navy's DEP, which provides operational configurations for all naval combat systems located at multiple Navy land-based sites located across the country and connected via networking technology. The DEP provides the only opportunity for comprehensive interoperability testing of combat system and C5I configuration items prior to shipboard delivery for operational use in surface combatant platforms and strike group units. It is a U.S. Fleet Forces Command requirement that all SFs undergo interoperability assessment testing in the DEP prior to deployment. Further, the DEP provides the mechanism to support the Navy's participation in the joint testing environments as well as the coalition forces through the Combined Forces Battle Laboratories (CFBL) network to allow for assessments of both Joint and Coalition interoperability. Program focus is on new systems, platforms under development.
