E-2 Squadrons

Abstract

E-2 Improvements (0463) provides for incorporation of technologies for the evolution of E-2 Battle Management and Command and Control capabilities in support of naval warfare command and control requirements. It funds digital IP radio efforts as a surrogate to the Joint Tactical Radio System, machine-to-machine digital data communications, Advanced Digital Networking System, cooperative and non-cooperative identification, and open architecture hardware and software computing environments. These efforts have laid the foundation for growth to provide additional functional capabilities satisfying evolving operational requirements, e.g., Airborne Networking, Joint Sensor Netting and Track Management, Tactical Decision Aids, Advanced communications, and permits the evolutionary growth of a Combat Identification and Theater Air and Missile Defense Capability. Link-16/Cooperative Engagement Capability Interoperability Program funding is to address the most severe data link related interoperability issues. This will significantly improve the quality of the tactical surveillance picture, reduce the possibility of leakers, mitigate Blue on Blue engagements, and mis-identification of tracks. Provides stable sensor fusion foundation to support sensor/weapon coordination requirements. This program is funded under OPERATIONAL SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT because it includes development efforts to upgrade systems that have been fielded or have received approval for full rate production and anticipate funding in the current or subsequent fiscal year.
