Fleet Tactical Development
Abstract
The Communications Automation Program - This project is a continuing program that provides for automation and communications upgrades for fleet tactical users. It includes Battle Force Tactical Networks (BFTN) (formerly High Frequency Internet Protocol/Sub Network Relay), Joint Aerial Layer Network-Maritime (formerly Maritime Aerial Layer Network (MALN)). The Battle Force Tactical Network (BFTN) on each surface, subsurface, air, or fixed US Navy platform uses previously installed/ existing Line of Sight (LOS)/Extended Line of Sight (ELOS) radios (a.k.a. Radio Frequency (RF)) to create a secure gateway that inter-connects all users into a common RF Tactical Network (a.k.a. wireless). This Network separately supports US-Only and Allied/Coalition users' tactical data information exchanges on each platform (node) between and/or across separately dispersed RF Networks even if SATCOM channels to shore are lost during an Anti-Access Area Denial (A2AD) event. JALN-M is the Navy implementation of the JALN architecture which provides assured communications in any environment, especially A2AD. With disruption or loss of Space tier comms, JALN-M establishes and/or restores connectivity within the High Capacity Backbone (HCB) tier, the, Distribution Access Range Extension (DARE) tier, and the Transition tier in accordance with the JALN Initial Capabilities Document and the JALN Analysis of Alternatives (AoA) Final Report. JALN-M is a robust, assured communications capability providing Joint connectivity via the HCB and Navy platform connectivity via a pseudo satellite DARE capability. JALN-M will use the Extended Data Rate (XDR) waveform for intra-battle group comms, a Common Data Link (CDL) waveform for the HCB cross-link capability, and will leverage enhanced UHF/HF waveforms for coalition connectivity. FY14 BFTN enhancements (BFTN(e)) funds will be used to continue to develop acquisition and system engineering documentation in support of an RDT&E contract, and completion of demonstration tests, modem and controller enginering change for increased data rates, interface design development and integration for network application.

- Change Summary Explanation
- Battle Force Tactical Network (BFTN) funding was added for hardware modifications for increased bandwidth and software update to upgrade routability; as well as engineering services to accomplish Quality of Service (QoS) and interaction with Automated Digital Network System (ADNS) and Combined Enterprise Regional Information Exchange System - Maritime (CENTRIXS-M) Local Area Networks (LANs). BFTN baseline system was previously funded in FY11 for Operational Assessment (OA) event. Implement JALN-M development beginning in FY13.
