Tomahawk Mssn Planning Ctr
Abstract
The Tomahawk Weapons System (TWS) provides a Tomahawk cruise missile attack capability against targets on land (Tomahawk Land Attack Missile (TLAM)). The TLAM can be fitted with either conventional unitary warhead (TLAM/C), nuclear warhead (TLAM/N) or submunition dispenser (TLAM/D). This program ensures that the TWS exploits state-of-the-art technology to preserve the efficiency of this proven weapon system, and includes all missile development, mission planning system development, and submarine and surface ship weapons control system development. The Tactical Tomahawk (TACTOM) All-Up-Round Block IV missile is a comprehensive spiral baseline upgrade to the TWS that provides the tactical commander a quick reaction response capability as well as improved flexibility, increased accuracy and higher lethality. A five-year multi-year (FY04-FY08) production contract was awarded in August 2004 for the production of up to 2200 Block IV Tomahawk missiles. The essential upgrades of the Block IV missile are: improved guidance, navigation, control and mission computer two-way satellite communications, and a lower production cost as compared to the Block III missile. Block IV provides a UHF SATCOM data link to enable the missile to receive in-flight mission modification messages, to transfer health and status messages and to broadcast Battle Damage Indication (BDI) messages. Block IV also includes a high anti-jam GPS receiver, navigation improvements and associated antenna systems. The Tomahawk Program (A0545) also includes development of Torpedo Tube Launch (TTL) capability for submarines and the continuing advances identified as spiral development under the Tomahawk Baseline IV Operational Requirements Document (ORD), to include development of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS)-directed incorporation of Selective Availability Anti-Spoofing Module (SAASM) capability. Under the umbrella of the Tomahawk Command and Control System (TC2S), the Theater Mission Planning Center (TMPC) has evolved into scalable configurations deployed at the Cruise Missile Support Activities (CMSAs) (2), TSMPCs (Tomahawk Strike and Mission Planning Cells) (3), Carriers (CVNs) (11), Firing Units/DDGs/CGs (77), Command & Control (C2) Nodes (30), Training Sites (6), and Integration & Testing ((6) WPC & 5 other Labs), for a total of seven configurations at 135 sites. The Afloat Planning System (APS), a shipboard based version of TC2S, was migrated from CVNs to the TSMPCs in FY 2008. A smaller TC2S version is being fielded on CVNs to support deployed Strike Group Commanders. Systems fielded at the CMSAs and TSMPCs provide mission planning and employment support information for conventional TLAM, including the distribution of mission data and command information essential to TLAM employment via the Mission Distribution System (MDS) and associated communications infrastructure (CMSAs are the only organizations that can support TLAM-N). Development of Tactical Tomahawk capabilities in TMPC/APS/MDS includes software development, integration, test, and delivery, including support for TECHEVAL and OPEVAL, training development, installation planning, and simulation/model development required by COMOPTEVFOR to offset live missile flights in TECHEVAL and OPEVAL. This project also includes development related to national and tactical imagery architectures, as well as software development to decrease mission-planning time and increase the quality and accuracy of each mission for Block III and IV TLAM. The Tomahawk Weapons Control System provides launch capability for surface and submarine platforms. Development of the Tactical Tomahawk Weapons Control System (TTWCS) provides a common architecture to launch the Tactical Tomahawk Block IV and all variants in inventory. Development of upgrades to the Tactical Tomahawk Weapons Control System (TTWCS) is required to meet the DoD IT Standards Registry (DISR), to meet FORCEnet compliance and be Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) ready in order to remain interoperable within the Joint Service Architecture and to retain weapons system viability and usability for our Sailors. These efforts provide battle-group tactical flexibility and responsiveness while maximizing TWS wartime capability. The Tactical Tomahawk FY 09 and FY10 Congressional funding supporting the Cost Reduction Initiative (CRI) provides for development and implementation of an affordability process to identify, investigate, plan and execute viable cost reduction initiatives (CRIs) for the Tomahawk F415 engine. FY 08 and FY 09 Congressional funding for the Precision Terrain-Aided Navigation (PTAN) provides for the development and design maturation of the PTAN subsystem and provides expertise in integrating the PTAN into the Tomahawk Bock IV (AUR). The efforts support simulations, test missions development and integration of PTAN with the Tomahawk Block IV avionics. FY 09 Congressional funding for Image-Based Navigation provide analysis to assess reliability and performance of Image Navigation Reference Products in the TC2S. Additional funding received in FY10 will be added to the Phase 2.5 contract to support additional tasking in CONOPS development, hardware integration, and actual flight software development.

- Change Summary Explanation
- Technical: Not applicable. Schedule: The schedule for the software implementation of the SAASM features was shifted to align with the Tactical Tomahawk Weapons Control System (TTWCS) software version v5.4.0 development schedule. The four quarter difference between v5.4 and SAASM's IOC is for platform integration testing of SAASM once v5.4 is installed on the platforms. SAASM capability will be demonstrated on an Operational Test Launch (OTL) Flight Test. Launch Platform Integration covers integration of the Tomahawk Weapons System onto DDG-1000, VIRGINA Class, and SSGN platforms. TTWCS v5.3.6 - maintenance build to fix DT/OT IIID issues. TTWCS v5.4.0 - software build for DDG 112 integration. FY11 from previous President's Budget is shown as zero because no FY11-15 data was presented in President's Budget 2010.
