Sub Combat System Improvement (ADV)
Abstract
The Submarine Combat System Improvement (Advanced) (Non-ACAT) Project addresses technology challenges to improve tactical control in littoral and open ocean environments for a variety of operational missions including peacetime engagement, surveillance, battle space preparation, deterrence, regional sea denial, precision strike, task group support, and ground warfare support. These technologies, developed by Navy technology bases, the private sector, ONR, FNC, and DARPA are then transitioned. Prototype hardware/software systems are developed to demonstrate technologically promising system concepts in laboratory and at-sea submarine environments. The Advanced Sensor development program develops and tests new sensors and demonstrates large array configurations. Current efforts are directed at Towed Array sensor technologies, telemetry, and architecture, to improve reliability and performance while decreasing program life cycle costs. For large array configurations, Conformal Acoustic Velocity Sonar (CAVES), Wide Aperture Array (WAA), Large Vertical Aperture (LVA) and Large Flank Array (LFA) technologies are also being pursued. The focus of sensor processing technology efforts through the APB program will address improvements in imaging, tactical control, Electronic Warfare (EW) and acoustics, including detection, localization, classification, ranging, tracking, situational awareness, tactical decision aides, command decision support tools and displays and other functions essential to mission success. APB will also develop capabilities related to Unmanned Aerial and Undersea Vehicles and automated technologies specific to CRIKT. Technologies and/or capabilities developed under this Project will be shared, as applicable to reduce costs and optimize reuse, with development programs for surface ship sonar, Advanced Capability Build (ACB) and surveillance platforms, Advanced Surveillance Build (ASB). ACB and APB are managed under a common development process titled AxB. While each platform retains its uniqueness and focus in functional domains essential to mission success, a premium is placed on development of common capabilities and modular architecture technologies to maximize commonality and cost effectiveness. This Project will also participate in, and take advantage of, the Tactical Advancements for the Next Generation (TANG) initiative that utilizes Commercial Industrial Design Thinking methodologies to engage the Fleet in generating innovative improvement concepts for Submarine and Surface systems.
