SSN Comb Cont Sys Imprvmnt (ENG)
Abstract
Project Unit 0236: This program develops Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) based software and hardware upgrades to integrate improved tactical and weapons control capabilities for multiple submarine Classes (SSN 688, SSGN, SEAWOLF, and VIRGINIA (Post Shakedown Availability). The AN/BYG-1 is the combat control system common across submarine platforms which incorporates tactical control, weapon control and tactical Local Area Network (LAN) functions into a single development program. The hardware upgrades (technology insertions (TI's) are developed on a biennial basis to provide improved capability and address COTS obsolescence. Funding also accommodates the biennial integration of software Advanced Processing Builds (APBs) for both tactical control (APB T) and weapon control (APB W) subsystems. The tactical control integration effort incorporates the integration of other sensor (ESM, sonar, radar, etc.) inputs to provide a common operation picture and improved situational awareness in an information assurance (IA) compliant environment. The weapon control development effort provides improvements to the weapons control subsystem based on improvements to missiles and torpedoes. AN/BYG-1 allows the submarine Navy to rapidly update the ship safety tactical picture, integrates the common tactical picture into the battlegroup, improves torpedo interfaces and provides Tactical TOMAHAWK (TOMAHAWK Block IV) capability. This program also develops and tests a Common Weapon Launcher, a COTS-based software weapons launch capability for Virginia Class submarines. This upgrade provides a more reliable capability for launching missiles and torpedoes from submarines while providing the architecture to support the introduction of the next generation of payloads and sensors. This new design will also reduce the recurring costs of VA Class submarine weapon launch systems.
