ASW Systems Development - MIP

Abstract

The mission of Airborne ASW Intelligence (AAI) (CNO Project K-0416) is to provide advanced Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) capabilities through development of new technology and prototype mechanisms for the collection and analysis of ASW related intelligence. This includes full spectrum intelligence collections, analysis, and cataloging of current peer and near peer adversaries. The program develops and deploys disruptive technologies to counter emerging threats in order to maintain the United States' current undersea warfare superiority. AAI employs systems such as the Mighty Orion and Anti-Submarine Warfare Mission Planning and Reconstruction Systems (AMPRS) to support the Tasking, Collection, Processing, Exploitation, and Dissemination (TC/PED) of passive and active intelligence measurements of current and next generation submarine vulnerabilities. The AAI data collection program provides full spectrum, measured intelligence data essential for the design and development of advanced sensors, weapon systems, environmental models, and tactical decision aids by using currently fielded sonobuoy systems; developing the Passive Extended Range Sonobuoy System; and providing prototype AN/SSQ-113 Naval Underwater Active Multi-ping family of sensors to collect active target strength measurement data for the Intelligence Community. AAI collection systems are installed and employed on uniquely configured platforms, specially configured ground support facilities, ships, and other assets as required for the collection, processing, exfiltration, and dissemination of undersea intelligence. AAI develops advanced components and system prototype for advanced detection and tracking systems, specially designed sensors, advanced processing systems and techniques, and specially derived tactics. This is a Military Intelligence Program (MIP). JUSTIFICATION FOR BUDGET ACTIVITY: This program is funded under ADVANCED COMPONENT DEVELOPMENT AND PROTOTYPES because it includes all efforts necessary to evaluate integrated technologies, representative models or prototype systems in a high fidelity and realistic operating environment.

Document Details

• Document Type: R2 Budgetary Justification
• Publication Date: Oct 01, 2024
• Source ID: 0303354N_4_1319_PB_2024
• Change Summary Explanation: FY 2024 increased since the previous President's Budget submission by $0.018M to account for inflationary and working capital fund rate adjustments. PB24 schedule reflects completion of the Furious Krypton effort in FY23. The PERSS line has been broken out into Design Development phase that ends in FY26 and Prototype Procurement beginning FY27. Fielding/Capability milestone has been added to 1Q FY28 due to transition of the Office of Naval Research Future Naval Capabilities Extended Range - Directional Finding and Recording (ER-DIFAR) to a lower technology readiness level that necessitate addition of significant development activities. Active NUAMP line reflects prototype procurement throughout FYDP; Active NUAMP Design Development has been broken out to show effort completes FY24. Test and Evaluation line has been broken out into Integrated Testing ending in FY24 and ER-DIFAR Qualification Testing beginning in FY25. ER-DIFAR Integration Testing beginning in FY26 and ending in FY27. Supply chain issues and material shortages have delayed FY22 NUAMP prototype delivery. Quantity of 72 (FY22 qty 36 and FY23 qty 36) will deliver 4Q FY23.
