SSN-688 and Trident Modernization-MIP

Abstract

The Submarine Support Equipment Program develops and improves techniques, components, equipment, and systems that will increase submarine operational effectiveness, safety of ship, and survivability in the increasingly dense and sophisticated electromagnetic environment caused by the proliferation of complex radar, communications, and navigation equipment of potential adversaries. Improvements are necessary for Submarine Electronic Warfare Support (ES) systems to be operationally effective in the following mission areas: Joint Littoral Warfare; Joint Space and Electronic Warfare and Intelligence Collection; Maritime Protection; Information Operations, Special Operations Force (SOF) Support; and Joint Strike. Efforts include: (1) Integration of Surveillance, the technology developed and transitioned from the Advanced Submarine Support Equipment Program (ASSEP), project F0770 into the tactical ES system; (2) Resolution of software trouble reports during technology updates, from fleet feedback reports, and Submarine Warfare Federated Tactical System (SWFTS)/Non Propulsion Electronic System (NPES) Tactical Local Area Network (TACLAN) migrations; (3) Integration, test, and installation of COTS technology for system enhancements. The Electronic Warfare Support (ES) Development Projects include the development of: Low Probability of Intercept (LPI) Direction Finding (DF), Distant ES Support and Remote Log-In, Specific Emitter Identification (SEI) Improvements, ES Vulnerability Tool, Integrated ES and Radio Frequency Distribution Unit (RFDU), Capability and Technical Initiatives, and next generation processes and radar wideband miniaturization. Submarine Support Equipment Program was transfered from a Military Intelligence Program, Program Element (PE) 0304503N in Fiscal Year 2012 back to PE 0604503N.
