Tactical Cryptologic Systems
Abstract
The Shipboard Information Warfare (IW) line includes the Ships Signal Exploitation Equipment (SSEE) Increment (Inc) E, F and G programs that execute a major component of the Maritime Cryptologic Systems for the 21st Century. The SSEE program is a classified IW / Information Operations (IO) and tactical cryptologic system that subsequently provides critical tactical intelligence, situational awareness, battlespace awareness, indications and warnings, and hostile threat assessment. As a spiral acquisition program, Research, Development, Test & Evaluation (RDT&E) funding is required to have new technologies and associated new operational capabilities rapidly developed and transitioned as Pre-Planned Product Improvements (P3I) upgrades into the system's hardware/software configuration. These systems provide the battle group and combatant commanders with the surfaces fleet's only IO non-kinetic capabilities ("Finish"). In addition they provide the battle groups with real time indications and warnings by acquisition ("Find") and localization ("Fix") of Signals of Interest (SOI). This program's funding is required to incorporate P3I, new Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) based technologies and software into the existing systems. Funding will also focus on developing and delivering expanded non-kinetic IO capabilities and net-centric Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), which includes the development, integration and test of "Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) Executive Committee (EXCOM) Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) Executive Board IO Countermeasure Red Flash/Medusa (details classified) " and Paragon, a frequency extension and targeting enhancement, into SSEE Inc F and G programs. SSEE Inc F will be developing software and hardware upgrades in support of emergent adversary signals of interest and SSEE Inc G will integrate and improve upon all aspects of the "BMD EXCOM ASW CNO CEB IO Countermeasure Red Flash/Medusa" and Paragon, extending their range, automation, and integration into a coordinated IO weapon system. Graywing is an electronic sensing and attack capability that will be integrated into SSEE Inc E, F and G systems. It is a critical component of "BMD EXCOM ASW CEB IO Countermeasure Red Flash" with details held at a higher classification level. GRAYWING will commence the production of its Engineering Development Model (EDM) as well as its initial laboratory, integration, environmental and testing. Integrated Communications and Data System (ICADS) is a non-kinetic capability that can be rapidly developed to counter a serious threat to afloat units. ICADS provides a counter-Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance (ISR) capability against adversary sensor systems (specific development/capability details are held at a higher classification). Automatic Identification System (AIS) is an International Maritime Very High Frequency Communication system that allows any ship to exchange information (machine to machine) on Navigation (Position, Course, Speed, etc), Ship Info (Ship Name, Call Sign, Length/Beam), and Cargo Info (Draft, Type, Destination, Route, Estimated Time of Arrival) and Messaging (Safety, Text). This technology will improve capability in three diverse areas: (a) Situational Awareness/Common Operational Picture (b) Navigation/Safety of Ship and (c) Other intelligence gathering/correlation. Funding will support the integration of modified COTS AIS equipment with the existing Global Command and Control - Maritime/Common Operational Picture, navigation and bridge display capabilities, surface search / weapons systems and intelligence / Cryptologic capabilities Congressional Adds: Paragon(Frequency Extension) is a classified Navy tactical signals intelligence frequency extension capability that will be integrated into Ships Signal Exploitation Equipment (SSEE) Inc E and F programs. This capability provides simultaneous detection, collection, processing, Information Operations and display of communication intelligence data from hostile, high threat and adversary platforms in select frequency ranges that are not prosecuted or countered today. FY12 funding will incorporate further Pre-Planned Product Improvements (P3I), new Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) based technologies and software into SSEE Inc F and G. SSEE Inc F will be developing software and hardware upgrades in support of emergent adversary signals of interest. SSEE Inc G will be doing pre-acquisition research into software, hardware, and CYBER capabilities in support of Milestone B and the release of a Request for Proposal (RFP). Graywing will commence the production of its Engineering Development Model (EDM) as well as its initial laboratory, integration, environmental and testing. Funding will also focus on the continuation of efforts in support of the integration and testing of "BMD EXCOM ASW CEB IO Countermeasure Red Flash/Medusa," Paragon, and Graywing into SSEE Inc F and G.
