Electronic Combat Intelligence Support
Abstract
This program expedites Information Superiority (IS) Technology transition from laboratory, industry, and academia to operational platforms including the Network Attack System (NAS) via studies, rapid prototyping, technology demonstrations and other RDT&E efforts. Program efforts directly support the AF Information Operations Capabilities Plan (IOCP) and the DoD Information Operations (IO) Roadmap. The program office investigates and selects the highest potential IO technologies to meet specific shortfalls, deficiencies, and requirements documented by major commands (MAJCOMs), unified commands, and IO agencies in Mission Area Plans (MAPs) and capabilites documents. In accordance with AF Policy on IO, the IS core capability areas to be considered are influence operations, electronic warfare operations and network warfare operations. Planned areas of study, prototyping, and technology demonstration include, but are not limited to, exploitation of networks, telephony, Integrated Air Defense Systems (IADS), electronic warfare operations, Command and Control Systems, and applying the latest advancements in emerging physics, electronic warfare, communications, directed energy, electronic sensors, and intelligence to IS. These advancements will be used to develop and deliver cutting edge technologies to the warfighter. The program office works directly with labs, industry, and warfighters to set priorities and find synergistic combinations of new technology, doctrine and training via multiple Network Warfare Operations Capablity (NWOC) contract awards to deliver state of the art IO tools to the warfighter as well as to engineer key upgrades and modifications to the NAS. Program efforts will be prioritized and guided by the Information Operations Capabilities Team (IOCT) in support of the AF IOCP and other applicable requirements documents. Program activities are protected under the PANTHER DEN Special Access Program. This program is Budget Activity 7, Operational System Development, because it studies, develops, tests, and fields IO technologies to operational systems.
