Deployable Surveillance Systems
Abstract
The Deployable Surveillance Systems (DSS) project (0344), complementing Fixed Surveillance System (FSS) and Surveillance Towed Array Sensor System (SURTASS), provides flexible and responsive wide area surveillance to the Theater Anti-Submarine Warfare (TASW) commanders worldwide. DSS will operate as adjunct systems to meet the established FSS and SURTASS missions and to meet additional missions as articulated in the Office of the Chief of Naval Operations (OPNAV) Top Level Requirements document and follow-on Course of Action Analysis (COAA) and as dictated by TASW commanders evolving and emergent operational requirements. DSS is comprised of the following systems: Deep Water Passive (DWP), Deep Water Active (DWA), and Mobile Passive Active System (MPAS). Informed by TASW Offset operations and the tailored requirements process, the DSS Middle Tier Acquisition (MTA) Rapid Fielding Program will focus initially on the DWP increment and associated spiral development updates. Spiral developments to meet the evolving submarine threat will leverage on-going Navy, Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), and small business research efforts including processing and sensor technology. Follow-on increments will be focused on DWA and MPAS, of which MPAS is currently outside the Future Years Defense Program (FYDP). FY23 includes Congressional Add funds ($22.5M) for DSS/DWA that will provide a rapidly deployable sustained surveillance capability in response to emergent Fleet Undersea Warfare (USW) coverage gaps to include mitigating array outages or platform shortages. This funding will be used to procure one DWA cluster in order to (1) prepare the rationale for using a MTA Program for a future DWA program; (2) conduct a Fleet demonstration to validate Top-Level Requirements; and (3) identify full DWA MTA funding requirements.
