Airborne Acoustic Intelligence (AAI)

Abstract

The mission of Airborne Acoustic Intelligence (AAI) (CNO Project K-0416) is to provide advanced antisubmarine warfare capabilities through rapid development of new technology and prototype mechanisms for the collection of antisubmarine warfare (ASW) related intelligence. This includes full spectrum intelligence collections and cataloging of current targets of interest. The program develops and swiftly deploys disruptive innovation to counter emerging threats in order to maintain the United States' current undersea warfare superiority. AAI employs the capability to quickly reconstruct and analyze passive and active measurements of submarine vulnerabilities providing actionable intelligence to fleet commanders. The AAI data collection program provides full spectrum intelligence data essential for the design and development of advanced sensors, weapon systems, environmental models, and tactical decision aids. AAI collection systems are installed and employed on uniquely configured aircraft, specially configured ground support facilities, ships, and other assets as required for the collection, processing, exfiltration, and dissemination of undersea intelligence. AAI includes recording systems, advanced detection and tracking systems, specially designed sensors, advanced processing systems and techniques, and specially derived tactics. This is a Military Intelligence Program (MIP).
