Airborne Acoustic Intelligence (AAI)
Abstract
The mission of Airborne ASW Intelligence (AAI) (CNO Project K-0416) is to provide advanced Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) capabilities through development of new technology and prototype mechanisms for the collection and analysis of ASW related intelligence. This includes full spectrum intelligence collections, analysis, and cataloging of current peer and near peer adversaries. The program develops and deploys disruptive technologies to counter emerging threats in order to maintain the United States' current undersea warfare superiority. AAI employs systems such as the Mighty Orion (MO) and Anti-Submarine Warfare Mission Planning and Reconstruction Systems (AMPRS) with the Global Reconstruction and Acoustic Measurement Suite (GRAMS) software application to support the Tasking, Collection, Processing, Exploitation, and Dissemination (TC/PED) of passive and active intelligence measurements of current and next generation submarine vulnerabilities. The AAI data collection program provides full spectrum, measured intelligence data essential for the design and development of advanced sensors, weapon systems, environmental models, and tactical decision aids by using currently fielded sonobuoy systems; developing the Passive Extended Range Sonobuoy System; and providing prototype AN/SSQ-113 NUAMP family of sensors to collect active target strength measurement data for the Intelligence Community. AAI collection systems are installed and employed on uniquely configured platforms, specially configured ground support facilities, ships, and other assets as required for the collection, processing, exfiltration, and dissemination of undersea intelligence. AAI develops advanced components and system prototype for advanced detection and tracking systems, specially designed sensors, advanced processing systems and techniques, and specially derived tactics. This is a Military Intelligence Program (MIP).
