Surface Ship Torpedo Defense
Abstract
The Surface Ship Torpedo Defense (SSTD) program provides a detect-to-engage hard-kill torpedo defense capability through two development programs. The Countermeasure Anti- Torpedo (CAT) program develops a canisterized Anti-Torpedo Torpedo (ATT) as an ACAT II program. The Torpedo Warning System (TWS) develops the required ship systems as an ACAT III program. The AN/SLQ-25X solicitation has been cancelled due to a more cost effective technical solution of interfacing the TWS to NIXIE system. The program will focus on first providing torpedo defense capability to High Value Units (HVU). The Initial Operational Capability (IOC) system will be installed on one CVN and one Combat Logistics Force (CLF) ship (both HVUs) with IOC in FY19. Additionally, the program will develop and field six Surface Ship Torpedo Defense prototype (TWS/CAT) Engineering Design Model (EDM) systems on CVNs. Each prototype consists of one TWS and eight CATs. The six systems were accelerated due to the lack of torpedo defense on HVUs which has been exacerbated by recent real-world events and evolving threats. The systems provide a hard-kill torpedo defense capability in advance of the IOC as part of the program of record. To accomplish this effort, the department reprogrammed $9.9 million of FY10 funds, $6.1 million of FY11 funds and $6.4 million of FY12 funds. Furthermore the department received a prior approval reprogramming for an additional $7.9 million of FY10 funds. The first two prototypes are expected to deliver in FY14; these two systems will be delivered in a roll-on/roll-off (RO-RO) configuration and delivered to the theater commander. Following delivery of the RO-RO capability, the program will build and deliver the final four EDM systems for installation on two carriers each year in FY15 and FY16. Additionally, the program will deliver one hybrid prototype system in FY13. This is in addition to the six prototype EDM systems discussed above. The system will deliver some capability to a forward deployed CVN asset before the first prototype EDM system is available. Compact Rapid Attack Weapon (CRAW) - At about one-third the weight of the current lightweight ASW weapon, CRAW is projected to cost less while performing at least as well. The successful performance testing of CRAW against submarine targets will validate and increase readiness CRAW as a candidate for weaponizing multiple platforms.

- Change Summary Explanation
- Technical and Schedule: PB14 changed two EDMs to a RO/RO capability due to acceleration of CVN deployments and increased presence requirements. Additionally, program shifted IOC to FY19. FY14 funds reduced $10M due to CVN 77 install in FY13; $530K reduction of Advisory and Assistance Services and other contracts and $18.023M for rate/misc adjustments which includes: an increase of $15.6M for SSTD RO/RO capability, a net reduction of $304K for Working Capital rate adjustments; a decrease of $25K for Standard Procurement System Replacement Strategy; a decrease of $248K for Naval Innovative Science and Engineering (Section 219) Program Funding Mechanism; and an increase of $3M for CRAW in support of Speed to Fleet.
