Surface Ship Torpedo Defense
Abstract
The Surface Ship Torpedo Defense (SSTD) program provides a detect-to-engage layered torpedo defense capability. It is comprised of four major efforts, the AN/SLQ-25 (NIXIE) system, Torpedo Warning System (TWS), the Countermeasure Anti-Torpedo (CAT) and Acoustic Device Countermeasure (ADC MK2 Mod4). There are two development programs, the CAT program develops a canisterized Anti-Torpedo Torpedo (ATT) and is planned to be a ACAT II program. The TWS develops the required torpedo detection, classification and localization (TDCL) ship systems an ACAT III program. 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 hard-kill 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. The program delivered one hybrid prototype system in FY13 on USS GHW BUSH. The next prototype was delivered in FY14; This system was delivered in a roll-on/roll-off (RO-RO) configuration and installed on USS Roosevelt. The program will build and deliver one additional RO-RO and one EDM in FY15 and 2 EDMs in FY16. The program will focus on first providing torpedo defense capability to High Value Units (HVU). For the Initial Operational Capability (IOC) the system will be installed on one CVN and one Combat Logistics Force (CLF) ship (both HVUs) with IOC in FY22.

- Change Summary Explanation
- The FY 2016 funding reflects program increases to accelerate and deliver the SALVO capability by the end of FY16 including 2 additional independent system integration at sea tests on CVNs. Continue successful fielding of the prototype systems to deploying CVNs and reduce the overall program risk. The CAT program will enter Milestone B in FY16, with a Milestone C decision in FY19. The FY 2014 funding request include reduction for other rate/misc adjustments and SBIR transfer.
