Carrier Systems Development

Abstract

This Program Element (PE) addresses technology areas associated with Command and Control (C2) of the MH-60R/S Seahawk Helicopter, as well as the development of other technologies and enhancements for Aircraft Carrier-based systems. PROJECT 3216: The AN/SQQ-34 Aircraft Carrier Tactical Support Center (CV-TSC) program delivers Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) and Surface Warfare (SUW) combat capability to the Aircraft Carrier. This Project provides incremental development to deliver frequent capability updates to the Fleet, developing, testing, certifying, and fielding system upgrades and cyber-security patches. The Project maintains interoperability with current and future interfaces; supports mission data exchange; improves track/sensor processing and analysis techniques; improves mission planning; improves data recording, reconstruction, and distribution; improves embedded simulation and training capabilities and implements cyber-security measures to effectively employ overall CVN self-defense capabilities. CV-TSC integrates sensor data from Off-Board Aircraft, Organic Platform Sensors, Minotaur Multi-Sensor Fused Track Data, Link-16 Track Data, Ship Self Defense System (SSDS) Track Data (non-Product Line Architecture (non-PLA) and Product Line Architecture (PLA), Global Command and Control System (GCCS) Over-the-Horizon Track Data, and Environmental and Threat Databases to assess the threat and assist the Tactical Action Officer (TAO) and Carrier Strike Group (CSG) to effectively employ overall CVN self-defense capabilities. CV-TSC generates real-time ASW/SUW information and recommendations, tactical planning and employment of ASW/SUW assets, ASW/SUW sensor data processing and analysis, and distribution of tactically significant data. Aircraft supported include: MH-60R/S Seahawk, P-8 Poseidon, MQ-4C Triton, and future ASW/SUW systems. PROJECT 4005: The In-Service Carrier Systems Development Demonstration and Validation Program develops new technology and enhancements to deliver an affordable, robust, operator-friendly automation control environment for Navy Aircraft Carrier shipboard equipment. The program provides the system architecture, requirements/specification development, technology selection, software development (including software baseline), manpower requirements, Total Ownership Costs (TOC), as well as land-based and shipboard testing of new technologies to improve shipboard operations.

Change Summary Explanation
FUNDING CHANGES SINCE PREVIOUS PRESIDENT'S BUDGET AT THE OVERALL PE LEVEL: - FY 2020 decrease of $-0.091M is the result of the Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) transfer. - FY 2021 decrease of $-0.033M reflects the fair-share application of a Congressional undistributed reduction. - FY 2022 decrease of $-0.211M reflects the application of service contract savings and Navy Working Capital Fund (NWCF) and miscellaneous rate adjustments. PROJECT 3216 - FY 2021 TO FY 2022 BUDGET REQUEST DECREASE: - FY 2021 ($6.307M) to FY 2022 ($6.004M) decrease ($-0.303M) is due to the incorporation of NWCF rate adjustments and the application of service contracts savings. PROJECT 3216 - SCHEDULE CHANGES SINCE PREVIOUS PRESIDENT'S BUDGET: - CV-TSC Fleet Capability Release (FCR)-5 development has been split into two separate deliveries: FCR-5 (Technical Insertion (TI-16)) and FCR-5A (Minotaur Integration) because of the accelerated delivery of FCR-5 required for CVN-79. FCR-5/TI-16 development for CVN-79 will complete in 4Q21, Independent Verification & Validation (IV&V) will occur from 4Q21 to 2Q22, and Integrated Shipboard Network System/Consolidated Afloat Network Enterprise System (ISNS/CANES), Platform Information Technology/Information Assurance (PIT/ATO), Element Certification, and Combat System Test (CST) will occur in 2Q22. PROJECT 4005 - FY 2021 TO FY 2022 BUDGET REQUEST DECREASE: - FY 2021 ($1.219M) to FY 2022 ($1.178M) decrease ($-0.041M) reflects the completion of the C4I Network performance modeling and analysis requirement and the NWCF rate adjustment.
