Multi-Domain Sensing System (MDSS) Adv Dev
Abstract
The Multi Domain Sensing System (MDSS) provides advanced aerial intelligence sensing capabilities for Multi-Domain Operations (MDO) against peer and near-peer adversaries. Initial MDSS development focuses on the High Accuracy Detection and Exploitation System (HADES) which is a globally deployable fixed-wing jet providing MDO-relevant sensing at extended ranges for indications and warnings, electronic order of battle, and patterns of life for the competition phase of MDO, and target development for the transition to conflict. During conflict, HADES operates at standoff distances for survivability against enemy integrated air defense systems (IADS) and anti-access/area denial (A2AD) systems. HADES sensors include electronic intelligence (ELINT), communications intelligence (COMINT), and synthetic aperture radar (SAR)/moving target indicator (MTI) in its first increment. Future increments will add cyber/electronic warfare (EW) systems and use air-launched effects (ALE) to extend sensing ranges. These capabilities will enable ground commanders to detect, locate, identify, track, and target critical enemy assets on the ground and support tactical consumers like Long Range Precision Fires (LRPF). FY 2023 base dollars in the amount of $49.932 million support the continued development and prototyping of ELINT, COMINT, and SAR/MTI sensors for HADES.
