Tactical Intel Targeting Access Node (TITAN) Adv Dev

Abstract

The Tactical Intelligence Targeting Access Node (TITAN) is a key enabler of the Army Modernization Priorities in support of Army Cross Functional Teams. TITAN is a scalable and expeditionary intelligence ground station that supports commanders across the entire Multi-Domain Operations (MDO)/Joint All Domain Operations (JADO) battlefield framework with capabilities tailored to echelon. TITAN leverages Space, High Altitude, Aerial and Terrestrial layer sensors to provide targetable data to fires networks as well as multi-discipline intelligence support to targeting and Situation Awareness/Situation Understanding (SA/SU) in support of mission command. This funding will provide development and prototyping of Critical Radio Frequency (RF) technologies and integration of Space Force's new Space-Based ISR capabilities into the TITAN POR. TITAN is the future Army Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) ground station that will consolidate the sensor processing capabilities in the current Distributed Common Ground System-Army (DCGS-A) Operational-Intelligence Ground Station (OGS), Tactical-Intelligence Ground Station (TGS), the Advanced Miniaturized Data Acquisition System Dissemination Vehicle (ADV) and the Remote Ground Terminal (RGT). Additionally, TITAN will have the access and sensor tasking or control capabilities of the future Tactical Space Layer assets, National assets, the Multi-Domain Sensing Systems (MDSS) as well as commercial overhead sensors. Consequently, the TITAN ground station will be able to conduct deep sensing operations with the abilities to Task, Collect, Process, Exploit, and Disseminate (TCPED) information from Space, High Altitude, Aerial, and Terrestrial Layer sensors in support of Long Range Precision Fires (LRPF) operations. The total cost of the TITAN Middle Tier of Acquisition effort is $486 million RDTE from FY22 to FY26. The TITAN program is fully funded across the Future Years Defense Program.
