Air/Ocean Equipment Engineering

Abstract

The Air/Ocean Equipment Engineering (AOEE) Program Element provides new capabilities to support naval combat forces. This program engineers and developmentally tests organic and remote sensors, communication interfaces, and processing and display devices. This equipment is engineered to measure, ingest, store, process, distribute and display conditions of the physical environment that are essential to the optimum employment and performance of naval warfare systems. AOEE also engineers capabilities for shipboard and shore-based tactical systems. A major area of focus for the AOEE program is to provide the engineering development of specialized equipment and measurement capabilities that are intended to monitor specific conditions of the physical environment in hostile and remote areas in response to fleet demand signals for increased sensing capability and capacity to support battlespace collections and prediction on short to intermediate time scales. With such capabilities, the war fighters' situational awareness of the operational effects of the physical environment are made more certain. Efforts include investigation of emerging technologies through study, development, and associated testing for feasibility of program insertion. Major emphasis areas include the Naval Integrated Tactical Environmental System Next Generation (NITES-Next)program, the Remote Sensing Capability Development (RSCD) project and Littoral Battlespace Sensors - Unmanned Undersea Vehicles (LBS-UUV).
