Warfare Support System
Abstract
The Rapid Capabilities Development (RCD) program supports the Naval Special Warfare (NSW) Branch by identifying and assessing available technologies that confront current and future irregular and expeditionary warfare challenges. Program development efforts focus on the enhancement/advancement of existing technologies to fill urgent and emergent capability gaps for NSW. Program funding provides for the development, integration, testing, validation, combat demonstration, and evaluation of identified technologies to meet operational requirements; service-common and NSW program technology challenges; and technology obsolescence issues of developed capabilities. The RCD program develops expeditionary/operational capabilities that enable NSW forces to conduct joint cross-domain special reconnaissance, counterterrorism, direct action, amphibious and irregular warfare, and fulfill urgent/emergent needs within a 9-36 month timeframe. As part of the Naval Coastal Warfare Surveillance program, Identity Dominance System (IDS) supports the Joint Personnel Identity (JPI) program. Maritime Expeditionary Security Force (MESF) have a mobile security mission that requires methodologies, procedures, equipment and the communications capacity to identify individuals who represent a potential threat as a means to deter and eliminate individuals from conducting asymmetric/non-traditional attacks upon friendly forces, high value assets and coastal areas that Naval Coastal Warfare (NCW) is charged with protecting. The Visit, Board, Search and Seizure (VBSS) teams conducting Expanded Maritime Interception Operations also have a similar requirement to identify individuals. The development of a device to support identity functions is captured in the IDS Capability Development Document (CDD) and implemented in the IDS Capability Production Document (CPD). IDS units are used in the following environments: aboard ships, ashore at ports, the littorals, and extended inland field environments worldwide. IDS is employed in both maritime and very austere ashore environments, carried by individuals who are part of ship boarding parties and by dismounted patrols. These mission and environmental requirements demand the need for a portable, lightweight, ruggedized, and reliable system with intuitive and user friendly features. IDS biometric modalities may differ by mission profile, requiring the authoritative response to the On-Scene Commander/Boarding Officer on whether to detain or further investigate an individual of interest or engage in a more thorough search of boarded ships. The United States Navy Service Common Visual Augmentation Systems (VAS) Program of Record manages, procures, and maintains night vision devices, thermal detection devices, day/night weapons optics, and lasers in support of Navy combat capabilities with regard to the detection, recognition, classification, tracking, and destruction of hostile air and surface forces. The USN VAS Program also manages research into the future of visual augmentation systems and engages with Navy and DoD VAS stakeholders to ensure the Navy maintains competitive advantage over near-peer adversaries. Combatant Craft Replacement will provide next generation Expeditionary Multi Mission Craft that will replace in-service Expeditionary Combatant Craft. Combatant Craft replacements shall forward deploy and persistently engage in order to dominate in the Littorals and reinforce Distributed Maritime Operations Lethality, they gain access to as well as CLEAR the battlespace of unexploded ordnance and other man-made or natural hazards and SECURE and PROTECT critical infrastructure and their approaches from the sea for naval platforms as they conduct operations. These capabilities are critical to Navy employment of modern warfare concepts, including Distributed Maritime Operations (DMO), Expeditionary Advanced Base Operations (EABO), and Littoral Operations in a Contested Environment (LOCE). Specific mission and capabilities will be identified in an Initial Capabilities Document (ICD) or Letter of Requirements. RDT&E funding will fund feasibility studies and procurement of mock-ups and prototype craft and craft and mission support technology to demonstrate capabilities prior to production craft procurement. The Diesel Fuel Outboard Motor Testing project supports the transition of the FY 2015 Rapid Innovation Fund "Affordable Multi-fuel Multi-engine Advanced Combatant Craft" program to the Explosive Ordnance Disposal Force. This technology minimizes the types of fuel required to increase standardization, flexibility, and interoperability during deployment while at the same time reduces total ownership cost. Testing of this technology shall determine the operational viability and any changes required to boat design to ensure safety and suitability. DRAKE is the shipboard Counter-Unmanned Aircraft System (CUAS) to meet the CUAS Afloat Top Level Requirements (TLR). Funds will be used to develop, test, and integrate COTS-based hardware, software, and advanced techniques into DRAKE; thus improving its capability to detect, identify, and defeat UAS that threaten ships. Upgrades include hardware refresh with faster COTS processors to increase processing speed and reaction time (NextGen SDR), a COTS tablet (CDU 2.0) to improve situational awareness, and evaluation of COTS antennas to improve detection and defeat of UAS.
