Acoustic Search Sensors

Abstract

Includes RDT&E funds for engineering development and operational test and evaluation of acoustic search sensors/systems and complementary equipment for Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) aircraft. JUSTIFICATION FOR BUDGET ACTIVITY: This program is funded under SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT AND DEMONSTRATION because it includes those projects that have passed Milestone B approval and are conducting engineering and manufacturing development tasks aimed at meeting validated requirement prior to full-rate production decision.

Change Summary Explanation
Technical: Not applicable. Schedule: 0480 Schedule 1. Received technical correction for MAC Enhancements (MAC-E) with funding in FY16-FY22. Updated schedule to better align with P-8A's new acquisition strategy. 0480 Schedule 2. 0480 Schedule 3. 3224 Schedule. The P-8A Initial Operational Capability (IOC) milestones were removed to better align with the P-8A schedule. Additionally, the integrated and operational test periods were further defined to reflect HAASW requirements integration into P-8A ECP 2, ECP 3, and INC 3 testing. The Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) Mitigation Analysis was added to the schedule based on the need to address emergent requirements in the sonobuoys. The digital telemetry contract award was then replaced with the planned P-8A integration and sonobuoy production contract awards. This aligns with the current acquisition strategy to add the digital telemetry requirement for the SSQ-125 sonobuoy into the FY19-23 production contract due to affordability.
