Electronic Warfare Development
Abstract
This program element (PE) encompasses engineering and manufacturing development for tactical Electronic Warfare (EW). The Integrated Electronic Warfare System (IEWS) is a capability set that integrates electronic attack, protect and support functions to dramatically improve the ability to seize, retain, and exploit an advantage within the electromagnetic spectrum (EMS). It is based on a modular, scalable and open architecture to allow Army Brigade Combat Team (BCT) and Joint Force Commander's to tailor capability responses against a variety of EW threats/scenarios. The IEWS capability set is structured along four program lines of effort: 1) Project DX5 Electronic Warfare Planning and Management Tools (EWPMT), 2) Project DX6 Multi-Function EW (MFEW), 3) Project VS6 Counter Radio-Controlled Improvised Explosive Devices (RCIED) Electronic Warfare (CREW) which provides current defensive electronic attack capability, and 4) Project ET7 Radio Frequency Interference Mitigation (RIM) which resolves radio frequency interference and electromagnetic fratricide and enables electronic warfare and communications compatibility. Project DX5 - The Electronic Warfare Planning and Management Tool (EWPMT) is a software solution that provides the Commander, their staff (Electronic Warfare Officer (EWO) and Spectrum Manager), and the Cyber Electromagnetic Activities (CEMA) working group/cell the ability to control, manage, and dominate the Electromagnetic Spectrum (EMS) in order to fight in contested and congested EMS/Cyber environments. EWPMT will provide: capabilities to plan, coordinate, manage, and de-conflict Electronic Warfare (EW) activities, the ability for remote control & management of EW assets to conduct offensive and defensive Electronic Attack and cyber, EW targeting, enable maneuver through CEMA operations, and synchronize EW, Spectrum Management Operations (SMO) and CEMA across Intelligence, Operations, and Signals. EWPMT will integrate essential data elements to include but not limited to Mission Command, Intelligence, Fires, Signals to successfully execute Multi-Domain Operations and meet the Commander's needs and desired effects. Project DX6 - The Multi-Function EW (MFEW) is a capability set that will provide the BCT Commander with an organic Electronic Attack (EA) and Electronic Warfare Support (ES) capability. MFEW variants empower Commanders to shape the Electromagnetic Spectrum (EMS) to their advantage. MFEW will provide commanders with an organic EW capability that dramatically improves a land force's ability to seize, retain, and exploit an advantage within the EMS in order to execute successful unified land operations. These capabilities give the commander a competitive advantage by denying, degrading the enemy's ability to conduct Command and Control (C2), Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR), and targeting; and allows the commander to optimize effects within the EMS at the time and place of their choosing. These systems are networked with a C2 system that enables remote operation and dynamic tasking/reprogramming. Project ET7 - Radio Frequency Interference Mitigation (RIM) is a cross cutting capability to centrally manage and provide oversight to identify, define, test, and coordinate development of Radio Frequency (RF) interference mitigation material solutions to resolve mutual RF interference and electromagnetic fratricide for Spectrum Dependent Systems (SDS). Project VS6 - Counter Radio Controlled Improvised Explosive Device (RCIED) Electronic Warfare (CREW) provides for protection for ground forces operating in vehicle convoys, single vehicle operations and fixed locations in all theatres of operations. It is programmable to migrate with the evolving threat and provides non-lethal capabilities which enable freedom of movement across depth/breadth of the operational environment.
