Submarine Tactical Warfare System
Abstract
Project Unit 0236: This program develops Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) based software and hardware upgrades to integrate improved tactical and weapons control capabilities for multiple submarine Classes (SSN-688, SSGN, SEAWOLF, and VIRGINIA (Post Shakedown Availability)). The AN/BYG-1 is the combat control system common across submarine platforms which incorporates tactical control, weapon control, and tactical Local Area Network (LAN) functions into a single development program. The hardware upgrades, Technology Insertions (TI) are developed on a biennial basis to provide improved capability and address COTS obsolescence. Funding also accommodates the biennial integration of software Advanced Processing Builds (APB) for both tactical control (APB(T)) and weapon control (APB(W)) subsystems. The tactical control integration effort incorporates the integration of other sensor (ESM, sonar, radar, etc.) inputs to provide a common operational picture and improved situational awareness in an information assurance (IA) compliant environment. The weapon control development effort provides improvements to the weapons control subsystem based on improvements to missiles and torpedoes. AN/BYG-1 allows the submarine Navy to rapidly update the ship safety tactical picture, integrate the common tactical picture into the battlegroup, improve torpedo interfaces, and provide Tactical TOMAHAWK (TOMAHAWK Block IV) capability. This program also develops and tests a Common Weapon Launcher, a COTS-based software weapons launch capability for Virginia Class submarines. This upgrade provides a more reliable capability for launching missiles and torpedoes from submarines while providing the architecture to support the introduction of the next generation of payloads and sensors. This new design will also reduce the recurring costs of VA Class submarine weapon launch systems. Project Unit 9999 is comprised of FY10 congressional adds for Artificial Intelligence-Based Combat System Kernel, Submarine System Biometrics Access Control, Submarine Environment for Evaluation and Development, Organic Submarine ISRT Demonstration and Weapon Acquisition and Firing System.
