Air Defense Command, Control and Intelligence - Eng Dev
Abstract
The FY 2022 Direct War/Enduring Operations dollars in the amount of $0.494 million in Project 126 will continue to support the Army Long-Range Persistent Surveillance (ALPS), which is a passive sensor that provides long range surveillance against Cruise Missile (CM), Fixed Wing (FW), Rotary Wing (RW), and Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) threats. Prototype systems will be provided to meet EUCOM, INDOPACOM, and CENTCOM (JUON-CC-0576) identified operational needs and to conduct an assessment via a report by the combatant commander(s). The objectives of this effort are to provide component and subsystem maturity in a system-of-systems environment and to reduce subsequent integration risk into Joint and Army Command and Control systems. The Air Missile Defense Planning and Control System (AMDPCS) provides integration of air and missile defense operations at all echelons. Specifically, the Air and Missile Defense Work Station (AMDWS) provides a correlated air picture using local radars, allowing the Commander the visibility and situational understanding of the airspace; automated defense design and staff planning tools in AMDWS afford soldiers horizontal and vertical collaborative planning with adjacent units. Air Defense System Integrator (ADSI) serves as a joint tactical data link gateway/air picture, and when correlated by FAAD C2 and displayed on AMDWS, provides a near real time, three dimensional air picture for the Commander. Joint Tactical Terminal (JTT) provides soldiers Theater Ballistic Missile (TBM) early warning, allowing them to take appropriate actions. AMDPCS is fielded to Army Air and Missile Defense Commands (AAMDC), Air Defense Artillery Brigades (ADA BDE), Air and Missile Defense Battalions (AMD BN), and Terminal High Altitude Area Air Defense Batteries (THAAD BTRY). Air Defense Airspace Management (ADAM), a variant of AMDPCS with similar capabilities, is fielded to Corps, Divisions, Brigade Combat Teams (BCT), and multi-functional support brigades. As part of the capability and technology reuse, AMDWS and FAAD C2 are core components of the Counter-Rocket, Artillery, Mortar (C-RAM) system-of-systems currently deployed in multiple areas of operation. The C-RAM system-of-systems is an evolutionary program that detects RAM launches, provides localized warning to the defended area, intercepts rounds in flight, and enhances response to and defeat of enemy forces. C-RAM combines multi-service fielded and non-developmental item sensors, command and control (C2) equipment, warning systems, and a modified U.S. Navy intercept system (Land-based Phalanx Weapon System [LPWS]), all connected via a wireless local area network. The FAAD C2 system has been enhanced to integrate the sensors, weapons, and warning systems to provide C2 for the C-RAM system-of-systems. FAAD C2 software correlates the RAM sensor data, evaluates the threat, provides early warning, directs engagements, and cues counterfire systems and reaction forces. FAAD C2 employs an agile software development, maintenance, and sustainment strategy, with Urgent Materiel Releases (UMR) every six (6) months and Full Materiel Releases (FMR) every 15-18 months to keep pace with rapidly fielding integrated systems to meet operational needs. C-RAM capability in theater is supported through the Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO) process. Base RDT&E supports FAAD C2 basic Air Defense functionality as well as directed enhancements to the C-RAM system-of-systems capability, such as development and integration of C-RAM network security enhancements and development of all-digital radar technology to address emerging threats. The FY 2022 Direct War/Enduring Operations dollars in the amount of $35.177 million in Project FG5 will continue to support the Counter-small Unmanned Aircraft System (C-sUAS) efforts will provide forces at all echelons with cross domain capabilities, while supporting joint operational requirements. These combined arms solutions will support the full kill-chain and result in solutions addressing Fixed/Semi Fixed Site, Mobile platform, and Dismounted missions. Development efforts are aligned with Joint Requirements Oversight Council Memorandum (JROCM) 078-20, which codifies the threshold and objective capability requirements for C-sUAS development and focuses on technologies which increase capabilities to identify, classify, track, and defeat Group 1 through 3 UAS threats.
