Air Defense Command, Control and Intelligence - Eng Dev
Abstract
A portion of this funding line is a key enabler of the Army Modernization Priorities in support of Air Missile Defense Planning and Control System (AMDPCS). 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 external interfaces are being leveraged by Integrated Battle Command System (IBCS) to avoid redevelopment of existing capabilities. AMDWS and FAAD C2 are core components of the Air and Missile Defense system-of-systems currently deployed in combat zones. 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. Counter-Unmanned Aircraft Systems (C-UAS) 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, 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-UAS development and focuses on technologies which increase capabilities to identify, classify, track, and defeat Groups 1-3 UAS threats.
