Navigation/Id System

Abstract

Reliable and secure navigation and positive identification (ID) systems are essential elements of battle management in the naval environment. The Photonics Imaging System (0253) is a non-hull penetrating replacement for existing optical periscopes. The Photonics Imaging System exploits a wide portion of the electro-magnetic spectrum utilizing advanced Electro-Optic/thermal imaging, and communications intercept/Electronic Warfare Support (ES). The Integrated Submarine Imaging System (ISIS) (0253) is a back fit system to integrate all imaging capabilities on existing submarine classes. The Combat Identification System (CIS) project (1253) for Mark XIIA, and Improved Identification Development (0676) for AN/UPX-29(V), covers the Navy lead of a Mark XIIA Mode 5 upgrade to the existing Mark XII family of systems that is Joint and North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) interoperable. Per OSD direction, NATO participation is encouraged and performance data is exchanged to ensure the opportunity for interoperability with allied identification systems is maximized. In addition to distinguishing friend from foe for weapons employment, the Navy requires secure, jam resistant Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) systems for battle group air defense management and air traffic control. Identification is multifaceted and includes information received from several sensors (both cooperative and non-cooperative systems). NAVSTAR Global Positioning System (GPS) project (0921) is a space-based positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) system that provides authorized users with secure, worldwide, all weather, three dimensional position, velocity and precise time data. Navigation Sensor System Interface (NAVSSI) is a system that provides an integrated navigation message structure for network distribution to support combat, command and control, information and other mission critical capabilities. Navy Air and Sea Navigation Warfare (NAVWAR) are major elements of the GPS program. NAVWAR's mission is to provide continued access to GPS information in a denied environment. NAVWAR accomplishes this through the use of enhanced user equipment (UE). GPS Modernization addresses the Navy's future integration of GPS Joint Program Office (JPO) Modernized User Equipment (MUE) products being developed that will enable the use of new signals in space. WRN-X is a modernized ship GPS equipment development program required to provide a replacement for the existing WRN-6 receiver and other shipboard receivers. Navigation Sensor System Interface (NAVSSI) is a surface based system that integrates shipboard position, navigation and timing data, and distributes the processed output to user systems and networks.

Change Summary Explanation
Technical: Not applicable. Schedule: Realigned Funding due to increased requirement to Mode 5 Improvement in support of Operational Assessment deficiencies. This drove schedule changes for both projects 0676 and 1253. Project 0676: Changes in the OE-120/UPX Antenna schedule reflect the revised Mode 5 Acquisition Program Baseline. Changes to the the OE-120 Contract Schedule and Review Milestones reflects reprioritization of Operation Assessment correction of deficiencies. Removal of the Naval Tactical Data System elimination efforts reflects reprioritization of Operation Assessment correction of deficiencies. The Mode 5 Joint IOC scheduled for 4QFY14 will not include F/A-18E/F, EA-18G, and KC-130J per JROCM 047-07. Project 1253: The Mode 5 Joint IOC scheduled for 4QFY14 will not include F/A-18E/F, EA-18G, and KC-130J per JROCM 047-07.
