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 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). Navigation Satellite Timing & Ranging (NAVSTAR) Global Positioning System (GPS) project (0921) encompasses the Navy's efforts to pace the growing threat to GPS Navigation through the fielding of new GPS receivers, Anti-Jam (AJ) Antennas, and Assured Position Navigation and Timing (A-PNT) technologies across all Navy platform types. NAVSTAR GPS is a group of A-PNT systems that provides authorized users with secure, worldwide, all weather, three dimensional position, velocity, and precise time data. NAVSTAR GPS provides A-PNT capability to Command, Control, Communications, Computer, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) and combat systems in standalone and networked architectures throughout air and maritime domains. This project is comprised of four distinct efforts: Sea Navigation Warfare (NAVWAR), GPS-based Position, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) Service (GPNTS), Air Navigation Warfare (NAVWAR) and GPS Modernization. Sea NAVWAR provides AJ antennas and GPNTS provides GPS receivers and A-PNT technology to surface platforms, and Air NAVWAR provides AJ antennas and GPS Modernization provides GPS receivers to air platforms. Research, Development, Testing and Evaluation (RDT&E) funds are used to perform all the non-recurring GPS Surface Ship, Submarine and Aircraft Development, Integration, and Testing efforts in support of NAVSTAR GPS.

Change Summary Explanation
Beginning in FY 2020, Project 0921 was realigned from Program Element (PE) 0604777N into PE 0604280N due to budget line item consolidation. Program: Proj: 0921 Navigation Satellite Timing & Ranging (NAVSTAR) Global Positioning System (GPS) Equipment: As a result of hardware contract delays for the EGI-M GPS receivers and subsequent Prime Vendor Integration (PVI) contract delays, GPS Modernization withstood FY 2018 and FY 2019 budget reductions with minimal impact. F/A-18E/F, MV-22B, and CMV-22B air platforms equipped with MAGR2K-M GPS receivers will move forward with PVI efforts. F/A-18E/F, EA-18G, E-2D, CH-53K, and KC-130J air platforms with EGI-M GPS Receivers will move forward with critical risk reduction efforts to ensure Navy specific requirements are met in support of hardware development and PVI efforts.
