Mission Planning
Abstract
The Mission Planning PE is used to develop automated mission planning systems to support Naval Aviation. The Joint Mission Planning System (JMPS) (Proj 2213) is the designated automated mission planning system for Naval Aviation, supporting over 40 Type/Model/Series (T/M/S) of U.S. Navy and Marine Corps aircraft, expeditionary forces as well as Joint and Coalition forces. The Joint Mission Planning System - Maritime (JMPS-M) enables weapon system employment by providing the information, automated tools, and decision aids needed to rapidly plan aircraft, weapon, or sensor missions, load mission data into aircraft and weapons, conduct mission rehearsal, execute missions, and conduct post-mission analysis. The Joint Mission Planning System -Expeditionary (JMPS-E) is a scalable, tailorable, and collaborative web-based mission planning and execution monitoring tool for Amphibious Squadron staffs embarked with each Amphibious Ready Group and Expeditionary Strike Group. Electronic Kneeboard (EKB) is a mobile computing device configured with various software applications and features to support aircrew during pre-flight planning, in-flight re-planning and mission execution, and post-mission debriefing and analysis. Preflight mission planning, data loading, rehearsals, mission execution and post mission analyses are conducted at all appropriate security classification levels. The Standardized Tester of Reprogrammable Munitions (STORM) system (Proj 2213) replaces the legacy Common Munitions Built-in-Test (BIT)/Reprogramming Equipment (CMBRE) and provides USN/USMC forces the critical capability to perform built-in test and programming/reprogramming of various advanced weapons. The STORM system supports advanced operational capabilities, addresses legacy CMBRE system obsolescence, enhances cybersecurity posture to improve readiness, and improves sortie generation rate. The Next Generation Naval Mission Planning System (NGNMPS), will address critical capability gaps and deficiencies in the legacy JMPS that are required for modern 21st century integrated mission-centric and collaborative multi-domain mission planning, execution and analysis. The NGNMPS will replace Naval Aviation's legacy JMPS no later than FY 2027 while also affordably leveraging prior investments across the systems of systems to deliver integrated and collaborative capability. The NGNMPS will affordably address technological obsolescence while also delivering collaborative and automated capabilities in an integrated virtual collaborative data environment. The NGNMPS capability provides advanced multiple aircraft planning capabilities focused on emerging, high-threat mission areas. Current mission planning capabilities support individual aircraft and weapon initialization requirements. The emerging, near-peer threat environment demands a much more capable system that enables a team of aircraft to cooperate effectively across multiple mission areas, domains, and security levels. The NGNMPS will also leverage service-oriented architecture to provide revolutionary improvements in workflow, usability, cybersecurity. Additionally NGNMPS will provide information and decision aids needed to rapidly plan/employ/maximize effectiveness of aircraft/weapon/sensor/payload mission plans. This functionality includes advanced pre-mission rehearsal/analysis, loading mission data into aircraft and weapons, dynamic replanning/retargeting against evolving threats in contested environments, and advanced post-mission debrief/ analysis. The NGNMPS will incorporate cross-domain solution capabilities. These mission planning, mission execution, and mission analysis functions meet the National Defense Strategy and Interim National Security Strategic Guidance key objectives. The NGNMPS will conduct preflight mission planning, data loading, rehearsals, mission execution and post mission analyses at all appropriate security classification levels. The Stores Planning and Weaponeering Module, also referred to as Weaponeering and Stores Planning (WASP) (Proj 2311), is an integrated software product that allows aircrew to determine the best combinations of weapons and delivery conditions to achieve the desired level of target damage. The WASP program performs detailed weapons employment planning for F/A-18 and E/A-18G aircraft. The WASP program provides inherent safety checks which eliminate weapon delivery solutions that violate aircraft T/M/S specific safety-of-flight envelopes. FY24 and out includes funding for the research and development in order to develop WASP for other Navy and Marine Corps platforms, and support WASP development and integration with the Next Generation Naval Mission Planning System (NGNMPS). The total cost of the STORM Middle Tier Acquisition effort is $48.0 million, including RDT&E and procurement of prototype units. The STORM 804 program is fully funded through FY24. The total cost of the NGNMPS Middle Tier Acquisition effort is $238.8 million, including RDT&E and procurement of prototype units. The NGNMPS program is fully funded across the Future Years Defense Program. NGNMPS will transition from an MTA program being executed under 804 authority at the end of FY24. JUSTIFICATION FOR BUDGET ACTIVITY: This program is funded under SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT & DEMONSTRATION (SDD) because it includes those projects that have passed Milestone B approval and are conducting engineering and manufacturing development tasks aimed at meeting validated requirements prior to full-rate production decision.
