Common Avionics

Abstract

This project provides for the identification, study, design, development, demonstration, test, evaluation, and qualification of standard avionics capabilities for Navy use, and wherever practicable, use across all Services and Foreign Military Sales. Such air combat electronics developments include communications and airborne networking, navigation and sensors, flight avionics, safety systems, and flight mission information systems for both forward fit and retrofit aircraft. These efforts continue to maintain federated systems while encouraging transition of procurements to support a modular system for enhanced performance and affordability. Consideration is given up front to reduce acquisition costs through larger procurement quantities that satisfy multi-aircraft customer requirements and that reduce life cycle costs in the areas of reliability, maintainability, and training. JUSTIFICATION FOR BUDGET ACTIVITY: This program is funded under SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT AND DEMONSTRATION 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.

• Change Summary Explanation: The FY 2022 funding decrease of $1.605 million is due to miscellaneous rate adjustments. The FY 2022 funding request increase of $9.401 million is due to the following: Tactical Communication (TACCOM) increase by $8.265 million due to the development and integration of Advanced Crypto Capability (ACC), TSV 3.1.1 Single Channel Ground and Airborne Radio System (SINCGARS 3.1). Navy adjustment to fund TSV/SINCGARS modernization - Driven by DoD CIO's Capability Planning Guidance. Realigned $1.012M from PU 3371 MAGTF EW Interoperability Development, PE 0604270N to PU 0572 Common Avionics, PE 0605217N for Digital Interoperability (DI) / Marine Air Ground Task Force (MAGTF) Agile Networking Gateway Link (MANGL) for proper alignment of task resulting in zero sum adjustment. Common Mission Computing & Displays (CMCD) increased by $0.265 million in FY22 for a zero-sum realignment of funds with no new start to correct the appropriation from APN-5 to RDTE for the MULE lab to assess MCA processor performance and requirements to support the incorporation of a new HUD in the T-45 aircraft. Collaborative Warfare (CW) decreased by $0.141 million in FY22 due to a Navy Collaborative Warfare reduction. Schedule: Tactical Communications (TACCOM): Overall schedule changed due to the development and integration of Advanced Crypto Capability (ACC), TSV 3.1.1 Single Channel Ground, and Airborne Radio System (SINCGARS 3.1). Navy adjustment to fund TSV/SINCGARS modernization - Driven by DoD CIO's Capability Planning Guidance. Completes TRANSEC & Crypto Mod TSV Suite B in 2Q/22. Added Gen5A TSV 3.1.1 Crypto Mod Tactical Anti-Jam SINCGARS, SATURN commencing in 2Q/22. Added Gen6 TSV 3.1.1 Crypto Mod Tactical Anti-Jam SINCGARS, ACC, SATURN 4 commencing in 4Q/21. Nomenclature changed under T&E, remove delta certs and added distinct GEN5 and GEN6 certs. Removed OFP S/W Baseline and ECP Production Milestone and added Gen5/6 TSV 3.1.1 ECP Approval 1Q/22. Included Deliveries for all Gen5/6 Version Releases. Digital Interoperability (DI)/Marine Air Ground Task Force (MAGTF) Agile Networking Gateway Link (MANGL): FY21: Nomenclature title change from CDR to Design Review, change from 1Q/21 to 1Q/22; Test Articles CA Qty 4 change from 2Q/21 to 3Q/21. FY22: Nomenclature title change from Milestone C to MTA Rapid Prototype Approval, change from 4Q/22 to 3Q/21; Nomenclature title change from LRIP to Test Articles Contract Award Qty changed from six (6) to three (3); Nomenclature title change from ES/TEMPEST;DT Grnd Test/JTIC Test/Rpt/Cyber Test to the following: Qualification Testing, Cyber Security Tabletop. Nomenclature title change from DT & OT Flt Test/Rpt to Flight Demonstration Test/Report from 1Q/22-2Q/22 to commencing 3Q/22.
