UNMANNED SURFACE VEHICLE ENABLING CAPABILITIES
Abstract
Project 3067 provides resources to develop enabling capabilities and critical technologies for the unmanned platforms in the Navy's Future Surface Combatant Force (FSCF) and Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) Family of Systems (FoS). This includes the development and transition of technologies, standardizing Autonomy architectures, Command & Control (C2) systems, USV Integrated Combat Systems (USV ICS) and learning through demonstration during both ashore and underway fleet exercises to support key capabilities (autonomy, communications, USV Operations Centers, sensors/component integration, data management, machinery qualification and payload prototyping) for operating Unmanned Surface Vehicles to meet mission needs. These efforts continue to maintain federated systems while encouraging the transition of Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR), Future Naval Capabilities (FNC), other DOD Science and Technology (S&T) efforts, and current Program of Record (PoR) systems to support a modular system for enhanced performance and affordability. The USV Enabling Capabilities program is responsible for the development and improvement of USV autonomous systems, payloads, and sensors in support of machinery and Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) and USV Integrated Combat Systems (USV ICS) operations on USVs. Enabling Capabilities leads the development, modification, engineering, and integration activities, facilitating the unmanned operations of surface vessels. This includes capabilities to support autonomy, C2 beyond line of sight, monitoring, and securing sensitive equipment from remote locations. These capabilities support Medium Unmanned Surface Vehicles (MUSV), Large Unmanned Surface Vessels (LUSV), and Unmanned Operations Centers. Project 3067 also provides a Navy-wide program to develop required standards for Autonomy, C2, Payload Interface, and USV Operations Centers in support of future unmanned surface vehicle development.
