Electronic Warfare Development

Abstract

This Program Element encompasses operational system development for tactical Electronic Warfare (EW) terrestrial (ground) employment applications. The systems under this program provide the Army with the capability to detect, identify, locate, collect/process, report, and engage (disrupt, degrade or deny) hostile forces to prevent their effective use of communications & non-communications networks, counter-mortar/counter-battery radars, surveillance radars, electronically fused munitions and other enemy threats using the Electro-Magnetic Spectrum (EMS). Project CE2 supports the Prophet Enhanced Program of Record, the Army's current terrestrial SIGINT system. Funding provides for development of relevancy efforts for state-of-the-art Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) exploitation to pace near peer and emerging enemy threat signals as well as engineering to mitigate component obsolesce. Prophet Enhanced's primary mission is to provide 24-hour Situation Development and Information Superiority to the supported maneuver brigade enabling the most effective engagement of enemy forces. Prophet Enhanced provides a modular, scalable, open architecture based system solution optimized for ease of use in a variety of configurations. FY 2022 funds the Prophet Enhanced efforts (Project CE2); Project CE2 is not a new start, this funding supports the Prophet Enhanced Program of Record transitioning from Engineering and Manufacturing Development (PE 0304270A / EW5) to Operational System Development (CE2).
