Patriot Product Improvement
Abstract
PATRIOT is an advanced Surface-to-Air guided missile system with a high probability of kill, capable of operation in the presence of Electronic Countermeasures (ECM) and able to conduct multiple simultaneous engagements against high performance air breathing targets and ballistic missiles likely to be encountered by U.S. Forces. The PATRIOT Product Improvement Program provides for the upgrade of the PATRIOT System through individual materiel changes and upgrades to the PATRIOT system to address operational lessons learned, enhancements to joint force interoperability, and other system performance improvements to provide overmatch capability with the emerging threat. The hardware and software funding provides for the identification, analysis, design and test improvements to the PATRIOT system against the evolving threat. This effort supports work with national agencies to evaluate, assess, and develop means to mitigate threat trends and specific threat developments potentially impacting system performance. Specific improvements may be developed and fielded under this task if warranted. The effort maintains the Mission Tailoring Database, responding to immediate tactical concerns. Database updates are fielded between major software upgrades as necessary. Funding provides authority to identify, analyze, design and test materiel solutions to counter cybersecurity and electronic warfare shortcomings to all elements of the Lower Tier Battle Space. FY2019 base dollars in the amount of $65.369 million support the continuance of Software Improvement for Threat Evolution, Advanced Electronic Counter Measures (AECM), Assured Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT), Combat ID enhancements, Tasks 2, 6, and 7 activities, listed under project DV8.
