Fleet Force Protection and Defense Against Undersea Threats

Abstract

Fleet Force Protection and Defense against Undersea Threats efforts include applied research for complementary sensor and processing technologies for platform protection. Current small platforms (surface, subsurface and airborne) have little to no situational awareness (SA) or self-protection against air, surface, and asymmetric threats. A goal of this activity is to provide these platforms with effective self-protection. The technology areas specific to platform protection will develop individual, multispectral electro-optical (EO), infrared (IR), radio frequency (RF), electro-magnetic (EM), visual and acoustic or chemical sensors/biosensors and associated processing. To defend platforms from current and advanced threats in at-sea littoral environments and in port, these technologies must improve multispectral detection and distribution of specific threat information.
