Shipboard EW Improvement Program
Abstract
The Surface Electronic Warfare Improvement Program (SEWIP) provides enhanced Electronic Warfare (EW) capabilities to existing and new ship combat systems to improve Anti Ship Missile Defense (ASMD), counter-targeting and counter surveillance capabilities, as well as improved situational awareness. The SEWIP employs an evolutionary acquisition and incremental development strategy to upgrade surface EW capabilities via a series of block upgrades to the AN/SLQ-32(V) system, and field EW improvements to keep pace with the ASMD threat. SEWIP will provide required EW capabilities and will incorporate technology advances as they become available to provide incremental upgrades and improvements in performance. SEWIP Block 1 is segmented into Block 1A, and Block 1B. Block 1A upgrades the AN/SLQ-32 pulse-processing computers and the display console allowing the system to more quickly identify threats and better display the information to the operator. Block 1A Electronic Surveillance Enhancements (ESE) pulse processing computers and the Improved Control and Display (ICAD) Human System Interface (HSI) console partially open the electronic warfare system architecture to support subsequent EW capability upgrades. Block 1B adds adjunct sensors for special signal intercept, including Specific Emitter Identification (SEI), and High Gain High Sensitivity (HGHS) (Block 1B3), a critical improvement for threat correlation, situational awareness, and extending the battle space.
