Sub Tact Comm System
Abstract
The Submarine Tactical Communications System budget item (1411) funds the Common Submarine Radio Room (CSRR) program, which provides a fully integrated and tested communications architecture of Command, Control, Communications, Computers, and Intelligence (C4I) program of record components, providing secure voice and data communications for all submarine classes. The CSRR program, via an end-to-end integrated test environment, ensures that submarine communications systems: (a) enhance assured information transfer via automated and integrated network management; (b) support assured command and control, (c) provide submarine Internet Protocol (IP) connectivity; (d) are interoperable with United States and allied/coalition military networks; (e) provide improved reliability, maintainability, and availability. The CSRR program includes the development of a network-controlled computer based trainer to support training requirements. The CSRR program provides systems engineering efforts associated with implementation of new technology allowing submarines to connect to the global information grid. The new technology will also ensure the submarine's continued ability to participate in network-centric warfare and exploit its inherent stealth capabilities in support of the Navy, Joint, and allied/coalition fight to achieve total battlespace information dominance. The CSRR program is authorized to field Increment 1 as multiple block upgrades (Versions). CSRR modernization activities bring new capabilities, address new requirements, resolve End-of-Life (EOL) and obsolescence issues or correct known system deficiencies. CSRR Increment 1 Version 4 enables critical submarine C4I capabilities (i.e., MUOS, Link-16, Iridium, GPS Anti-Jam, GPS M-Code) and addresses obsolescence and EOL issues of radio room infrastructure supporting critical Navy C4I systems (e.g., NMT, DMR, CANES, ADNS, SLVR). Additional efforts funded under the Submarine Tactical Communications System budget item include (1) Undersea Platforms Special Communications, which provides fully integrated and tested Undersea Assured Command & Control (UAC2) communications systems; and (2) Link 16, which provides an enhanced submarine communication system by providing a two-way Tactical Data Link (TDL) processing capability on all classes of Submarines. The Link 16 program provides submarine Command & Control systems with Link 16 tactical network communications capabilities for situational awareness in a contested environment and is a key element in naval tactical networking. The new technology ensures the submarine's continued ability to participate in network-centric warfare and exploit its inherent stealth capabilities in support of the Navy, Joint, and allied/coalition fight to achieve total battlespace information dominance. JUSTIFICATION FOR BUDGET ACTIVITY: These programs are funded under ENGINEERING and MANUFACTURING DEVELOPMENT because they encompass development and demonstration of new end-items.
