ATDLS Integration
Abstract
This project develops and improves the Navy's Tactical Data Link (TDL) systems. It includes the Advanced Tactical Data Link Systems (ATDLS) Integration Programs, specifically Link 16 Network, Command and Control Processor (C2P) and Link Monitoring and Management Tool (LMMT). ATDLS Integration Program develops new and improved capabilities for Navy TDL users. The Navy Link 16 Network Increment II consists of Dynamic Network Management (DNM), Cryptographic Modernization (CM) and Frequency Remapping (FR). C2P Technology Refresh (TR) and C2P Interoperability will modernize legacy C2P processing components to address C2P component obsolescence and fleet interoperability issues. C2P is a critical component in the Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) architecture. C2P Modernization is a service life extension program required to sustain C2P support of Naval Integrated Air and Missile Defense (IAMD) and BMD capabilities. Link 22 development and integration into the C2P allows for standard data link communication with Coalition forces. LMMT will upgrade commercial off-the-shelf hardware and modernize software operating systems. LMMT will improve TDL performance monitoring and management in support of the Integrated Air & Missile Defense (IAMD) and Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) missions. Link 16 Network Increment II: (1) Develop and implement CM and FR mandates as a product improvement into Link 16 terminals and integration into shore sites, ship (NGC2P, Next Generation Command and Control Processor), and current Navy Joint Tactical Information Distribution System (JTIDS) airborne platforms; (2) Developmental Testing (DT) / Operational Testing (OT) of Navy platform CM/FR modifications; (3) provide product improvement for continued production capability Multifunctional Information Distribution System (MIDS) on Ship (MOS) Modernization (MOS Mod) and extensibility to new Tactical Data Link capabilities of shipboard Link 16 terminals, (4) qualification of replacement shipboard Link 16 antenna to replace end of life existing antenna. FY 2018 Justification: Conduct government testing of the JTIDS CM/FR Low Rate Initial Production units and deficiency correction. Initiate government developmental and operational testing. Prepare for JTIDS CM/FR fielding decision review. The E-2C Program Office (PMA-231) will complete software modifications to the E-2C host processing required to implement the CM/FR capability. PMA 231 will complete E-2C government testing of JTIDS CM/FR. Funding will also provide for MOS CM/FR to complete integrated testing and deficiency correction of the MOS CM/FR with the High-Power Amplifier (HPA) Switch necessary for integration of the MIDS LVT Block Updated 2 configuration. MOS will initiate developmental testing to support follow on operational testing. To address continued production capability, fielding of CM/FR capability and extensibility to new Tactical Data Link capabilities, funding will provide for deficiency correction of MOS Mod and associated MIDS JTRS terminals, continued contractor integration and certification, and conduct of developmental and operational testing. JTIDS, and MOS CM/FR, and MOS Mod efforts are in support of NSA and Joint Chiefs of Staff mandates for the modernization of the cryptographic algorithm used in Link 16 terminals and the Department of Defense and the Department of Transportation Memorandum of Agreement for the implementation of a capability to remap any 14 of the existing 51 frequencies in order to remain operable within the United States and its possessions. All Link 16 terminals are required to have this capability to support Link 16 Interoperability. Space and Naval Warfare (SPAWAR) Systems Centers will continue government testing and deficiency correction of the new Link 16 antenna, which will replace the obsolete AS-4127A. Command and Control Processor (C2P) Technology Refresh (TR) funds a product improvement effort to the legacy C2P hardware components and allows legacy C2P software to execute on modern processors, thereby extending its effective service life. Product improvement efforts will include C2P software development, hardware integration, update of the C2P development environment to promote sustainability and testing to include follow-on test and evaluation (FOT&E) of the C2P TR baseline. Software development contractors will transform C2P legacy software code with modern supportable software code. C2P, Phase 3, Increment 2 is planned to include Link 22, which is a modernized replacement for Link 11, providing beyond line of sight (BloS) tactical data communication system utilizing fixed frequency or frequency hopping techniques in the high frequency (HF) (3-30 Megahertz (MHz)) and/or the ultra high frequency (UHF) (225-400 MHz) bands. C2P Modernization funds the transition of the C2P's legacy CMS-2Y software code to a modern software language. Transition to a modern software language is required to sustain the system software and to enable more affordable transition to new hardware processing components as a result of commercial off the shelf processor obsolescence. FY 2018 Justification: Continue C2P Technology Refresh development and Link 22 software builds. Continue C2P Modernization engineering assessment. Link Monitoring and Management Tool (LMMT) is a new system delivered on commercial off-the-shelf hardware providing gateway functions for multiple Tactical Data Link (TDL) interface, routing and display of TDL data to include Link 16 and Joint Range Extension (JRE). LMMT is also capable of performing TDL network planning, monitoring, management, data forwarding between the TDLs and providing tactical data to the Global Command and Control System (GCCS) for establishing the common operational picture. LMMT requirements will be incrementally developed and delivered in capability drops via the Joint Capabilities Integration Development System (JCIDS) IT Box approach. FY 2018 Justification: Conduct CD 2 developmental testing / operational testing (DT/OT) and CD 2 fielding technical review (FTR).
