Air Ops Cmd & Control (C2) Sys
Abstract
Common Aviation Command and Control System (CAC2S) is a coordinated modernization effort to replace the existing aviation command and control equipment of the Marine Air Command and Control System (MACCS) and to provide the Aviation Combat Element with the necessary hardware, software, equipment, and facilities to effectively command, control, and coordinate aviation operations. The CAC2S system will accomplish the MACCS missions with a suite of operationally scalable modules to support the Marine Air Ground Task Force (MAGTF), Joint, and Coalition Forces. The CAC2S integrates the functions of aviation command and control into an interoperable system that will support the core competencies of all Marine Corps warfighting concepts. The CAC2S, in conjunction with MACCS organic sensors and weapons systems, supports the tenets of Expeditionary Maneuver Warfare and fosters joint interoperability. CAC2S Increment I will replace legacy aviation command and control systems in the following Marine aviation agencies: Direct Air Support Center (DASC), Tactical Air Command Center (TACC), and Tactical Air Operations Center (TAOC). Theater Battle Management Core System (TBMCS) - Joint mandated Air War planning tool for the generation, dissemination and execution of the Air Tasking Order (ATO). TBMCS is an Air Force lead program, which provides the automated tools necessary to manage tactical air operations, execute area air defense and airspace management in the tactical area of operation, and coordinate operations with components of other military services. TBMCS is located at the Tactical Air Command Center (TACC), with remotes located throughout the Marine Air Ground Task Force (MAGTF). It is scalable, allowing for joint, coalition and service specific operations. It is an evolutionary acquisition program. Funds are for New Equipment training and On-Site fielding reps to support updated software and hardware fieldings, and to procure new hardware for TBMCS to leverage new technology and maintain relevance and capability. The Composite Tracking Network (CTN) - will provide the Marine Air Ground Task Force (MAGTF) Commander a ground based sensor netting solution that significantly improves situational awareness by correlating sensor measurement data (target position, speed, heading, Identification Friend and Foe (IFF), etc.) from local and remote radars in the Cooperative Engagement Capability (CEC) network, which is then provided to the warfighter in the form of composite, real-time, air surveillance tracks. The Marine Air Command and Control System (MACCS) Sustainment - consists of various command and control agencies designed to provide the Aviation Combat Element (ACE) commander with the ability to monitor, supervise and influence the application of Marine aviation assets in support of MAGTF operations. The MACCS Sustainment provides funding to keep these fielded systems ready, relevant and capable until their functions are replaced by the Common Aviation Command and Control System (CAC2S). Single Integrated Air Picture (SIAP) - is the product of fused, common, continual, unambiguous tracks of airborne objects within the surveillance area. A SIAP will be achieved through the use of a model-based architecture computerized specification (the Integrated Architecture Behavior Model, or IABM). The IABM provides the common architectural standard (Platform-Independent Model, or PIM) for systems that make up the joint SIAP SoS. Each of the Services, through their respective SIAP program offices, develops Platform-Specific Models (PSM) of the IABM that are used to develop SIAP solutions for incorporation into Service-designated platforms. Joint Cooperative Target ID Ground (JCTI-G), formerly known as Battlefield Target Identification Device (BTID) has been re-focused per DEPSECDEF guidance. The program has been changed from vehicle-vehicle Cooperative Target ID (CTI) to Fires on Dismounts CTI and Air-Ground CTI to meet the needs of the current fight. To support this direction, an Analysis of Alternatives (AoA) was initiated during FY10 based on guidance provided by the Vice Chief of Staff of the Army (VCSA) and Assistant Commandant of the Marine Corps (ACMC) and is being led by Joint Forces Command (JFCOM) . Simultaneous efforts will include: Dismount CTI technology development/technology maturation and technology down-select and preparing acquisition documentation to support an FY12 MS A decision. Combat Operations Center (COC) AN/TSQ-239 (V)2/3/4 is a deployable, self-contained, modular, scalable and centralized facility which provides digital, shared Command and Control/Situational Awareness functionalities to enhance the Common Operational Picture (COP) for the Command Element, Ground Command Element, Air Combat Element, and Logistics Combat Element. It is a commercial-off-the-shelf integrated hardware solution using unit provided radios, re-hosted tactical data systems, and available Marine Corps prime movers to transport the system. FY10 funds required for H/W refresh. Funding also supports 2 MEB Urgent Universal Needs Statement (UUNS) (Mar 09) to include OEF supplemental kits of various configurations, Tactical Collaboration Work Station (TCWS) integration (MCCDC) LOC and OIF Force retrograde. FY11 and FY12 funds support testing and IA certification activities of MODEL G, (V)1 and OTM capabilities. Remote Video Viewing Terminal (RVVT) - Provides warfighter with video connectivity to multiple types of aerial platforms (Pioneer, Dragon Eye, Raven B, Shadow, Predator, Fire Scout, and Litening Pod on P-3, AV8-B, and F/A-18). Data is displayed to Regimental Combat Teams and Forward Air Controller operators who coordinate with higher headquarters for fires. This is a New Start for FY10. Program Office is pursuing a MS B in FY11. Product is inteneded to fit into the cargo pocket of the uniform in order to reduce the size of the recievers. Joint Interface Control Office (JICO) Support System (JSS) - will provide net-centric services through a transformational management system to enable internet protocol-based networks of the future to operate efficiently with current tactical networks. It will manage complex tactical networks through an automated toolset and information repository that enables planning, management and analysis of tactical data link communications before, during and after operations.
