DD(X) Sys Design, Dev & Integration

Abstract

This project encompasses DDG 1000 development efforts required to deliver the Flight I DDG 1000 Class Ships. Major efforts include software requirements analysis, architectural and design code and unit testing, integration, qualification testing, and Independent Verification and Validation (IV&V) for Software Releases; execution of Integrated Power Systems (IPS) and ship control system testing and integration; Live Fire Test and Evaluation (LFT&E), Developmental Testing (DT), Integrated Testing (IT), and Operational Test (OT) in support of the Test and Evaluation Master Plan (TEMP) and development of Tactical Tomahawk Weapon Control System (TTWCS) software. Funding for previous years is included in PE 0604300N and under 0204202N Project Unit 4009, Advanced Gun System (AGS), on DD(X). Surface Strike After a comprehensive review of Zumwalt class requirements, Navy decided in November 2017 to refocus the primary mission of the Zumwalt Class Destroyers from Land Attack to Offensive Surface Strike. The funding requested in PB 19 will facilitate this change in mission and add lethal, offensive fires against targets afloat and ashore. These changes include integration of SM-6 capability, Maritime Strike Tomahawk Integration, and organic cryptologic collection equipment (SPECTRAL). In order to maintain the required radar signature, an upgrade in off-board platform communications to the Network Tactical Common Data Link (NTCDL) is also required, paired with the SPECTRAL system. The Advanced Gun Systems will remain on the ships, but in an inactive status for future use, when a gun round that can affordably meet the desired capability is developed and fielded.
