Navy Strategic Comm Project
Abstract
The E-6B Block I modification program corrects Airborne National Command Post program Follow-On Operational Test and Evaluation operational suitability deficiencies and addresses legacy system obsolescence issues. Without the Block I program, legacy system obsolescence will result in several unsupportable mission systems by 2010. Block I designs, develops, integrates, and tests a Multi-Level Security (MLS) system, Open Systems Architecture (OSA); replaces the intercommunications and Mission Computer Set; modifies the cooling, electrical, and Ultra-High Frequency Command, Control and Communications system; and addresses Internet Protocol Bandwidth Expansion impacts to pre-Block I baseline aircraft. Block I adds operator workstations throughout the aircraft to reduce workload and improve system interoperability, and provides a foundation for evolutionary upgrades. Other modifications (Block IA) include: an additional Auxiliary Power Unit to enhance power and cooling capabilities supporting the additional systems in the Multi-Level Security system, Open Systems Architecture, a Very Low Frequency Transmitter obsolescence replacement, and a High Power Transmit Set subsystem refurbishment.
