Joint Counter Radio-Controlled IED Elec Warfare
Abstract
This project supports the defense objective of preventing terrorist and near peer operations against the US, allies, and partners. It provides for the research and development of Electronic Warfare (EW) systems, equipment, procedures, and tactical aids for all military services to counter the threat posed by Radio-Controlled Improvised Explosive Devices (RCIEDs)and to prevent initiation of RCIEDs across the spectrum of Joint military operations. It utilizes Joint requirements to provide a system of systems approach for a suite of equipment for mounted, dismounted, and fixed site operations, and develops; equipment, procedures, and tactical aids to make rapid improvements to performance, supportability and affordability, while maintaining pace with the evolving global RCIED threat. Joint Counter RCIED electronic Warfare (JCREW), Increment 1 Block 1 (I1B1) is the next generation of counter RCIED system of systems. JCREW includes fixed site, mounted and dismounted units, which provide countermeasures against the global RCIED threat. Key system design features include significant performance increases over current legacy systems, a modular open architecture system design to facilitate improvements to address current and future advanced threats, robust information assurance and security, and is net-capable for improved Communications and Control (C2). JCREW I1B1 supports global deployment and sustainment for all combatant commands providing increased protection to Warfighter against the evolving worldwide RCIED threats. This project also provides for the research, development, and systems engineering of related CREW systems, providing capability improvements to fielded systems based on ever-changing RCIED threats against EOD technicians. And it provides for research, development, and systems engineering of electronic forensic capabilities related to the technical exploitation of asymmetric threats, including RCIEDs, unmanned systems, and underwater mines. The information generated is used to increase the performance of CREW and other counter-IED systems, as well as enable development of new countermeasure capabilities. This project also provides for continued development and testing of JCREW Counter-Unmanned Aerial System (C-UAS) capabilities to support Fleet Forces Command C-UAS requirements. This includes the modification of JCREW hardware, software, threat loads, and advanced techniques, integration into JCREW systems, lab verification, and open air testing. Fielded JCREW systems will be upgraded with modified hardware, software and threat loads to keep pace with the evolving C-UAS threat.
