P-8A Spiral One Development
Abstract
The P-8A Multi-mission Maritime Aircraft (MMA) program is based on an evolutionary acquisition strategy consisting of sequential incremental enhancements to system capabilities that will retain cost-wise effectiveness for winning major combat operations through 2020. In order to pace the threat, the Increment 2 will incorporate the following capabilities into the P-8A: Advanced Extended Echo Ranging, Automatic Identification System, Aircraft Rapid Commercial-Off-The-Shelf Insertion (ARCI), Integrated Broadcast Services, and updates to the Tactical Operations Center (TOC), as well as additional Anti-Submarine (ASW) and Anti-Surface Warfare (ASuW) capabilities necessary to reduce the gap between the evolved legacy P-3C and P-8A systems. These capabilities and other emergent capability requirements such as the High Altitude Anti-Submarine Warfare (HAASW) capability, will be investigated during the Technology Development phase of Increment 2. Increment 2 will capitalize on existing plannned P-8A DABs to serve as decision points for entering phases of planned work.
