Dual-Band Radar
Abstract
Dual-Band Radar (DBR) Upgrades: Funding is for Dual Band Radar (DBR) System upgrades to implement cost savings initiatives for Volume Search Radar (VSR) modifications, supportability analysis and associated logistics product updates; future upgrades/technology insertion efforts for Multi-Function Radar (MFR)/VSR as a part of the DBR suite on CVN 78 Class ships and the MFR on DDG 1000 Class ships. Funding is also required to resolve the hardware and software issues discovered during the various test events to include: DTB2-411, SDTS testing, Land Based Testing and pertinent At-Sea test events. The upgrades will include all aspects of the radar system/subsystems, including hardware and software. Specific subsystem areas include the Array, Transmit/Receive (T/R) module, Receiver/Exciter, Signal Data Processor, Radome, and power/cooling systems. Upgrades and technology insertions are required to maintain the level of force protection needed for ship defense against all threats envisioned in the littoral environment. The supportability analysis and logistic products associated with these upgrades will also be developed and updated. DBR interface with Battle Force Tactical Trainer (BFTT): FY12-14 supports the design, development, and testing of an interface between the DBR and BFTT (AN/USQ-46) system that will provide training to enhance combat readiness for the CVN 78 crew. The DBR/BFTT interface development project initiates with the FY12 contract award and continues with validation testing in FY14.
