Tactical Support Center-Integration
Abstract
The FY 16 to FY 17 increase is due to adding additional funding for cybersecurity efforts. The primary role of the AN/SQQ-34 Aircraft Carrier Tactical Support Center (CV-TSC) is fulfillment of Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) and Surface Warfare (SUW) coordination functions utilizing data received from various sources (including Off-Board Aircraft Sensor and Track Data, Local Platform ASW/SUW Sensors, Link-16 Track Data, Ship Self Defense System (SSDS) Platform Track Data, Global Command and Control System Over-the-Horizon Track Data, and Environmental and Threat Databases) to assess the threat and assist the Tactical Action Officer (TAO) and Composite Warfare Commander (CWC) in effectively applying available resources to support CVN self-defense. This includes the generation of real-time ASW/SUW information and recommendations, tactical planning and employment of ASW/SUW aircraft operating organically from the Aircraft Carrier or under the tactical control of the Carrier Strike Group (CSG), ASW/SUW sensor data processing and analysis, and distribution of tactically significant data to the appropriate decision makers. Aircraft supported or to be supported include MH-60R/S, P-8, UCLASS, Triton, and future ASW/SUW aircraft. CV-TSC functionality updates are implemented through an evolutionary acquisition approach, providing phased incremental builds that are developed, tested, certified and fielded. Functional improvements are accomplished through the following initiatives: 1) maintaining interoperability with the local CVN warfare systems through current and future interfaces; 2) continuing to support mission data exchange and tactical control with current and future ASW/SUW aircraft and their mission systems; 3) improving track and sensor processing and analysis techniques as new track and sensor data becomes available; 4) improving mission planning support for the ASW/SUW missions conducted from the CVN; 5) improving data recording, reconstruct, and distribution to meet the decreasing timelines associated with getting tactically significant data to other end users both on and off platform; and 6) improving embedded simulation and training capabilities to enable operator proficiencies. This project also provides development of cybersecurity efforts. The purpose of this effort is to define and develop enterprise Combat System cybersecurity solutions that will provide a set of boundary defense capabilities for the Combat System, a set of centralized Combat Systems-level cybersecurity capabilities, and a set of element-level cybersecurity protections. The boundary defense capabilities will protect and detect threats entering and leaving the Combat System. The centralized Combat System-level cybersecurity capabilities will provide cyber situational awareness and management (e.g. malware detection, file integrity verification, etc.) of various cybersecurity protection and detection capabilities. Element-level cybersecurity protections will provide additional measures to ensure system integrity. Planning will also commence for the integration of the Combat System elements and sensors into the boundary defense and centralized cybersecurity capabilities.
