Tactical Support Center-Integration
Abstract
The CV-TSC project delivers ASW and SUW combat capability to the Aircraft Carrier. CV-TSC integrates sensor data from Off-Board Aircraft, Organic Platform Sensors, Link-16 Track Data, SSDS Track Data, Global Command and Control System (GCCS) Over-the-Horizon Track Data, and Environmental and Threat Databases to assess the threat and assist the TAO and CWC to effectively employ overall CVN self-defense capabilities. CV-TSC generates real-time ASW/SUW information and recommendations, tactical planning and employment of ASW/SUW aircraft, ASW/SUW sensor data processing and analysis, and distribution of tactically significant data. Aircraft supported include: MH-60R/S, P-8, CBARS, Triton, and future ASW/SUW aircraft. System development is 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; 6) Improving embedded simulation and training capabilities to enable operator proficiencies; and 7) Implementing cyber-security measures. This project also provides development of Boundary Defense Capability (Cybersecurity) capabilities: The purpose of this effort is to define and develop enterprise Hull Mechanical & Electrical (HM&E) System cybersecurity solutions that will provide: protections from cyber-attacks such as boundary defense capabilities that will protect threats entering and leaving HM&E systems, physical protections, message authentication and encryption methods; Detection solutions for system anomalies and attacks at the boundaries, on hosts, networks and backplanes; and provide for operator awareness (e.g. malware detection, file integrity verification, etc.); Reaction solutions that will enable operator and system responses to an attacks; and Recovery methods that will enable for a system to quickly get back to a good known state. Planning will also commence for the integration of cyber solutions into specific HM&E control systems (e.g. Machinery Control, Steering Control, etc.).
