Multi-Mission Signal Processor

Abstract

Multi-Mission Signal Processor (MMSP): The development of MMSP provides simultaneous Anti-Air Warfare (AAW)/Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) multi-mission capability for DDG 51 class ships as part of the Aegis Modernization Program. This capability is utilized for DDG 113 and follow new construction and Aegis Ashore. Modifies SPY-1D transmitters to enable dual beam for reduced frame times and better reaction time, provides stability for all D(V) waveforms, and avoids operational degradation. The SPY-1 radar system detects, tracks, and supports engagements of a broader range of threats. MMSP improves performance in littoral, ducted clutter, electronic attack (EA), and chaff environments and provides greater commonality in computer programs and equipment. This effort also provides for the development of MMSP on Destroyers Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) refresh and MMSP/MMSP-R technology refresh. MMSP/AEGIS Linear Processing System (ALPS) integration provides adjunct processing for data collection. Starting in FY25, funding has been realigned within PE 0604501N from PU 3232 to 3301 to gain contractual efficiencies and program flexibility.
