Assault Survivability Optimization
Abstract
Program was established to fill aircraft survivability gaps against current and future threat systems. This project addresses the Air Expendable Countermeasures (AECM) requirement maintaining a portfolio of countermeasures capable of defeating current and advancing surface-to-air and air-to-air threat missile systems to include the development, testing, and rapid fielding of advanced countermeasures and enhanced employment techniques needed to support fleet combat operations. Countermeasure dispensing techniques are developed using capability advancements tied to integrated Aircraft Survivability Equipment (iASE) investments by leveraging available sensor data in the iASE Suite. Improved countermeasure dispense techniques are rapidly delivered to operational Fleet aircraft thru Mission Data File updates via established software update processes. Also, new expendable countermeasure technology developed in industry, by other DoD Components and through other R&D programs can be transitioned to AECM Program of Record to meet the required operational platform survivability without further investment in iASE systems. This Project also includes/enables iASE which improves situational awareness for own-ship, wingman, and distributed command and control. Resources will be applied to the following areas: 1) Studies and evaluations to optimize employment of current countermeasures and iASE capabilities. 2) Development and demonstration of advanced expendable countermeasures and countermeasure techniques. 3) Testing and evaluation of advanced countermeasures. 4) Development of system software enhancements and integration for the testing and deployment of advanced countermeasure techniques. 5) Development of and upgrades to modeling tools and specialized equipment required to conduct evaluation of advanced countermeasures against proliferating threats.
