Advanced Offboard EW
Abstract
3316 - The Advanced Offboard EW (AOEW) program is for the development of long duration off-board decoys integrated with onboard systems for EW coordination to counter identified EW gaps (additional details classified) in response to an urgent operational need from the Fleet that has been approved by the CNO for execution. Currently no counter to the threat exists. The program consists of a Rapid Response Effort (RRE) to provide an initial, limited decoy capability to the Fleet by 2014 and a Decoy Development Effort (DDE) culminating in the delivery of a fully supported, full capability system. The RRE (FY12-FY14) consists of the evaluation and integration of commercially available decoys. The DDE (commenced in FY12) consists of the development and evaluation of a long duration, active electronic offboard decoy system (payload only) integrated on an existing flight vehicle and an onboard/offboard EW coordinator fully able to counter the threat. FY15 AOEW includes a government software development effort to integrate AOEW into the Softkill Coordinator (SKC) to gain maximum effectiveness from the AOEW decoy through coordination with on board systems.
