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. In FY 2012, the program began with a Rapid Response Effort (RRE) which was completed in FY 2014. The RRE consisted of the evaluation and integration of commercially available decoys. The Decoy Development Effort (DDE) consists of the development and evaluation of a long duration, active electronic offboard decoy system (payload) integrated on an existing flight vehicle (MH-60R/MH-60S), integration with ship and air systems, and a government software development effort to integrate AOEW into the Soft Kill Coordination System (SKCS) to gain maximum effectiveness from the decoy through coordination with an onboard system. The DDE Preliminary Design contract was awarded Dec 2016 followed by a System Requirements Review (SRR)/System Functional Review (SFR) leading to a Preliminary Development Review (PDR) in Sep 2017. The Engineering and Manufacturing Development (E&MD) Option was awarded in Sep 2017. In the DDE/E&MD effort, the program is developing and integrating Engineering Development Models (EDMs) with the System of Systems (SOS) partners to prepare for the program's test phase. Also included in the DDE/E&MD effort is the development of the Technical Data Package (TDP). The TDP is targeted to be completed and delivered in FY22. The DDE Test and Certification effort encompasses the test phase of the program. Factory Qualification Test (FQT) and developmental/operational testing will be completed as part of this effort. FQT will complete in FY22. Developmental and operational testing is scheduled to complete in FY23. Operational test results (Initial Operational Test & Evaluation) are planned to support the Full Rate Production (FRP) decision scheduled for FY23, however, reductions taken in FY23-FY26 may jeopardize the completion of operational test. As part of the MH-60R/S Flight Certification effort, the program is required to complete NAVAIR Avionics Operating Program (AOP) software development and Flight Certification, which are critical to support fielding of the AOEW decoy. The AOP software supports integration of the AOEW decoy with the MH-60R/S airframe and is required for successful completion of Flight Certification. AOP software development will complete in FY21. Flight Certification testing includes Ground and Flight Jettison, Flight Test for Mission Performance / Spec Compliance Flight Test, Functional Software Test, and Decoy Fit and Egress Test, which ensures operational Safety of Flight and is critical to successful decoy fielding. NAVAIR Flight Certification will complete in FY23.
