SEWIP Block 3
Abstract
SEWIP Block 3 is developing an advanced Electronic Attack (EA) capability to keep pace with the evolving Anti-Ship Missile Defense (ASMD) threat and counter-targeting required for the AN/SLQ-32(V) system. SEWIP Block 3 will provide the AN/SLQ-32(V)7 system for all surface ships (CVN, DDG, LHD) outfitted with the active variant of the AN/SLQ-32, mainly the (V)3 and (V)4, as well as select new construction platforms. The SEWIP Block 3 Acquisition leverages technology developed under the Office of Naval Research's (ONR) Integrated Topside (InTop) Science and Technology (S&T) effort. SEWIP Block 3 will continue to expand the integrated shipboard combat system by providing new integrated EA transmitters, arrays, and associated EA techniques. The AN/SLQ-32(V)7 integrates the new EA countermeasure (SEWIP Block 3) with the AN/SLQ-32(V)6. The AN/SLQ-32(V)6 includes an Electronic Support (ES) receiver (SEWIP Block 2), a High Gain High Sensitivity (HGHS) receiver (SEWIP Block 1B3), a Specific Emitter Identifier (SEI) receiver (SEWIP Block 1B2), display console, and backend electronics. SEWIP Block 3 includes the government software development and integration effort for a SoftKill Coordinator (SKC) to manage EA engagements. SEWIP Block 3 is developing an Electronic Warfare Test Bed (EWTB) to validate system performance via modeling and simulation. The FY23 funding request for SEWIP Block 3 will focus on the conduct of Land Based Testing (LBT) and preparation for TECHEVAL and Initial Operational Test & Evaluation (IOT&E). Additionally, training curriculum development, EWTB model upgrades, and software and hardware fixes/upgrades will continue through the test phase. Additionally, development efforts to increase High Power Amplifier (HPA) efficiency to reduce required power and fuel consumption will commence.
