P-8 Improvements

Abstract

The P-8A Multi-mission Maritime Aircraft (MMA) program also includes a sequence of Rapid Capability Insertions (RCI) and rapid development efforts to respond to evolving threats which will retain cost-wise effectiveness for winning major combat operations. In order to pace the threat, these efforts will incorporate incremental software and hardware improvements to existing sensors, communications systems, mission systems, weapons capabilities and Tactical Operations Center (TOC)/TACMobile to build on the P-8A capability baseline. These capabilities, and other emergent capability requirements, will be prioritized either through the Navy Integration and Interoperability (I&I)-aligned Capability Prioritization Process (CPP), P-8A Tier 3 Capability Roadmap and/or through an Urgent Operational Need. The CPP process will be supported by detailed analysis and the maturation of developing technologies.
