JMPS Framework (FW) Version V1.3.5 , V1.4 & Common Capabilities

Abstract

Due to the end of Microsoft support for Windows XP in April 2014, there is a requirement to change to Windows Operating System (OS) 7. FW Version 1.4 will incorporate Windows OS 7 and provide additional capabilities for all naval aircraft to include Service Oriented Architecture, air drop, air refueling and enhanced installation. Funding for FW 1.4 will be used to support system engineering processes, management interface controls, software architectural analysis, requirements management and a centralized website for Mission Planning Environment (MPE) developers. A reduction to USAF Increment IV (PE 0208006F) led to a Critical Change Review in accordance with Weapon Systems Acquisition Reform Act (WSARA), causing FW Version 1.4 to be delayed. In order to accommodate the MPE and platform operational flight program (OFP) development schedules of EA-6B, V-22 and F/A-18, which also require the use and testing of Windows OS 7, the program needs to acquire FW Version 1.3.5 as an interim solution. Since MPE and platform OFP development may take up to 2 years to prepare for a new OS, FW Version 1.3.5 will incorporate the correct OS without significantly delaying the MPE and platform OFP development and test schedules. Migration to .NET environment in FW 1.4 will enable interoperability improvements through utilization of services and will be supported by the Global Information Grid-Enterprise Services. Common Capabilities software updates augment core mission planning capabilities across multiple aircraft.
