Tactical Edge Targeting

Abstract

TET is a collection of existing National Technical Means (NTM) and organic sensors that are fused and disseminated through existing networks in real-time to enable an enhanced tracking and targeting capability. The Army, Navy and Air Force are developing longer range weapons that will require reliable and accurate targeting data to detect, classify, identify, and target adversaries. Leverages existing large sensor investments across the U.S. Government (USG). Enhances tracking against hard targets in denied environments and maintains ability to securely communicate with these sensors in real-time. The United States Navy (USN) plans to integrate existing NTM and planned new sensors with existing service architectures to provide a low-cost, resilient, real-time tracking and targeting capability to supplement existing sensors. Due to the nature of these projects, specific applications and detailed plans are available at a higher classification level. FY 2022 will focus on continuing research, development, integration, and test of a robust System of Systems (SoS) capabilities mission context. As well as, incrementally implementing distributed lethality using High Side Fusion (HSF), National Tactical Integration (NTI), and Combat System integration (CSI) in Naval operational contexts. Additionally, TET will coordinate and transition Navy Integrated Fires Element (NIFE) tools into the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) cloud baseline as part of TET NIFE enhancements.
