Naval Coastal Warfare Surv and C4I Sys

Abstract

The Navy Expeditionary project supports the Navy Expeditionary Combat Command (NECC) mission to provide a single integrated force to detect, deter or interdict potential threats to DoN assets using agile, modular and scalable technology. NECC will develop and deploy adaptive force packages (AFPs) tailored for the specific missions to achieve greater efficiency and combat readiness. NECC units have a number of Command, Control, Communications, Computers (C4) current and future technological requirements for Tactical Operations Center, vehicles, craft, personnel capabilities and SATCOM availability. Next generation air, surface and subsurface surveillance systems, as well as enhanced C4I capabilities, are required to meet operational objectives. For each NECC operation, units maintain effective command and control, develop and display a tactical picture, and share intelligence and current operational information with higher, adjacent, and subordinate headquarters. These capabilities must be interoperable with higher and adjacent echelons of command (to include coalition allies) as well as with supporting elements to include joint forces. Future technologies are being evaluated as enabling capabilities to expand situational awareness, providing additional tactical decision aids to the local area commander. Future C4I research and development will be driven by requirements to increase agility, mobility and network security posture. Small, Medium and/or Large Scale Communication Systems (LSCS) are the Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) hub for the NECC Forces. LSCS suites are interoperable with joint systems and include communications HF, VHF, and UHF in all common modes with encrypted and clear voice and data, to include Tactical Data Link Network capability. The future of Large scale communications assets such as Mobile Ashore Support Terminal (MAST) and Deployable Expeditionary Network-Medium (DEXNet-M) supporting Radar Sonar Surveillance Center (RSSC) will be converging to a common baseline, the NECC Enterprise Tactical Command and Control (NETC2). Beginning in FY15 funding for CRF Modernization was moved to NECC C4ISR Modernization
