Naval Coastal Warfare Surv and C4I Sys
Abstract
The FY2019 funding request was reduced by $0.563 million to account for the availability of prior year execution balances. The Navy Expeditionary project supports the Navy Expeditionary Combat Command (NECC) mission to detect, deter or interdict potential threats to DoN assets using agile, modular and scalable technology. NECC units have a number of current and future Command, Control, Communications, Computers & Intelligence (C4I) technological requirements for Tactical/Command Operations Center, tactical vehicles, combatant craft, and dismounted personnel. NECC operations require units to maintain effective command and control, develop and display a common tactical picture, and share intelligence and current operational information with higher headquarters, subordinate units, joint forces and coalition allies. Small, Medium, and Large Scale Communication Systems (LSCS) are the C4I hub for the NECC; Navy Enterprise Tactical Command and Control (NETC2) is the converged LSCS baseline. Future C4I research and development include enhanced information transport, network cyber security posture, assured communications in denied environments along with agility and mobility. Funding is required for testing and evaluation of cyber security issue associated with obsolescence of network items and if not addressed will impact the ability of the Program Office to maintain system accreditation under Risk Management Framework (RMF) revoking multiple LSCS assets authority to connectivity on the Department of Defense Information Network (DoDIN). Efforts are in alignment with NECC's strategic Expeditionary Warfare Improvement Program (EXWIP) Integrated Priority Capability List (IPCL) priorities and maintain alignment with greater DoD initiatives, such as Joint Information Environment (JIE), Mission Partner Environment (MPE) in order to maintain interoperability and drive down DoN enterprise costs. The future of large scale communications assets such as Mobile Ashore Support Terminal (MAST), Ruggedized Deployable Satellite/Tactical Data Network (RDSAT/TDN) and Deployable Expeditionary Network-Medium (DEXNet-M) supporting Surveillance Control Central, Expeditionary (ESCC) formerly Radar Sonar Surveillance Center (RSSC) will be converging to a common baseline, the Navy Enterprise Tactical Command and Control (NETC2). Next generation air, surface and subsurface surveillance systems, as well as enhanced C4I capabilities, are required to meet operational objectives. 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 efforts will be identified within NECC strategic Expeditionary Warfare Improvement Program (EXWIP) Integrated Priority Capability List (IPCL) priorities to increase agility, mobility and network security posture. Additional efforts will be driven by greater DoD initiatives, such as Joint Information Environment (JIE) Inc II, in order to maintain interoperability and drive down DoN enterprise costs. Identity Dominance System (IDS) supports the Navy's Visit, Board, Search and Seizure (VBSS) teams conducting Expanded Maritime Interception Operations (MIO) with a biometric capability. IDS provides the Navy with a means to collect and process identity information in the conduct of maritime and expeditionary operations. There are three key aspects of this capability: 1) Enable forces to rapidly identify unknown individuals encountered in the conduct of operations. 2) Verify an unknown individual's claimed identity. 3) Enable forces to update, manage, and share identity information on friendly, neutral, and enemy individuals in support of identity operations (IdOps). To support IdOps and achieve identity dominance for expeditionary and naval forces, the future biometrics collection and processing equipment needs to be smaller, lighter, and more efficient with respect to computing power and speed when compared against the current system. The equipment needs to take advantage of enhanced communications capabilities, be able to store the appropriate amount of data to collect biometric samples, match the samples against an internal database and reach near real time operations with connectivity to the DoD biometrics database. In addition to Navy VBSS MIO, IDS also supports the Expeditionary Exploitation Unit One (EXU-1) expeditionary missions. IDS must continue to mature and adapt to the changing threat environment and emerging requirements to support these missions.
