Naval Coastal Warfare Surv and C4I Sys
Abstract
The Navy Expeditionary C4I 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 Navy Expeditionary Combat Force (NECF); Navy Enterprise Tactical Command and Control (NETC2) is the converged LSCS baseline. Future C4I research and development includes implementation of The NETC2(V)3, Rapid Response Kit V3 (RRK(V)3), and Navy Expeditionary Tactical Entry Points (NExTEP) at the Fleet Network Operations Centers (NOC), which supports the NECC Type Commander's (TYCOM) vision of a smaller footprint C2 system with reduced Fleet administration and patching requirements and a single domain and single user identity across all deployed systems. Future C4I research and development will enhance 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 issues 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.
