Strat Into Medal, Tactics & Trng Organic Force
Abstract
The C4I, Tactics, Mission Planning (CTMP), and Post Mission Analysis (PMA) program is an initiative that has evolved into both developing MEDAL modules for each next generation MCM system as well as developing next generation Tactics. Additionally, CTMP provides threat data and system requirements and capabilities to the Mine Warfare and Environmental Decisions Aid Library (MEDAL) software development effort. Finally, CTMP develops Net-Centric Sensor Analysis for Mine Warfare (NSAM) as an open systems architecture (OSA) with compliant plug-ins of common post-mission analysis tools for next generation MCM sensor data. NSAM will replace the Organic Post-Mission Analysis (OPMA) system and other stand alone system PMA tools. NSAM analysis tools will provide the capability to perform tactical and environmental PMA on data collected from various MCM sensor systems. NSAM will be developed in incremental builds. The goal is to reduce the mission timeline and increase the mission effectiveness with respect to mission analysis. NSAM will have a training mode to maintain operator proficiency and PMA skill set. NSAM will be the replacement for Organic Post Mission Analysis (OPMA) in the Fleet, integrating ALMDS, AMNS, AN/AQS-20 Sensor PMA into the first delivered Fleet Build. Future incremental builds will add support for additional MCM sensors and weapons systems. NSAM provides multi-data set, multi-user, tactical & environmental PMA, contact management. OSA and Agile software development processes will reduce the cost for adding future MCM systems. The analysis results from PMA are provided to the MEDAL, reducing false call reporting for tactical decision making. NSAM will implement cybersecurity requirements using the new Risk Management Framework (RMF) process. The tactics training organic force is supported with integrated tactics development, theory development, and integrated tactics training. To date, the project has been focused on the Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) with support to MCM Mission Module (MM) detachments (DETs) and Aviation detachments (AVDETs) and all the related integrated tactics support from planning, execution, post-mission analysis and includes to contact management automation methods. Additional efforts that the project supports include doctrinal updates, as well as new overall MCM development.
