ICBM Command & Control (C2) Applications

Abstract

The Command and Control Applications Program (C2AP) supports ICBM weapon system connectivity to the President and National Command Authorities. C2AP studies and assesses both legacy and future (non-GBSD baseline) C2 System technology applications. C2AP evaluates and develops assured, survivable, and secure communications and battlespace awareness between the missile Launch Control Centers and Launch Facilities essential for mission execution. Efforts include identifying and developing current and future technologies, as well as concepts that exploit state-of-the-art communications and information transfer techniques to both current and future ICBM systems. Products include studies, demonstrations and tests such as ICBM Weapon System C2 (WSC2) architectures, networks, and systems to meet nuclear command and control requirements.
