Physical Security Equipment - SD ED

Abstract

The Physical Security Equipment (PSE) program provides for Air Force Integrated Base Defense Security Systems (IBDSS) improvements and enhancements, to include the demonstration and testing of PSE systems related to Force Protection. This program supports the protection of tactical, fixed, and nuclear weapons systems, AF personnel and AF facilities. The PSE program includes spectrum planning for radio frequency (RF), communication security (cyber), information assurance requirements, integration and interoperability command control & communication (3) platform & components. This Program Element also includes funding for Force Protection Commercial Off the Shelf (FP COTS) market research, evaluation and testing. Force Protection programs are inherently subject to rapid changes in the operational environment and will retain sufficient Program flexibility to meet changes in location, scope and capability in order to protect Air Force people, facilities and warfighting assets. The Defender Multi-Domain Command, Control and Communications (DMDC3) is an initiative developing the foundational structure of IBDSS to provide a platform that integrates the computing power, the means of communication, and the tools for situational awareness. PSE efforts support Modular Open Source Architecture (MOSA) standards to enable faster installations and greater interoperability to address the Chief of Staff of the Air Force (CSAF's) ‘Fight the Base' goals. Air Base Ground Defense (ABGD) supports all Developmental Testing, Evaluation, Integration, Certification, and Proof of Concept for technology integration management and interoperability. IBDSS FY22 developmental efforts will continue to evaluate and test state-of the art technology to support integrated based security systems installations worldwide, continue to improve and integrate COTS efforts into IBDSS physical security equipment, as well as further develop, integrate and test Defender Multi-Domain Command, Control and Communications (DMDC3) software applications. Airbase Air Defense Systems (ABADS) Airbase Air Defense Systems (ABADS) is the principal Air Force Counter-small Unmanned Aircraft System (C-sUAS) USAF program to defend against the emerging and growing small unmanned aerial system threat. This program protects strategic assets vital to national security when bedded down and when on the move. It also protects personnel deployed in theater. ABADS also includes efforts related to Counter rocket, artillery, and mortar (C-RAM) that provide an early, dependable warning of incoming rocket, artillery and mortar threats to enable quick action to protect base personnel and base assets. In FY 2021 the C-sUAS program transitions to Airbase Air Defense Systems (ABADS) PE 27522F and WSC 640410. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver Base Physical Security System capabilities for emergent or unanticipated weapon system capability. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program element 0605831F. In FY19 $0.00M and in FY20 $0.263M was expended for civilian pay expenses in this program element. In FY21 $0.994M is forecasted for civilian pay expenses in this program element. The FY 2020 funding currently does not show the 1.6 million reprogramming increase for the C-RAM UON. This program is in Budget Activity 5, System Development and Demonstration (SDD) because it has passed Milestone B approval and is conducting engineering and manufacturing development tasks aimed at meeting validated requirements prior to full rate production.
