Advanced MILSATCOM
Abstract
Develop and acquire Advanced Extremely High Frequency (AEHF) Military Satellite Communications (MILSATCOM) satellites, mission control segment and cryptography for survivable, anti-jam, worldwide, secure communications for the strategic and tactical warfighters. AEHF satellites will replenish the existing EHF system (Milstar) providing much higher capacity and data rate (5x increase over Milstar II) capabilities. AEHF is a cooperative program that includes International Partners (Canada, the United Kingdom, and the Kingdom of the Netherlands). AEHF Initial Operational Capability (IOC) was declared on 28 July 2015. Advanced EHF and Enhanced Polar System (EPS) Key Management Architectures (KMA) are not compatible with the National Security Agency's new enterprise system, Key Management Infrastructure (KMI). Per the Acquisition Decision Memorandum signed by (USD)AT&L on June 2013, the Air Force shall transition the AEHF and EPS KMA from the Electronic Key Management System (EKMS) to the KMI by March 2018. This funding supports development, acquisition, integration and testing of a Protected SATCOM Key Management Architecture (PKMA) that will replace the legacy EKMS to be compatible with the KMI by March 2018.
