A/C SURV EQUIP DEV
Abstract
The objective of the Aircraft Survivability Equipment (ASE) Development project is to improve radio frequency (RF) ASE for Army aviation. Milestone Decision Authority (MDA) approved phase 1 of a phased/incremental path forward, supported by the user and HQDA. Phase I upgrades the Processor Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) of the AN/APR-39A(V)1 Radar Signal Detecting Set through modernization and reduced parts count. Along with improved maintainability and reliability, performance will be enhanced via increased processing speed and expanded memory. These improvements will result in faster response time, better dense environment capability and improved parameter measurement. Phase 1 serves to make the currently fielded system viable until affordable improved RF ASE capability can be pursued in Phases 2 and 3. Phase 2 initiates development of an improved digital Radar Warning Receiver (RWR) and is pursuing a 4QFY12 MDD. Phase 3 adds active Electronic Countermeasures (ECM) jamming capability for selected aircraft. FY13 RDTE funding $21.976 million funds the digital RWR AOA, software development, modeling and simulation and the AN/APR-39 processor upgrade eveluation.
