B-52 Crypto Modernization
Abstract
Upgrades aircraft with Mobile User Objective System (MUOS) capable ARC-210 radio systems to prevent loss of beyond line of sight (BLOS) voice and data communications capability. The program will ensure the B-52 meets National Security Agency (NSA) mandates and DoD mandates and directives. In order to maintain currency with the latest aircraft configuration, the B-52 Systems Improvements projects will update existing trainers or use Computer-Based Training (CBT) to add any new systems improvement functionality to meet user training requirements and update/maintain the Systems Integration Lab (SIL) for the Weapon System Trainers (WSTs). Funds may be used to resolve emerging safety of flight and short-notice diminishing manufacturing and material shortage (DMSMS) source issues, improve related communications systems, modify the SIL to update to the current configuration, accommodate technology insertion and fulfill Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) or other mandates necessary to ensure continued aircrew safety and mission effectiveness. DMS efforts to include removal of end-of-life software/hardware within simulators systems and move to a modular, common open system architecture that is sustainable and cyber-resilient. Implement requirements and standards defined under the Simulator Common Architecture Requirements and Standards (SCARS) initiative.
