Common Development (Airborne SIGINT Development - Common Development)
Abstract
(U) This project supports design studies, engineering analysis, non-recurring engineering, program management administration and other efforts associated with the insertion of new capabilities integrated into ASIP and other sensors and their associated air and ground components that will be used on/by more than one platform. The common development SIGINT project also supports development of new sensors capabilities, normalization of quick reaction capabilities, and identifies suitable replacements for components affected by diminishing manufacturing sources. New capabilities are developed by separate projects. This project also supports the development of projects common to the Airborne SIGINT Enterprise (ASE) Program Element (PE) overall to include, but not limited to: the Air Force SIGINT Architecture (AFSA) maintenance, modeling and simulation efforts, and NATO SIGINT efforts. (U) Sensors development supports Airborne Signals Intelligence Payloads (ASIPs) high altitude payload upgrades. The systems' open architecture and Joint Airborne SIGINT Architecture (JASA)/ Unified Cryptologic System Technical View 1 (UCS StdY-1) compliant design supports streamlined integration of ASIP onto additional ISR platforms. The ASIP sensor is designed to be a common SIGINT system that will allow for for maximum coverage of the electromagnetic spectrum through the use of an integrated high and low band system. (U) Capability improvements will be inserted into the ASIP sensor through individual development efforts that exploit signals of interest identified as service priorities by the Air Force SIGINT Capabilities Working Group (SCWG). This project provides the warfighter near term increased combat capability. Enhancements are implemented as soon as technology and risk achieve satisfactory levels. Compatability improvements will be inserted into the ASIP through individual development efforts that exploit signals of interest identified as Service priorities by the USAF SCWG. Sensors will be integrated and tested on the various platforms as funding permits.
