Compass Bright (Airborne SIGINT Development - Compass Bright)
Abstract
(U) The COMPASS BRIGHT program develops, demonstrates, and rapidly transitions advanced Air Force-specific SIGINT and radio frequency (RF) measurement and signature intelligence (MASINT) capabilities against emerging and future target signals. It is the only USAF program that pursues SIGINT and RF MASINT technology transition. (U) The COMPASS BRIGHT program objective is to develop technologies for application in SIGINT and RF MASINT systems/subsystems. Acquisition and production of these developed technologies will occur within the appropriate platform programs. (U) COMPASS BRIGHT projects are selected through a data call process whereby the USAF evaluates proposals from the labs and industry to select those projects that are most promising. This process is completed the year prior to award. (U) This program is categorized as Budget Activity 7 because it provides for development of technologies and capabilities in support of operational system development.
