Special Programs (Airborne SIGINT Development - Special Platforms)
Abstract
(U) This project supports special Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) studies as well as the development and integration of advanced SIGINT capabilities for special programs such as Liberty Project Aircraft (MC-12W), Network Centric Collaborative Targeting (NCCT) SIGINT, and other projects approved by the SIGINT Capabilities Working Group (SCWG). Development efforts will include, but limited to such things as antenna improvements, sensitivity upgrades, and radio frequency distribution upgrades. Additionally, these funds will develop the capability to allow networking with other SIGINT assets to increase collection accuracy. This project provides the warfighter with a near term combat capability with increased capability improvements accomplished as soon as technology and risk achieve satisfactory levels. Sensors will be integrated and tested on various platforms as funding permits. (U) FY13 will continue to focus development capabilities to collect against signals that are difficult to intercept due to power levels and other characteristics. (U) This program is in Budget Activity 7, Operational System Development because this budget activity includes development efforts to upgrade systems that have been fielded or have received approval for full rate production and anticipate production funding in the current or subsequent fiscal year.
