Global ASNT Inc 2

Abstract

Global ASNT Increment 2 (Inc 2) replaces aging legacy strategic communications equipment at bomber, tanker and reconnaissance Wing Command Posts (WCPs), Nuclear Task Forces, Munitions Support Squadrons (MUNSS), and Mobile Support Teams (MSTs). Global ASNT Inc 2 is a ground-based system that will provide survivable, secure communication paths to disseminate Emergency Action Messages (EAMs) to bomber, tanker, and reconnaissance aircrews. Global ASNT Inc 2 is being fielded in 2 separate capability incremental blocks; both blocks are High-Altitude Electro-Magnetic Pulse (HEMP) and Radiation Hazard (RADHAZ) protected. Global ASNT Inc 2 Block 1 delivers a replacement Aircrew Alerting System (AAS) consisting of Ultra High Frequency (UHF) personal and general alerting equipment replacing EHDC and AACE systems. Global ASNT Inc 2 Block 2 provides High Frequency (HF) capabilities for Beyond Line of Sight (BLOS), communications to bomber, tanker and reconnaissance aircraft. Global ASNT Inc 2 Block 2 requirements were approved by Air Force Global Strike Command in December 2023. The total cost of the Global Aircrew Strategic Network Terminal Increment 2 Middle Tier of Acquisition effort is 132.2 million, including RDT&E and procurement of prototype units. The Global ASNT Inc 2 RP program is fully funded across the Future Years Defense Program. This program element may include necessary revised Security Classification Guide (SCG) implementation activities. This project may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver weapon system capability. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program elements 0605827F, 0605828F, 0605829F, 0605831F, 0605832F, 0605833F, 0605898F, 0606398F. No FY24 or 25 civilian pay is planned.
