OCX Block 3F

Abstract

OCX Block 3F, also known as OCX 3F, will modify OCX Command and Control (C2) for new GPS III Follow-On (GPS IIIF) satellites and Military GPS User Equipment (MGUE) system capabilities, including Regional Military Protection (RMP) high-powered military signal to strengthen U.S. and allied forces' GPS resiliency in contested environments to mitigate future threats, and the ability to rapidly reconfigure GPS IIIF satellites to create time-critical warfighter effects. OCX 3F will maintain backward compatibility with the existing OCX capabilities to support the legacy GPS constellation as well as GPS IIIF. OCX 3F includes critical functions to launch, command, control, and monitor GPS IIIF spacecraft, collect and integrate RMP high-power regional Military Code (M-Code) signals for rapid warfighter effects, and support GPS IIIF auxiliary payloads, including Search and Rescue (SAR) and Nuclear Detonation (NUDET) Detection System (NDS).
