MP-RTIP

Abstract

The Multi Platform-Radar Technology Insertion Program (MP-RTIP) sensor was designed as a family of modular, scalable sensors that provide next generation capabilities to support sustainable network centric operations with integrated Command and Control Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C2ISR) capability. MP-RTIP provides the Global Hawk (GH) Block 40 aircraft advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and Moving Target Indicator (MTI) sensor capabilities. This project includes all MP-RTIP design, development, test, and integration efforts onto the GH Block 40 Platform. Integration activities include platform integration of the MP-RTIP sensor and sustainment support including logistics planning support. Future MP-RTIP studies and development insertion include the implementation of maritime modes, High Range Resolution modes, electronic protection, technical refresh, product improvements and other advanced capabilities. FY14 funding initiates Block 40 post Initial Operational Test & Evaluation (IOT&E) software updates and design/development of remaining requirements. Funding continues to provide MP-RTIP government acquisition support services, with emphasis on acquisition management, documentation delivery, IOT&E software updates and remaining requirements. MP-RTIP Test & Evaluation cost includes test planning, sensor integration and post IOT&E software updates. MP-RTIP Other Government Costs also provide acquisition services for program office infrastructure, contract planning, and contract awards for remaining program requirements. Activities also include studies and analysis supporting current and future program planning and future modes development based on user requirements. This program is in Budget Activity 7, Operation System Development. It supports integration and testing of a developed sensor onto an operational platform.
