Abstract

E-2D Sensor Systems provide real-time situational awareness to Joint Force and Carrier Strike Group operations via active and passive detection capabilities. Sensor product upgrades provide real-time, on-scene improvements in the execution of early warning, battle management, and command and control missions. E-2D Sensor Systems improvements include development, integration, and testing of aircraft Sensor Systems hardware/software updates and capability expansions. Advanced system development and testing activities will address replacement components to address obsolescence, incorporate technical solutions to meet current and future mandates, and incorporate improved technology in of support mission needs against evolving threats. E-2D AN/ALQ-217 Electronic Support Measures (ESM) Theater Combat Identification (TCID) upgrade integrates digital receiver and processing technology, enabling the E-2D to locate, identify, and track current and future radars in combination with other ESM platforms across L-16 and Tactical Targeting Networking Technology (TTNT). The ESM upgrades bring increased processor capacity, sensor fidelity, and time accuracy. These capabilities will ensure the E-2D can perform its intended mission at locations required to support Naval and Joint force operations. Counter Electronic Attack (CEA) includes implementation of technologies developed by the Office of Naval Research. Studies and analyses will evaluate future capability expansions.
