NSSS
Abstract
This program provides research and development, and rapid prototyping to support HQ SOCOM TENCAP program and associated similar and supporting capabilities. NSSS improves the combat effectiveness of USSOCOM, its components, and the Theater Special Operations Commands (TSOC) by providing innovative space-based intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance technologies and system enhancements, products, and special communications capabilities to tactical SOF units. NSSS leverages current and developmental National systems to integrate with, augment, and support SOCOM systems. Focus areas include Geospatial Intelligence (GEOINT), Signals Intelligence (SIGINT), Special Communications, and intelligence fusion, reporting, and dissemination. NSSS efforts are characterized by rapid prototype development to transition to SOCOM Programs of Records. These developmental efforts usually support SOCOM’s existing MIPs. NSSS will also improve SIGINT capabilities by pursuing Joint Interface Control Document 4.x and follow-on compliant SIGINT capabilities, extending SOCOM’s cross-domain security infrastructure by adding unclassified sensors into theater net-centric geo-location architecture, improving detection of Low-Probability of Intercept/Low Probability of Detection signals, and automating radar characterizations that enhance tactical SOF capabilities to find, fix, monitor, and target assets using National Technical Means in support of tactical operators.
