Avionics H/W and S/W Development
Abstract
Development efforts support aircraft integration, problem investigation, lab management and upgrades, and repairs in support of the test program. Individual Avionics and Mission Systems hardware and software upgrades are integrated, tested and fielded as part of an overall MH-60 System Configuration (e.g. SC24, SC26, etc.). System Configuration fleet releases are planned for every two years to meet fleet requirements, add new capabilities, pace the threat, address obsolescence, and incorporate technology insertion. Avionics hardware and software development and integration efforts include: Pre-planned Product Improvements, new System Configurations, Radar enhancements, development of Network Enabled Weapons capability which includes the integration of Tactical Data Network modernization efforts, to include J11 and J12.6 series messages into the MH-60R/S Link-16 architecture and enhancements of the network architecture to include MIDS JTRS CMN-4 and TTNT, development of critical ASE upgrades, cyber evaluations/validations, Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages (DMSMS) solutions (to include Air Vehicle Systems, ALFS, Automatic Flight Control Computer (AFCC), Mission Systems and Avionics with emphasis on displays, Radar upgrades in support of Minotaur Family of Systems (MFoS)/Enhanced Data Correlation integration.
