FORCENET (FNT)
Abstract
This R-2 Activity contains all Future Naval Capabilities (FNC) Program Enabling Capability (ECs) investments in this PE that are aligned to the Forcenet (FNT) FNC Pillar. The FNT pillar develops deliverable technologies that provide new capabilities in Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C4ISR), networking, navigation, sensors, decision support, cyber-space, intelligence, and space technologies that will provide the architectural framework for naval warfare in the information age. The FY 2016 to FY 2017 increase was due primarily to the ramp up of FNT-FY14-02, FNT-FY15-01, FNT-FY15-02 and FNT-FY16-02, and the initiation of FNT-FY17-01, FNT-FY17-02 and FNT-FY17-04. The FY 2017 to FY 2018 increase was due primarily to the planned ramp up of 1) FNT-FY13-03 Silk Thread, which is expanding advanced technology development efforts, 2) FNT-FY15-01 Advanced Airborne Early Warning Electronic Protection (AAEWEP), which is expanding the effort in order to implement techniques to improve the Advanced Hawkeye E2-D electronic protection capability, 3) FNT-FY17-02 Submarine Simultaneous Transmit and Receive (SubSTAR), which will expand to conduct testing of the prototype broadband simultaneous transmit and receive subsystems, and 4) FNT-FY17-04 Resilient Hull/Infrastructure Mechanical & Electrical Security (RHIMES), which will expand to demonstrate resilient software to protect controllers and proactive information shaping capabilities in the laboratory; and the initiation of 1) FNT-FY18-04 A2AD Communication Operations with Nanosats (ACORN), which will Integrate and test a nanosat payload and UHF networking with a digital mobile radio, and 2) FNT-FY18-05 Advanced Coordination Techniques for Distributed EW, which will implement precision geo-location and coordinated engagement techniques, begin a domain analysis for familiarization with relevant Navy systems, and implement techniques for providing real-time propagation channel assessments.
