Tactical Exploitation Of National Capabilities-MIP
Abstract
The Tactical Exploitation of National Capabilities (TENCAP) office serves as the Army's centralized lead to perform National Intelligence cross-agency engineering to evaluate, enhance, prototype, and transition Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) technologies/capabilities developed by Science and Technology (S&T) and other activities across the National Intelligence Community (IC) into Army systems and architectures. TENCAP: (1) ensures continued access to current National and Theater sensors and supporting tactical architectures; and (2) exploits and influences new developments that focus on improving the Analysis and Tasking, Collection, Processing, Exploitation, Dissemination and Feedback (TCPEDF) of intelligence data. This includes efforts to: (1) shorten targeting timelines down to the Platoon level; (2) enhance target identification; (3) provide better target location (accuracy); (4) provide continued coverage of a target; and (5) develop in-theater analytic tools to enable data exploitation in near real-time support to contingency operations. FY 2021 Base funding in the amount of $55.975 million provides: (1) Per direction of the Army ISR Task Force and Future Command, initial risk reduction, analytics and engineering development of the prototype for Tactical Intelligence Targeting Access Node (TITAN) space system; (2) Advanced Miniaturized Data Acquisition System (AMDAS) 'Next' system development; AMDAS Dissemination Vehicle (ADV) improvements; Remote Ground Terminal (RGT) development in order to support TITAN Space risk reduction, analytics and prototyping efforts; (3) engineering and collaborative development on multiple validated National Intelligence Community (IC) advanced software and prototype developments that leverage National IC investments for Army use and ensure continuous Army interoperability with National IC assets and architectures; (4) advanced development of capabilities for Air Vigilance (AV) Army Program of Record; and (5) development of TENCAP Radio Frequency Exploitation (TRFE) effort to support future synchronization of SIGINT, Cyber and Electronic Warfare operations. Multi-Domain Sensing System (MDSS) - FY 2021 base dollars in the amount of $52 million supports MDSS development and prototyping. The Multi Domain Sensor System (MDSS) will provide multiple sensing capabilities by developing and prototyping survivable sensor capabilities on higher altitude platforms that can perform effective stand-off operations. MDSS will exploit and disrupt enemy Radio Frequency (RF) capabilities and systems. They include Electronic Intelligence (ELINT), Communications Intelligence (COMINT), Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), Moving Target Indicator (MTI), Cyber/EW, Air-Launched Effects (ALE) and Aircraft Survivability sensors. These will allow stand-off operations to detect, locate, identify and track critical targets for the ground commander. Developing and demonstrating this sensing capabilities on higher altitude platforms is the first step toward gaining advantage against threats posed by adversarial anti-access and area-denial efforts in the competition phase of operations. The Low Earth Orbit (LEO) FY 2021 base dollars in the amount of $86.80 million dollars supports the prototyping, development, and experimentation of Tactical Space Layer (TSL) sensors (electro optical, synthetic aperture radar, and radio frequency) designed to provide wide-area, responsive deep area sensing required for beyond line of sight (BLOS) targeting and force maneuver, significantly reducing Sensor to Shooter (S2S) timelines. Follow-on persistent prototype tactical sensor capabilities will be integrated with the Army Tactical Intelligence Targeting Access Node (TITAN) ground station which will provide direct tasking and assured access directly supporting live-fire S2S demonstrations and assessments. This is not a new start project. LEO ISR project transitions from Program Element (PE) 1206308A Project FE5 to PE 0603766A Project 907
