Abstract
Networking On The Move (NOTM): NOTM provides a command and control (C2) capability by integrating tactical data systems with on the move satellite communications (SATCOM) for beyond line-of-sight communication that allows commanders to have uninterrupted two-way access to digital data, anywhere on the battlefield. NOTM provides Marine Air-Ground Task Force (MAGTF) commanders and staffs with full Common Operational Picture (COP) access, virtually unlimited situational awareness and a powerful ability to issue digital orders (fires, maneuver, planning) to Ground Combat Element (GCE), Air Combat Element (ACE) and Logistics Combat Element (LCE) units at all echelons while on-the-move or at-the-halt. NOTM also provides Marine units the capability to link with and extend Defense Information System Network (DISN) services; SIPRNet, NIPRNet, and Defense Switched Networks (DSN). Integrated full motion video (receipt and retransmission), tactical voice communications, plus three options for secure wireless local area network (LAN) connectivity between staff members makes this capability a crucial asset to all elements of the MAGTF. Currently the USMC has three variants depending on the type of transportation being used; the NOTM Ground Combat Vehicle (GCV), NOTM Utility Task Vehicle (UTV), and NOTM Airborne (NOTM-A). Electronic Warfare (USMC CREW) System: The Multi-Function Electronic Warfare System (EWS)is a modular, multi-role electronic warfare system that will provide an initial electronic warfare capability, meeting a subset of user requirements from the Urgent Statement of Need. Through incremental development efforts, the program management office will incorporate additional capabilities. The Multi-Function Electronic Warfare system consists of the Modular Vehicle Power Adapter (MVPA) II Control Module, band amplifiers, Modi II band module kit, and the appropriate Vehicle Integration Kit (VIK) for mounted configuration (the A kit). The Multi-Function Electronic Warfare system is compatible with the Modi II as an Electronic Attack/Electronic Warfare Support (EA/ES) system, and is upgradable as modular solutions are developed through component, software, and firmware modifications. Required capability upgrades include networking, geolocation, enhanced electronic attack, user interface improvements, direction finding, and increased frequency coverage. This request seeks funding for the foundational upgrades - networking, geolocation, enhanced electronic attack, and user interface improvements.
