Year 2000 Status of the Combat Control System Mark 2 Block 1 A/B,
Abstract
This is one in a series of reports being issued by the Inspector General, DoD, in accordance with an informal partnership with the Chief Information Officer, DoD, to monitor DoD efforts to address the year 2000 computing challenge. In addition, the National Defense Authorization Act and DoD Appropriations Act for FY 1999 require the Inspector General, DoD, to selectively audit information technology and national security systems certified as year 2000 compliant to evaluate the ability of systems to successfully operate during the actual year 2000, including the ability of the systems to access and transmit information from point of origin to point of termination. The Combat Control System Mark 2 Block 1 A/B provides the primary means for weapon control, contact motion analysis, and sensor data management residing on a Ship Submarine Nuclear 6881 platform. The Combat Control System Mark 2 Block 1 A/B provides improved performance in Strike Warfare, enhanced Battle Group interoperability, and increased effectiveness of the shallow water anti-submarine warfare. It supports operational requirements for improvement of navigational capability of the Conventional Tomahawk Land Attack Missile, the Advanced Tomahawk Weapon Control System, the Joint Maritime Command Information System, and the Mark 48 Advanced Capability Torpedo Propulsion Upgrade.
