NAVWAR SA

Abstract

Adversaries, in recognition of Joint and Coalition force Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) dependencies, are aggressively developing and fielding counter-PNT technologies that significantly reduce the Army's ability to access the electromagnetic spectrum (EMS) to conduct military operations. The Army is actively pursuing Navigation Warfare Situational Awareness (NAVWAR-SA) capabilities to provide soldiers with PNT overmatch by countering the effects of jamming and denying adversary access to PNT services. NAVWAR-SA is a system of systems approach to detecting, geolocating, and determining the impact area of Global Positioning System (GPS) in a contested environment and the effects on PNT on the battlefield. NAVWAR-SA provides commanders and soldiers with indications and warnings of PNT jamming to: provide immediate notification to individual PNT users that their navigation and timing may be compromised by jamming or spoofing; detect, identify, and locate sources of PNT interference; allow command and control (C2) systems to display areas affected by interference with actionable information necessary to implement measures to mitigate or eliminate the threat. NAVWAR-SA supports Multi-Domain Operations (MDO) as an enabler to precision fires, movement and maneuver, force tracking, and a host of data networks that tie personnel and weapon systems together into a joint or coalition force. Fiscal Year (FY) 2025 funds in the amount of $2.004 million continues the transition and integration of the Navigation Warfare Situational Awareness (NAVWAR-SA) software.
