DISMOUNTED

Abstract

Dismounted Assured PNT (APNT) System (DAPS) implements congressional and OSD guidance to develop and field Military Code (M-Code) Ground user Equipment (MGUE) to dismounted Soldiers, Commanders, and systems (e.g. Nett Warrior (NW), other Soldier architecture compliant systems, etc.), in order to provide the timing and position data necessary to effectively engage targets, share data across the network, and conduct mission command functions. DAPS is planned to deliver APNT in an optimized form factor that supports dismounted mission profiles in contested and denied environments and use cases where mounted APNT solutions are not available. DAPS includes the development of hardware and software to integrate M-Code, Global Positioning System (GPS), Alternative Navigation (ALTNAV) signals, non-radio frequency (RF) sensors, and other PNT sources to generate and distribute a fused APNT solution to applicable End User Devices (EUD). Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 Base funds in the amount of $12.294 Million will support continued engineering development, production and manufacturing readiness, and Limited User Test (LUT) in preparation for Milestone C scheduled for 2nd Quarter (Q) FY 2023.
