Abstract
Prophet Enhanced is the current system under the Prophet Ground acquisition program. Funds provide for development and integration of Technical Insertion upgrades for Next Generation Signals and state-of-the-art Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) exploitation techniques to increase the capabilities of the Prophet Enhanced and maintain operational relevance. The Prophet Enhanced is the tactical commander's sole organic ground-based SIGINT/Electronic Warfare system for the Multi-Function Teams (MfTs) organic to the Brigade Combat Teams (BCTs) and Expeditionary-Military Intelligence Brigades (E-MIBs). Its primary mission is to provide 24-hour Situation Development and Information Superiority to the supported maneuver brigade to enable the most effective engagement of enemy forces. Prophet Enhanced provides a modular, scalable, open architecture-based system solution optimized for ease of use in a variety of configurations (Stationary-Fixed, Mobile and Manpack). It also incorporates product modification, integration, and test of equipment for rapid integration of Technical Insertions (TI) and product development to ensure operational relevance. Justification: FY 2020 Base funding in the amount of $10.077 million will support continuing non-recurring engineering upgrades to the Prophet Enhanced Signals of Interest (SOI) baseline to support the National Defense Strategy that is Near Peer focused; funding will develop the Intelligence and Electronic Warfare Tactical Proficiency Trainer and Target Signature Arrays (IEWTPT/TSA), integrate the Enhanced Signal Processing (ESP) kit onto the Prophet Enhanced system, and continue to pursue signal of interest upgrades. FY 2020 OCO funding in the amount of $3.200 million will support the development, integration and testing/accreditation of new, Theater Specific, signal capabilities to ensure that Prophet keeps pace with the constantly changing signal environment and to ensure that Prophet maintains its operational relevance against key enemy threats.
