INTEGRATED ELECTRONIC WARFARE SYSTEMS

Abstract

The Integrated Electronic Warfare (IEW) Family of Systems (FoS) will provide Electronic Warfare capabilities to the Army and Joint Force Commander with a modular, scalable and interoperable architecture to allow tailored responses to a variety of EW threats/scenarios. The program is structured along three lines of effort: Multi-Function EW (MFEW), EW Planning & Management Tools (EWPMT), and Defensive Electronic Attack (DEA). The MFEW FoS will provide Offensive Electronic Attack (OEA) capability organic to the Brigade Combat Team (BCT) through a Family of Systems (FoS) including ground vehicle, man-pack, fixed site, and airborne variants. The EWPMT will provide planning capabilities to coordinate, manage, and deconflict unit EW activities; employ EW assets to conduct offensive EW targeting, and synchronize EW spectrum operations within an Effects/Fires Cell as an element of Mission Command. The DEA FoS includes mounted, dismounted and fixed site variants to provide force protection to personnel, equipment, and facilities. FY2012 funds will support the establishment of a Program Office(s), preparation of Milestone Documentation and pre-acquisition activities for EWPMT.
