Integrated Electronic Warfare Systems

Abstract

The Integrated Electronic Warfare System (IEWS) is a system of systems capability set that integrates electronic attack, protect and support functions to dramatically improve the ability to seize, retain, and exploit an advantage within the electromagnetic spectrum (EMS). It is based on a modular, scalable and open architecture to allow Army Brigade Combat Team (BCT) and Joint Force Commander's to tailor capability responses against a variety of EW threats/scenarios. The IEWS capability set is structured along three program lines of effort: 1) Multi-Function EW (MFEW), 2) Electronic Warfare Planning and Management Tools (EWPMT), and 3) Defensive Electronic Attack (DEA). Defensive Electronic Attack (DEA) will provide force protection to vehicles, dismounted troops and fixed site locations against Radio Controlled Improvised Explosive Device (RCIED) and electronic support measures for situational awareness. Project VS6 provides funding for defensive electronic attack, such as CREW-2 Duke Technology Insertions (DTI) to keep technology relevant against Global threats. FY2016 Base dollars in the amount of $10.202 million provides funding to support the development of CREW-2 Duke Technology Insertions (DTI), hardware/software, including incorporation of advanced techniques development against emerging and global threats, enhance networking capability, addresses military Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT) requirements, and resource program management office operations.
