B-52 CONECT

Abstract

Diminishing Manufacturing Source (DMS) redesign development and test effort. Continued engineering design of CONECT capability into the B-52 training systems. Began incorporating changes required due to updates in Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) and crypto modernization requirements. Incorporated/integrated CONECT with recurring updates of the B-52 software baseline. As the CONECT upgrade brings additional capability to the B-52, emerging communication and security requirements (upgrades to the IBR, JRE messages, crypto modernization, etc.) and aircraft upgrades (1760 Internal Weapons Bay Upgrade, Mode S/Mode 5 IFF, etc.) may require study for potential impacts to CONECT. CONECT will update the existing trainers and/or use computer-based training to add CONECT functionality to meet user-training requirements, and update/maintain the System Integration Lab (SIL) and for the WST. A CONECT ground station, is required in order to assist PDM during after-install checkout, and provide Barksdale/Minot units with maintenance checkout and operational training capability.
