ELECTRONIC AND ELECTROMAGNETIC SYSTEMS
Abstract
The overarching objective of this activity is to develop, test, and demonstrate communications, electronic attack (EA), electronic surveillance (ES), electronic warfare (EW), and radar functions. This activity also includes development of affordable wideband, high performance Advanced Multifunction Radio Frequency (AMRF) apertures. A portion of this PE is devoted to mid-term technology development in close concert with acquisition programs of record. The products of these efforts are expected to transition at the end of their schedule into the associated acquisition program of record. a) Advanced EW Enabling Technologies - Develop classified advanced electronic warfare technology in support of current and predicted capability requirements. b) Electromagnetic Maneuver Warfare Command & Control (EMC2) (FY16-FY20) - Enable a battle group to work cooperatively in the EM Spectrum (EMS) to optimize Electronic Warfare (EW), Information Operations (IO), Communications (Comms) and Radar performance. EMC2 will build upon the Resource Allocation Manager (RAM) that was previously developed for single multifunction systems under the InTop program to optimize spectrum and functional use across a platform and an entire battle group. The increase from FY 2016 to FY 2017 reflects an increase in the level of effort for the new Electromagnetic Maneuver Warfare Command & Control (EMC2) Innovative Naval Prototype (INP) Program. The decrease from FY 2017 to FY 2018 reflects the realignment of the EMC2 Innovative Naval Prototype (INP) and Leap Ahead Technology (LA-Tech) designated program to PE 0603801N Innovative Naval Prototypes (INP) Advanced Technology Development where all of the INP/LA-Tech investments are being consolidated. The following are non-inclusive examples of accomplishments and plans for projects funded in this activity.
