Program OverviewProgram Overview

Program Office Assessed Range Finder Options in Late FY01 Provided FY02 program funds for rapid development of capability

Advantages Offered by Millimeter Wave (MMW) Radar Low Probability of Detection/Low Probability of Intercept (LPD/LPI) 360O search independent of visual search Enhanced situational awareness

Potential for fully automated target tracking

Collision avoidance system with commercially available software

Execution Plan FY02 two Radar Range Finder EDM units

Early FY03 at sea assessment/evaluation FY03 non-recurring engineering and initial capability low rate production

Late FY03 at sea system assessment/evaluation

FY04 Capable of full production

Spiral Build StrategySpiral Build Strategy

FY02 Core Capability (Phase One EDM) All weather 0-10 nm Range, bearing, and Threat Warning controlled and displayed

from Voyage Management System Console Switchable Radar and Full ESM Capability (Worst Case), Simultaneous Operation

Possible FY03 Initial Production Build

FY02 Core capability + fixes identified in demonstration phase Simplified Control and Display externally mounted on Periscope Eye Box

Mode SelectionRange for On-Axis targetsThreat Warning with direction

FY04 Full Production Build FY03 Core capability Direct view heads up display via eye-box optical path Simultaneous Radar and ESM capability SUBIS Interface for core capability control/display and routing of information to CCS Reduced length periscope mast to support Under Ice operations

Phase OneDevelopment Goals

Phase OneDevelopment Goals

Detect Small Boats to Horizon Provide Accurate Ranging Provide 360° Coverage for Situational Awareness Provide Same Performance in Dense Fog Only Minimal Modifications to Submarine Current Radar Training Courses for Operator Training Provide Start to Spiral Development

CINCPACFLT said less than a year ago:

“Introduce a Demonstration System - Upgrade It Over Time”

Demonstration GuidelinesDemonstration Guidelines

Operational Demonstration Requirements Foul Weather and Night Operation Capable Ranging Is Prime Need Situation Awareness with Fast Update is Desirable

Minimal Platform Modifications, None to Periscope Mast Demonstration Aims

Show concept Expose weaknesses

Ultimate Stealth Is Unimportant for This Demo Commanders Want Situation Awareness NOW

Control and Display Can Be Secondary Plot Display or Stand Alone Laptop

HMI Strategy fix datesHMI Strategy fix dates

Phased Implementation: Demonstration to use BPS-15H Voyage Management System (VMS)

Demonstration Focus: Determine if periscope radar capability is feasible

Avoids investment in production HMI prior to user feedback

Production HMI concepts being developed FY03 production will utilize simplified Type 18 control/display

May involve use of second watchstander to observe output and contact alerts FY04 production will utilize Submarine Common Imaging Workstation (SCIC)

No second watchstander Various Heads-Up Displays will be considered

Engage DEVRON12, COMOPTEVFOR, and TYCOMs early

Discuss CONOPs to aid in development of design criteria Maintain involvement during development effort to ensure end product

meets user requirements
