Mission Description and Budget Item Justification: This program element encompasses engineering and manufacturing development for tactical electronic warfare (EW), signals warfare (SW), aircraft survivability equipment (ASE), battlefield deception, rapid software reprogramming and protection of personnel and equipment from hostile artillery. EW encompasses the development of tactical EW equipment and systems mounted in both ground and air vehicles. The systems under this program provide the Army with the capability to degrade or deny hostile forces the effective use of their communications, countermortar/counterbattery radars, surveillance radars, infrared/optical battlefield surveillance systems and electronically fused munitions. Existing Army EW systems must be replaced or upgraded to maintain their capability in the face of threat technical advancements. This program element satisfies requirements for brigade, division, corps and higher commanders to conduct electronic warfare to meet tactical and Special Electronic Mission Aircraft (SEMA) requirements, attach/scout, and assault/cargo mission requirements. Signals Warfare Development provides for development of multifunction ground based and airborne intelligence and electronic warfare systems. The High Value Asset Defense System will provide effective protection of personnel and equipment from electronically fused munitions. TROJAN developments will complete Proof-of-Principle R&D for specific TROJAN applications in advanced threat signals processing and prototype software upgrades; high frequency (HF) algorithms for compact antenna array technology (CAAT) configured into small aperture antenna arrays; search and acquisition capabilities for unattended signal collectors; and new digital intelligence collection, processing and dissemination technology. The ARAT Project will develop, test and equip an Army wide infrastructure capable of rapidly reprogramming electronic combat software embedded in offensive and defensive weapon systems. The projects in this PE are in the engineering and manufacturing development phase of the acquisition cycle and therefore are correctly placed in Budget Activity 5.

A. Mission Description and Justification: Signals Warfare Development provides for a family of integrated ground-based and heliborne intelligence and electronic warfare common sensor systems. The Ground Base Common Sensor (GBCS) is an intercept and emitter location system. It provides division commanders with the capability to search, intercept, listen to, precisely locate for hard-kill or order-of-battle resolution, or render ineffective through electronic attack, threat command and control and fire control communications nets. It also identifies and precisely locates threat countermortar and counterbattery ground surveillance radar emissions, and identifies enemy conventional and Low Probability of Intercept (LPI) communications and non-communications emitters and jam enemy conventional and LPI communications emitters. GBCS is an evolutionary system which is intended to continually overmatch threat capabilities through a continuous modernization philosophy. Modular components, commercial standards, and open architecture features facilitate change in a cost effective manner of changing parts via P3I vice whole system replacement. This open architecture feature satisfies the Army requirement to conduct tactical ground Communications Intelligence, Electronic Intelligence, Electronic Support, and Electronic Attack against threat communications and non-communications signals; enhances the Commander's ability to outmaneuver and destroy the enemy by locating or jamming threat command and control, fire control, and air defense centers. The GBCS will be used in two platform configurations. The GBCS-Light (GBCS-L) will be deployed on a highly mobile multipurpose wheeled vehicle (HMMWV) in support of Light Divisions. The GBCS-Heavy (GBCS-H) will be deployed on a tracked vehicle in support of Armored and Mechanized Infantry Divisions. The third platform of the Intelligence and Electronic Warfare Common Sensor System is the Advanced QUICKFIX (AQF) which provides for a material change to the existing heliborne QUICKFIX communications intercept, collection, processing, direction finding, and jamming system and will be deployed to Army Divisions and Armored Cavalry Regiments (ACR). Configured in a Blackhawk Helicopter (EH-60A), it provides the moving platform necessary to provide for location accuracies sufficient for "steel on target" requirements, as well as for extension of radio Line of Sight (LOS) against target emitters. This project provides for engineering and manufacturing development (EMD) and testing of Intelligence and Electronic Warfare Common Sensor (IEWCS) Subsystems and Systems leading to Milestone III and product improvement of systems after initial production. The Subsystems are:

a. The Tactical and Communication Jammer (TACJAM-A) will enhance the Division Commander's ability to outmaneuver and kill the enemy by isolating and suppressing enemy fire control and command and control (C2) nets at critical points in the battle; provide electromagnetic overwatch of the threat C2 spectrum inclusive of both conventional and modern modulations (LPI); freeze the enemy in place by jamming C2; and eliminate enemy counterfire by locating High Value Targets (HVTs) for targeting. TACJAM-A consists of state-of-the-art modular and scaleable Electronic Support Measures (ESM) and Electronic Countermeasures (ECM) subsystems configured for use on a variety of air and ground prime movers (tracked, wheeled and heliborne).

b. The Communication High Accuracy Location System (CHALS-X) provides the targeting capability required to support the Division Commander's requirement to locate and kill the enemy by providing location of high value targets. Airborne systems mixed with ground based systems will be capable of precisely locating enemy weapon systems and units (regardless of whether the enemy uses conventional or modern radios) producing target locations sufficiently accurate for first round fire for effect by organic artillery.

c. The Common Modules ELINT Subsystem (CMES) provides search, intercept, direction finding (DF), precision location and analysis of the primary non-communication (radar) battlefield threat emitters. While operating in a fully automatic mode, it will enhance the Division Commander's ability to outmaneuver and kill the enemy by specifically identifying HVTs such as enemy countermortar, and counterbattery ground surveillance radar at critical points in the battle and will provide precise emitter locations with targeting accuracy.

The United States Marine Corps is utilizing the same subsystems as the GBCS and configuring them in a Light Armored Vehicle as a part of the Mobile Electronic Warfare Support System (MEWSS) improvement program.

This unclassified project is joint with the National Security Agency's Defense Cryptologic Program (DCP), Program Element 030885G, which provides a portion of the funds required for the development of the precision location subsystem and system integration of GBCS-L and GBCS-H.

Acquisition Strategy: GBCS provides the commanders of Divisions, Brigades and ACR with an organic capability to listen to, precisely locate for hard-kill or order-of-battle resolution, or render ineffective through electronic attack, threat command and control and fire control communications nets, and identify and precisely locate threat countermortar and counterbattery ground surveillance radar emissions, and other communications nets. The system is specifically designed to ensure transportability, prime mover maintainability, and over terrain mobility equal to that of the supported divisions, regiments, and brigades while exploiting or eliminating - at the commander's discretion - the latest, most modern type of hostile modulations and transmissions techniques at the key time and place on the battlefield. GBCS is an evolutionary system which is intended to continually overmatch threat capabilities through a continuous modernization philosophy. Modular components, commercial standards, and open architecture features facilitate change in a cost effective manner by enhancing software or changing parts via P3I vice whole system replacement. This open architecture feature satisfies the Army requirement to conduct tactical ground communications intelligence, electronic intelligence, electronic support, and electronic attack against threat communications and non-communications signals; enhances the commander's ability to outmaneuver and destroy the enemy by locating or jamming threat command and control, fire control, and air defenses centers.

A. Mission Description and Budget Item Justification: This project is a Tactical Intelligence and Related Activities (TIARA) program. A key factor in modern warfare is the ability to collect, process and use information about an adversary while preventing him from obtaining similar information. TROJAN is a combined operational and readiness mission system which uses advanced networking technology to provide seamless rapid radio relay, secure communications to include voice, data, facsimile, and electronic reconnaissance support to U.S. forces throughout the world. TROJAN operations may be easily tailored to fit military intelligence unit training schedules and surged during specific events to involve every aspect of the tactical intelligence collection, processing, analysis and reporting systems. This project engineers, tests and evaluates new digital intelligence collection, processing and dissemination technology using the fielded TROJAN systems, prior to the acquisition of those technologies. The process that will enable the United States to win the battlefield information war is referred to as digitization. This capability will allow us to process and disseminate real-time intelligence data from various sources; it forms the intelligence needed to issue orders inside the threat decision cycle. To that end, it is imperative the TROJAN system keep pace with digitization initiatives in order to respond aggressively to the emerging intelligence communication threats.

Acquisition Strategy: Competitive contract award utilizing firm fixed price and best value selection procedures for engineering and manufacturing development.

A. Mission Description and Budget Item Justification SHORTSTOP development is the continuation of the SHORTSTOP program which was initiated as a Quick Reaction Program (QRP) to a CENTCOM Statement of Need (SON) developed in the early part of Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm. Thirty six Limited Procurement Urgent units (AN/VLQ-9) were procured and fourteen have been upgraded to a multi-band configuration (AN/VLQ-10). Sixteen AN/VLQ-9s and ten AN/VLQ-10s are currently deployed in Bosnia in support of Operation Joint Endeavor. The SHORTSTOP Operational Requirements Document, approved Apr 94, calls for a system with a lightweight autonomous configuration which shall be quickly and easily deployed via vehicles or manpack. In order to maximize tactical utility, it further requires that the set be capable of operation from either a battery or suitable external power source. The current EMD program for the SHORTSTOP Electronic Protection System will provide a lightweight, fully integrated Radio Frequency Countermeasure system to provide protection for personnel and other high value assets against proximity fuzed munitions. There will be three configurations of the SHORTSTOP Electronic Protection System: a manpack system, a stand alone system, and a vehicle mounted system. SHORTSTOP will be used by Infantry, Engineering, Armored, Field Artillery, and Intelligence units to enhance survivability.

Acquisition Strategy: A contract was awarded in July 1994 on a competitive basis for the development of a lightweight autonomous configuration of the SHORTSTOP Electronic Protection System.

A. Mission Description and Justification: Aircraft Survivability Equipment Development provides for the development and system integration of Aircraft Survivability Equipment (ASE) to achieve survivability, reduce vulnerability, and enhance combat effectiveness required to fulfill special electronic mission aircraft (SEMA), attack/scout, and assault/cargo mission requirements. Equipment developed will increase combat effectiveness and potential for mission accomplishment by reducing or eliminating the ability of threat air defense systems to detect, hit, damage or destroy Army aircraft. Developments respond to the approved requirements documents, test and type classification for production and fielding of ASE systems to address infrared, radar, laser and optical/electro-optical directed air defense threats. Efforts in development include new or upgraded systems to counter monopulse, millimeter wave, frequency agile, pulse doppler and continuous wave radars, passive infrared missile seekers and laser directed weapon systems. Continual adjustments are made to this program to meet the changing and evolutionary nature of technology and threat. This program has joint service applications that are coordinated through the Joint Technical Coordinating Group for Aircraft Survivability (JTCG/AS), as well as NATO applications coordinated through DoD. This project also provides the technical base for electronic warfare equipment for Comanche and Special Operations Aircraft. The projects in this program element support research efforts that complete Demonstration/Validation (Dem/Val) prototype efforts and transition into the Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) phase of the acquisition strategy and are, therefore, correctly placed in Budget Activity 5.

Acquisition Strategy: Project is comprised of multiple programs which have been competitively awarded.
