(U) A. Mission Description and Budget Item Justification
Note: Joint STARS funds for FY98 and subsequent years have been transferred to PE 0207581F from PE 0604770F. Program funding for the years through FY97 is reported under PE 0604770F. Total cost shown above, also reported in the Dec 96 Selected Acquisition Report (SAR ), is for FY82-03. RDT&E funds will still be required after FY03 for system upgrades and follow-on testing.
This program is in Budget Activity 7 - Operational System Development, Research Category 6.6. There is an Air Force and Army need to provide, from airborne platforms, near-real time surveillance and targeting information on moving and stationary ground targets (growth to maritime operations), slow moving rotary and fixed wing aircraft, and rotating antennas. This information would enable operational and tactical commanders to make and execute battle decisions. To meet these needs, the Air Force and Army initiated the Joint Surveillance Target Attack Radar System (Joint STARS) program with the Air Force as lead service. Joint STARS will be capable of providing target information for pairing direct attack aircraft and standoff weapons against selected targets. The system will be capable of being cued by other reconnaissance, surveillance, and target acquisition systems; able to respond rapidly to worldwide contingencies; and provide surveillance and attack information in all light and near-all-weather conditions. The operational utility of the system was effectively demonstrated by the outstanding performance of two developmental aircraft in support of combat operations during Desert Storm. In Dec 1995 two developmental aircraft (one E-8A and one E-8C) were deployed in support of Operation Joint Endeavor in Bosnia. At a Defense Acquisition Board (DAB) Milestone III Review on 17 Sep 96, Full Rate Production of 19 aircraft was approved. In Nov 1996 two E-8Cs were deployed in support of Operation Joint Endeavor. This time the first production aircraft and the test aircraft were deployed.
