B. (U) BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF MISSION REQUIREMENT AND SYSTEM CAPABILITIES:

(U) C4I, in the context of this project, is defined as all those command, control, and intelligence functions serviced by computers and communications systems beyond weapon control functions. This project assumes theater missile defense is an extension of the traditional air defense. As such, TMD will integrate into the existing theater air defense command and control structure. This project contains those upgrades required to meet the dynamics of ballistic missile defense in a theater air defense structure. Integration of sensors and communications systems will provide enhanced support, not only to active defense, but to attack operations and passive defense as well.

(U) This effort includes analyzing known and planned unified theater air defense CONOPS and C4I architectures; identifying information types and information flows based on stratagems and use; determining the optimum architecture via trade studies; prototyping of a tactical operation center to integrate Army TMD assets; initiating upgrades to Air Force command and control nodes; making improvements for the dissemination of attack warning, target acquisition, cueing and command information to battlefield systems; and developing a standard message set that will support the TBM mission.

(U) The Bottom-Up Review (BUR) had no effect on this program.

(U) This project is assigned to the Budget Activity and Program Element codes as identified in this descriptive summary in accordance with existing Department of Defense policy. Further justification of the Budget Activity code assigned to each Program Element is contained within the Brief Description of Element section of each Program Element Summary.
