Shaping the Future “ it shall be the goal of the Armed Forces to achieve the fielding of unmanned, remotely controlled technology such that-…” Public Law 106-398, sec 220 “Some of the investment options we have discussed include…Unmanned systems, including robotic ground, air, sea and space sensors and vehicles;” Sec. Defense Donald Rumsfeld, 21 June 2001 Shaping the Future of Naval Warfare with Unmanned Systems • Unmanned Systems – Historical Perspective • Used in Naval warfare early-on ... 1st as mines • Use has grown steadily • Today – many specialized systems/concept • Tomorrow – an opportunity to Augment • Fleet capability • Current Fleet Trends • Reduced Manning • Increased Automation • Less Casualties • More Complex Threats • Reduced Force Structure • Independent (Split) Ops
Unmanned Systems Technology AFFORDABILITY • “Smart” Standardization • “Smart” Modularity LOGISTICS AUTOMATION • Standard Containers • Flexible “Retail” Delivery • “Low Impact” Lift • Training • Common Control • Automated Launch & Recovery • Automated Sustainment Technology “Triad” for Unmanned Systems ….. Requires a Systems Engineering Approach What it will Take to Augment the Fleet with Unmanned Systems
Force Structure - MCM 2020 • Self-Protection • Avoidance/Jamming • Signature Control All Combatants (DD/CG/CV/L/SSN) • Organic MIW Capable Ships • Self-Protection, plus • Off-board Autonomous Recon • “Punch-Through” Neutralization DDs/L-Ships/SSNs • Future MIW Ships • Self-Protection, plus • Wide Area Off-Board Autonomous Recon • Wide Area Neutralization • VSW/SZ Recon & Neutralization ?
Future MCM Ship(s) MCM-”Next” MCS-”Next” Future MCM Force Needs • Counter the Spectrum of Threats in Variety of Environments • Perform Wide Range of MCM Operations • Deploy with Naval Battle Groups • Eliminate the Need for Manned Operations in a Minefield • Provide Robust MCM C4ISR Capability Analysis of Alternatives Required to Determine Cost Effective Solutions 1 or 2 Ship Classes?
MIW C4ISR Future COLLABORATIVE PLANNING & EXECUTION RIGHT DECISION REDUCE MCM TIME Common Undersea Picture • National ISR • Environmental Database • Threat Database • Ship Vulnerability Network Centric (CUP) Intuitive Comprehensive Battlespace Awareness Timely Accurate Relevant Information
The Grand Challenge Enable Assured Access and Dominant Maneuver, with Decisive Speed and Overwhelming Operational Tempo in the Presence of Enemy Forces, Mines & Obstacles Enablers • Unmanned Systems • MIW Force Structure • C4ISR • Navy-Industry Commitment
