  1. MH-60S/FireScout Demonstration Mindy Johnson PMA299 H-60S Co-IPT Lead October 26, 2011

  2. H-60S Fire Scout Interoperability Demonstration Purpose • Demonstration of integrated aviation package for LCS • Support H-60S Roadmap development • Validate/update Models

  3. 86 ARPDD 9X 75 OSI 10X H-60 Common Systems “Flight Plan” Software Update Cycle Support Systems Air Vehicle Capability Comm\Nav Weapons\ISD (R) Represents MH-60R (S) Represents MH-60S (L) Represents Legacy H-60 This “Conversion Plan” Reflects The Year That Funding, If Available, Is Being Requested To Start Development / Integration Legend: Funded / Partially Funded / Unfunded

  4. LCS/Fire Scout/ H-60 CONOPS Studies • Numerous studies on H-60/Fire Scout Operations • Following used as basis for Demonstration • LCS-SAG Aviation Mix Operations Assessment, SPA. 25 Feb 08 • NPS Thesis: An Operational Manpower Analysis of the MQ-8B Fire Scout VTUAV, Matthew C. Stracker, Sep 07 • NPS Capstone Study H-60/Fire Scout Interoperability, Jan 2010 • AIR 410 H-60 Fire Scout Interoperability Study, Dec 2010

  5. ASUW Demo CONOPSCrosslink MQ-8B Video to MH-60S 2 Phase Demo • Baseline performance using fielded architecture • Comm relay from FS GCS for tactical coordination • Link 16 and voice comms to sail (optional) • Add Video transfer capability between H-60S and Fire Scout Payload Data C - Band (Omni-Omni) C&C and Payload Data Ku – Band (Directional) Voice Comms, Link 16 COMREL MQ-8B MH-60S COMREL GCS SAIL NAS PAX WOLF Sea or land targets

  6. ASUW Demo CONOPSCrosslink MQ-8B Video to MH-60S • Tactical relevance (interoperability) • Sensor • Multi-axis video support for VBSS • Coordinate high priority contact hand-off • Radar data for surface surveillance • Weapon • Simulates target designation for coordinated Hellfire shot • Target verification prior to shot • Applicable to MH-60R or S • BDA • Limitations • MH-60S modifications • Need to configure for Radar • Non integrated • Antenna location: Top of helo to be operationally representative • Non Secure • Number of targets of interest - three

  7. MH-60S Radar DemoFit Check (Cargo Hook Access)

  8. Summary • Demo can be done with known technology. Proven installation architecture. • Avenue to refine technology roadmap. • Opportunity to validate multiple CONOP studies.
