Nicholas Mirales PMA209C Deputy Program Manager Comm & Airborne Networking 13 March 2013 PMA209 Industry Day 2013 Communications & Airborne Networking Brief NAVAIR Public Release 2013-152 Distribution Statement A "Approved for public release distribution is unlimited” PMA209 Vision: We are the platform customers’ provider of choice for acquisition and integration of avionics-enabled capabilities.

  2. Communication & Airborne NetworkingOrg Chart COMMUNICATION & AIRBORNE NETWORKING PMA-209C (Mirales) AWICS TACCOM/ARC-210 Network Services Blue Force Tracker Int Broadcast Sys

  3. Aircraft Wireless ICS (AWICS) Existing Aircraft Intercom System Safety improvement being fielded to mitigate long cord entanglement hazard Integrated Aircraft Interface Unit (IAIU) WIRED WIRELESS IAIU 1 per acft EME Windtalker Encryption Device (WED) EME with J Box Enhanced Mobile Equipment (EME) • User Group Can Talk to: • Each Other • Pilots • Ground Crews • System is adaptable to a variety of ground platforms User Group 31 users on one IAIU with up to 6 simultaneous talkers Encrypted AWICS program with US Army suspended due to shipboard EMI Issue, program being rebaselined

  4. Interest Items FY15/16 Aircraft Wireless Inter-Com System (AWICS) • Encrypted system capable of operating in the shipboard EMI environment and compatible with existing aircraft ICS, Headset and microphone combinations • Platforms: CH-53E, HH-60H, MH-53E, MH-60S, MV-22B & UH-1Y • Alternative Options study ongoing, RFI released:

  5. TACCOM/ARC-210 AESA radar Over 140 airborne, seaborne and land based platforms use ARC-210 equipment.

  6. Over The Horizon CommunicationsMobile User Objective System Why MUOS? • Combatant Commanders depend on Narrowband SATCOM to complete critical missions requiring Beyond Line Of Sight (BLOS) communications • Existing UHF satellites are currently over subscribed and demand is increasing • Availability of channels for missions is rapidly declining due to health of legacy satellites • Legacy UHF capacity will be at 40% capacity by CY16 • No MUOS capable airborne radios exist today • Mobile User Objective System developed as a replacement for the UHF Follow On (UFO) satellite constellation • IOC in 2012 (one satellite) • FOC in 2016 (four satellites) • Each Satellite will have 2 payloads • Legacy UHF payload with ½ number of usable accesses* • Modern MUOS payload • UFO to MUOS Capacity Improvement MUOS is vital to future UHF SATCOM operations

  7. Interest Items FY15/16 Mobile User Objective System (MUOS) • TACCOM team investigating cost effective options for a MUOS capable airborne terminal for Naval Aviation. Trade space in terminal development cost, Terminal recurring cost, Platform Integration Non recurring and recurring installation costs. • Potential Platforms: E-2C/D, E-6B, VH-60N/VH-3D, CH-53E/K, MH-53E, MH-60S/R, MV-22B, KC-130J, Firescout, BAMS & UH-1Y • RFI responses received from Industry, study ongoing

  8. Blue Force Situational Awareness Evolution to JBC-P JBC-P JBC-P Enablers FBCB2/BFT-AVN A/C Equipment New BFT2 Equipment Software Upgrades for Mission Enhancement LNA L-Band Antenna, cables& wiring Transceiver DC-DC Converter Mini-Router EDM Exploring SW & Card solutions for H-1 space limitations Squadron or Shipboard Command Station TOC Kit • Planned Capabilities • Interface with on-board sensors & subsystems • Auto msg on-board data fill-in • Audible/visual alerts for C2 & air traffic de-confliction (Army TAIS) • Ability to input, pass, and display still photos/imagery • Laser warnings displayed • Gateway with GiG & Link 16 KGV-72 • Capabilities • PLI: 2300m, 1 min updates • FBCB2 • 2 way blue SA • Tailored 2 way C2 messaging • Color moving map • Capabilities • PLI: 500m, 4 sec, 8 sec latency • Type 1 Encryption (SIPR) • Full duplex • >10X improved bandwidth, • more users, more data 2004 2012 2015 2017 *
