Core Avionics Master Plan 2012 Appendix A-21. Funded Enhancements and Potential Pursuits.Future JBC-P software upgrades are scheduled to begin fielding in the FY15timeframe. They will support interface with onboard sensors and subsystems such asradar warning receivers and laser threat detectors. The system is also planned toprovide enhanced capabilities such as white boarding, Voice over Internet Protocol(VoIP), and exchange of still photo imagery. The Army has included high speedcommunications links into the design which are intended to facilitate interoperability withGIG Enterprise Services via Net-Centric Service Gateways, as well as to provideconnectivity with existing systems such as LINK16.Aircraft Encryption and Higher Data Rate BFSA (BFT2). (2014) The Army-MarineCorps Board, under the guidance of the JROC, developed a strategy to convergeseveral separate C2/SA systems to a common baseline. In May of 2008, the JROCapproved the Joint Battle Command – Platform (JBC-P) Capabilities DescriptionDocument (CDD). The transition to JBC-P is enabled by upgrading to the Blue ForceTracker 2 (BFT2) hardware and adding KGV-72 Type 1 encryption. The resultingsystem begins fielding for ground forces late in FY11 and on aircraft by FY13. It willprovide NSA certified Type 1 encrypted, full duplex, near real time SA and C2messaging between the front line warfighter and higher echelon command posts.Currently, FBCB2 latency is on the order of 6-8 minutes, which is not sufficient fortracking fast moving friendly aircraft. BFT2 is projected to automatically report PLI every500 meters of movement with an reduction in data latency to a threshold target of 8seconds, with an objective target of 4 seconds.FBCB2 to BFT2 enhancements: 2.6 kbps to 122 kbps download. 0.27 kbps to 3 kbps upload 600 msg/min to 7500 forward, 5000 return Half duplex to Full duplex Upgrade to IP based exchange Addition of email Addition of Type 3 data securityExpanded BFSA Applications (Joint Battle Command – Platform, JBC-P).(2016) The Army typically fields incremental systems enhancements in ‘Capability Sets’(CS). Future Army managed JBC-P software CS15-16 upgrades are scheduled to beginfielding in the FY15 timeframe. They will support interface with onboard sensors andsubsystems such as radar warning receivers and laser threat detectors. The system isalso planned to provide enhanced capabilities such as white boarding, Voice overInternet Protocol (VoIP), and exchange of still photo imagery. Navy and Marine Corpshave not established a formal BFSA program of record. Procurement of equipment hasbeen incrementally resourced via annual Overseas Contingency Operations funds. InPOM-14, an issue was submitted to establish a centralized program of record to alignwith Army capability evolution, organize conversion to next generation JBC-P, manageintegrations of new associated equipment, and establish an effective sustainmentinfrastructure. The driving imperative behind the budget issue is that the FBCB2 satellitearchitecture will be dismantled by 2017, resulting in current users losing critical existingSA/COP and operational interoperability.A-2 Information Exchange 16
Core Avionics Master Plan 2012 Appendix A-2Global Information Grid BFSA Connectivity and Gateway Interfaces. (2018) TheArmy has included high speed communications links into the JBC-P design which areintended to facilitate interoperability with GIG Enterprise Services via Net-CentricService Gateways, as well as to provide connectivity with existing systems such asLink 16. These capabilities are expected to be enabled with CS17-18.C. Wideband SATCOM.1. Current capabilities. Advanced Wideband Satellite Services (AdvancedExtremely High Frequency - AEHF, Wideband Global SATCOM - WGS).The AEHF satellite provides ten times more capacity and moves data six times moreefficiently than the five Military Strategic and Tactical Relay (MILSTAR) IIcommunications satellites currently in use. The higher data rates can send video,battlefield maps, targeting data and other communications in real time. The first AEHFsatellite was launched in 2010. AEHF will supply global, secure, jam-resistant andsurvivable strategic communications for high priority assets. E-6B currently employs aMILSTAR II terminal and is a candidate for a new terminal to support the Extended DataRate (XDR) capability of AEHF satellites. The Family of Advanced BLOS Terminals(FAB-T) was to provide this capability for airborne platforms, but the program wasdiscontinued. The WGS system is being launched to support DoD’s increasing demandfor BLOS transmission of ISR data, specifically Full Motion Video (FMV). ExistingElectro-Optical/InfraRed (EO/IR) sensor compressed FMV exchange requiresapproximately 5 Mbps data rate. WGS is a replacement for the Defense SatelliteCommunications System (DSCS) and provides ten times the capacity of DSCS. Eachsatellite provides up to 2-3 Gbps of capacity. Five satellites will provide a total capacityof approximately 11 Gbps by 2012. Each satellite has multiple beams, each supportinga 125 Mhz channel which can be sub-divided down to 2.6Mhz increments. WGSterminal antenna size depends on the platform’s required data rate. One terminal indevelopment utilizes a 45 inch antenna to achieve 50 Mbps. VIP aircraft are also usingevolving Commercial Broadband Satellite Program (CBSP) terminals.2. Advance Research and Technology Development.Reduced Size Antennas. (2013-2015) Current antennas available to implementWideband SATCOM on many air platforms are too large, too costly and difficult toinstall. In order to reduce the integration cost and complexity, industry is researchingdevelopment of smaller antennas and other conformal solutions. Smaller antennaswould also allow integration onto non-central areas of air platforms where there aresignificant space restrictions. These technologies are still limited to innovative researchand demonstration projects.3. Funded Enhancements and Potential Pursuits.ArcLight Commercial Ku Satellite Terminal. (2012) Commercial Ku band satellitetechnology will provide affordable, 2-way, always-on, broadband IP access to mobileground, airborne, and maritime platforms. Commanders, sensors, and weaponssystems will be able to interact seamlessly to establish a real-time view of the battlefieldand allocate firepower as effectively as possible. Ku band terminals are currently underdevelopment and planned for installation on P-3 Special Projects Aircraft (SPA) andLittoral Surveillance Radar System (LSRS) aircraft.A-2 Information Exchange 17
