<strong>Core</strong> <strong>Avionics</strong> <strong>Master</strong> <strong>Plan</strong> 2011 Appendix A-4Current baseline capabilities allow military forces to interface effectively with civil andmilitary ATM entities. Command and Control (C2) platforms have a comprehensiveawareness of identity and location of cooperating military airborne assets, but lessconclusive awareness when it comes to neutral civil platforms. Degree of awarenessalso decreases when expanding from the tactical coverage area to the regional orstrategic theater level. Advancements in Mode 5 will increase fidelity of target signaldifferentiation, address signal security issues and expand awareness for a betterunderstanding of civilian neutrals and tactical ground assets. Clear and accurateidentification, monitoring, and coordination of all traffic and friendly forces will helpfurther the development of the SIAP SA necessary for dominant maneuver, forceprotection and reduction of fratricide.Although fratricide avoidance and battlefield SA are inherently recognized as criticalwarfighting elements, Naval Aviation has not established a firm set of requirements orformal program of record for Blue Force Tracking (BFT) integration. The currentstandard of BFT is Force XXI Battle Command Brigade and Below (FBCB2), which iscomprehensively implemented across ground forces. BFT is designed to enable ashared exchange of SA for a snapshot of operational asset location. The nextgeneration of BFT, known as the Joint Battle Command-Platform (JBC-P), will reducelatency by optimizing the format of data packages, improving BFT data distribution fromthe network operations center and using more satellites in space to handle traffic.Mandates and Milestones:Joint Mode 5 Initial Operational Capability (IOC). (2015) The March 2007 JointRequirements Oversight Council Memorandum (JROCM) 047-07 calls for Mode 5 JointIOC in 2015 and Full Operational Capability (FOC) in 2020.JPALS Ship-based Initial Operational Capability (IOC). (2015) The US <strong>Navy</strong> is thelead for the JPALS program, and is responsible for the development of the shipboardsolution (Increment IA). JPALS will initially be deployed on the newest aircraft carrierand its assigned aircraft, including EA-18G, E-2D, F/A-18E/F, F-35 and MH-60R/S.Required Navigational Performance (RNP) Area Navigation (RNAV) below FlightLevel 290 (FL 290 – 29,000 feet) in Continental United States (CONUS). (2015) TheFAA will require RNAV on selected high-density routes in CONUS starting in 2015. FAAroadmaps also call for Terminal Maneuvering Areas (TMAs) at the busiest 100 U.S.Airports to have RNP capable Standard Instrument Departure (SIDs) routes andStandard Terminal Arrivals (STARs) routes by 2015. The CNS/ATM team is fielding andcoordinating certification of systems that meet RNP RNAV criteria. The Naval FlightInformation Group (NAVFIG) is designing and fielding RNAV terminal procedures for allUSN and USMC Air Stations and expeditionary airfields.JPALS Land-Based IOC. (2018) The Air Force is charged with development of landbasedJPALS ground stations (Increment II). Differential GPS will be used to provide anadditional military PPS datum reference signal via an encrypted UHF data-link, and anadditional civil interoperable SPS signal via a VHF data-link. A fixed station will beinstalled at every DoD airfield that currently has precision approach capability. A manpackvariant will be developed for remote locations (target IOC estimate is 2019).A-4 Cooperative Surveillance 4
