1.1 BACKGROUND

NSWCPD Code 424 has a requirement for the next generation FADC (XT FADC) aboard DDG-51 class ships. The acquisition will fill a need for an improved Ship Service Gas Turbine Generator Full Authority Digital Control (SSGTG FADC). The SSGTG FADC contains the gas turbine controller and accessory equipment required to control the SSGTG and output electrical power to the ship’s electric plant. The existing DDG-51 Class SSGTG FADC contains obsolete components critical to SSGTG operation and lacks cybersecurity hardening capabilities due to hardware and software limitations. The next generation SSGTG FADC (XT FADC) will directly replace the existing unit utilizing the current input/output structure and control algorithms, while upgrading hardware and software to improve availability, reliability, maintainability, and supportability of the SSGTG.
