1 Scope 66

1.1 Scope 67

This specification covers the Electronic Warfare Planning and Management Tool (EWPMT) for the 68

Integrated Electronic Warfare System (IEWS). IEWS will provide commanders from Corps to Company 69 focusing on the Brigade Combat Team (BCT) with an organic EW capability that dramatically improves a 70 land force’s ability to seize, retain, and exploit an advantage within the electromagnetic spectrum (EMS) 71 in order to execute decisive operations successfully. EWPMT will provide the Electronic Warfare Officer 72

(EWO) with a mission command capability to plan, coordinate, manage, and deconflict unit EW activities 73 in support of maneuver operations from the Corps down to the Company echelon. 74

The EWPMT is a software system that will be instantiated as a set of services to be run within the 75

Command Post Computing Environment (CPCE) and one or more presentation-layer widgets to be run 76 on a thin client laptop. This specification covers EWPMT Increment 1 focusing on Capability Drops (CD) 77

1 and 2. The EWPMT Increment 1 is divided into six CDs as follows: 78

(1) Capability Drop 1. EWPMT CD 1 will provide software that integrates data for friendly, 79 enemy, and non-aligned emitters and provide for the planning and management of EW capabilities 80 across the range of military operations. EW personnel will use EWPMT to provide input to the 81 operations process via the detailed information on EW effects that it provides within the operational 82 environment. This CD will reduce the risk of frequency fratricide by identifying potential frequency 83 conflicts between friendly systems. EWPMT CD 1 will focus on the development effort from Systems 84

Requirements Review through the Critical Design Review. CD 1 will result in a Limited Deployment 85 leading to a Milestone C decision and approval of an Initial Operational Capability (IOC). 86

(2) Capability Drops 2-6. Future capability drops will: 1) graphically display friendly emitter 88 interference, disruption, and degradation and allow EW personnel to determine the proper program EW 89 technique for EW systems 2) allow EW personnel to transfer control of the EW mission resources to any 90 echelon in order to provide backup support 3) provide the capability to conduct post mission analysis 91 that will aid in determining mission accomplishment 4) provide the capability to rapidly reconfigure 92 organic EW assets 5) provide reprogramming of organic EW assets and the ability to provide immediate 93 targeting information to fires and maneuver elements. 94

(3) All future capabilities will be based on evolving requirements, established through the GOSC, 96 and documented in future documentation. 97

Specific functions within CDs 3-6 are subject to change, but the overall system is expected to 99 implement all of the above functions by the end of drop 6. Requirements specific to drops 1 and 2 are 100 detailed in the following sections. Requirements that do not indicate a specific drop are anticipated to 101 be implemented within CDs 3-6. 102

1.2 System Overview 103

EWPMT is a part of a Family of Systems called IEWS. IEWS is a family of distributed, modular and 104 configurable systems focusing on the BCT that functionally exploits the electromagnetic spectrum 105 through a variety of offensive, defensive, and enabling capabilities to achieve the commander’s intent. 106

The IEWS is required to address the current and anticipated deficiencies in EW warfighting capabilities. 107

IEWS will mitigate these current and emerging risks to ground forces, increase situational awareness on 108 the battlefield, strengthen force protection, and provide increased options to the warfighter. IEWS will 109 integrate existing capabilities and provide new EW capabilities to the Army. IEWS will be developed 110 along three lines of effort, which are EWPMT, Multi-Function EW (MFEW) and Defensive EA (DEA). 111

Building blocks of IEWS will be modular, scalable and interoperable to allow system growth in responses 112 to a variety of threats and scenarios. 113

The proliferation of EW technologies worldwide and the ease, with which they are acquired, 114 necessitates EW as a core capability in the Army. In order to provide an EW capability across the force it 115 is necessary to first develop the framework to integrate all future capabilities into a networked, modular 116 system that is achievable and affordable. Electronic Warfare Planning and Management Tool (EWPMT) 117 is the framework that coherently incorporates EW into full spectrum operations. Given an ever 118 changing and electromagnetic rich target environment, the Army requires mission planning capabilities 119 to ensure it develops timely and effective plans. 120

EWPMT relies on a capability drop approach that utilizes fielded and emerging EW platforms, 121 communication system technologies and architectures, and space-based systems. These systems will 122 virtually interconnect through networks to maximize Army EW capabilities. EWPMT will seamlessly 123 exchange information horizontally and vertically between service and joint mission partners. EWPMT 124 will be adaptable enough to be accessed from all echelons as well as the Global information Grid at the 125

Secret. EWPMT supports several warfighting functions in order to support EW missions and tasks at the 126 operation and tactical levels of command within the current and future force. 127

EWPMT is software giving EWOs a mission planning capability to plan, coordinate, manage, and 128 deconflict unit EW activities. It will provide battle management for distributed, networked EW 129 capability, aligned with fires and synchronize air and ground electromagnetic spectrum operations 130 across the G2/3/6. EWPMT capabilities include producing EW orders and estimates, plan and 131 appropriately employ EW assets, conduct effective EW targeting using lethal and non-lethal fires 132 support; enhance development of the Electronic Order of Battle; and conduct EW battle damage 133 assessment. EMPMT will provide a risk assessment and Course of Action (COA) development for EW 134 missions with all software applications and tools being hosted on existing CPCE servers. 135
