- Description
- The MC2A is the key piece of the MC2 Constellation that will extend the commander?s eyes and ears while serving as the primary element of the C2 architecture. The first increment of MC2A will utilize an MP-RTIP radar on a 767-400ER with a BMC4I suite that provides initial battle management capability to include ground moving target indicator missions, Cruise Missile Defense, UAV control, and time critical targeting in support of the Air Operations Center. The second increment is planned to add Airborne Early Warning and Control capabilities. The MC2A will be fully integrated within the architecture of joint combat and ISR systems, space-based systems, and all-source intelligence exploitation systems to achieve the highest predictive battlespace awareness. The BMC4I subsystem consists of all of the non-radar and non-aircraft subsystems including the central computing architecture, networks, data storage, data manipulation, data fusion, data exploitation, communications and data link capability. The MC2A BMC4I contractor will provide improvements in the quality and timeliness of information to support more rapid decision analysis, increased battlespace awareness, and shorter decision cycle to advance information superiority and precision engagement. The contractor will also support the development of training merging airborne and ground battle management functions to minimize the training burden on the operators. The MC2A BMC4I subsystem will allow for future capability growth, utilize Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) to the maximum extent possible, be Common Operating Environment (COE) compliant and utilize open systems architecture to achieve the highest levels of systems interoperability. It will handle data at multiple levels of security and will fuse on and off board data to create a common operational picture.
