- Description
- 1.0 The Space & Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWAR) intends to post a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) in September 2006 to solicit white papers on various engineering studies for the Advanced Communications Package (ACP) Program. The BAA will specify the engineering study topics on which white papers will be sought. ACP is a communications payload for MQ-8B Firescout Vertical Take off and Landing Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (VTUAV) that will extend the range of off- board sensors from the Littoral Combat Ship (LCS). ACP will be integrated and operated with the VTUAV. ACP will provide a non-Satellite Communication (SATCOM) Over-the-Horizon (OTH) data relay capability between the LCS and its remote sensors, thus allowing the LCS to develop and maintain an OTH tactical picture of the battlespace using organic sensors. These sensors will include unmanned vehicles and deployable sensors. ACP will simultaneously relay control signals and data via TCDL and L-Band data links between the LCS and its sensors. 2.0 SYNPOSIS TERMS - THIS IS AN ADVANCED NOTICE SYNOPSIS ONLY.
