US EPAA & EU national Contributions

Technical architectureoperational and sustained byon going operational programs

NATO BMC3 and SE&I

STANAG 5535 & 5518

The Threat is growing creating more stress on the defense where time factor is key

NATO Interoperability through L16 JRE Network is on its way. NATO and the Nations

called for more cooperation on MD, more interoperability and operational readiness.

Multifunction sensors are available or in development. They could be networked into clusters under L16 Network to increase the systems capacity and the resilience

2 types of clusters :cooperative or integrative

Includes National Caveats

▌ Rules for a Cluster:

Cluster declaration: National C²

▌ Within cluster:

Declaration of services

- Modes, rotating, starring

- Mission: tracking search

- Performances assessment

- NCTR capabilities Smart sensor management

- Sensor load management

- Priority targets management

- Environment adaptation

- Re acquisition

- Multi radar trackingFLEXIBLE: SCALABLE, INTEGRABLE, SEPARABLE CLUSTERS

• Cooperative= exchange of data between nation A and nation B sensors

• Integrative= exchange of services inside a cluster with nation A and B sensors

Expected Improvement aimed by sensors clusters

Avoid Saturation of MFR sensors due to raids

Clusters are not permanent, deployed, set or separated according to plans

creating multinational effective weapons –sensors associations

Increase the synergy of resources applied to search, track, discrimination

Balance the saturation of one function by another sensor

Improve the accuracy of tracking and fire control (more resources focused)

Improve the range (harmonization of EM resources allocated to detection; tracking,..)

Maximize the battlespace

Improve timing, reactivity and engagement timeline

Improve resilience to threat by spreading resources and enhancing subsidiarity:

Multifrequency, mutilsensors, multiple sources (multi static)

Benefit to the nations

Improve the interactivity between sensors for Air&Missile Defense

Add a new level of cooperation and interoperability between nations compatible with NATO BMC3

Such sensor networking could be used also for other partners and friendly nations when decided

Enhancement of sensors/ weapons systems intrinsic performances, flexibility, adaptibilityand robustness to the threat

Increase the capacity of MFR systems thanks to a better use of EM resources

Take advantage of sensors clusters as a flexible network that can be adapted to operational and political context

Benefit to Industry

25

Common data exchange will improve the performance of modular systems

Improve the performance and offer options to combine different technologies and systemswith their specificities while meeting interfaces standards

Improve final cost effectiveness fo the sensors and systems in clusters including existing systems

Facilitate access to market by making sensors compatible

Take advantages of other studies and efforts, eg:� Maritime TMD Forum BMC4I WG and work related to plot level data and fusion� NATO BMD SE&I� STANAG 5535/ ADatP-35 developement efforts� Studies conducted by Science and Study groups on MFR radars
