Special Project Office (SPO)
Project 1
Background
- Provide on-site
program management support to SPOs at Wright-Patterson AFB
- The EC-130H aircraft
is the world’s most capable
offensive counterinformation (OCI) system, specializing in command
and control warfare against adversary IADS, battle management, and
other communications and data systems
Approach &
Capabilities
- Upgrade evolutionary
acquisition strategy fields squadronwide updates for target system
currency
- Maximum use of
open-architecture/COTS subsystems software adapted for OCI mission
keeps technical edge and preserves mission and system flexibility
- The SPO
streamlined acquisition approach fields updated systems sooner to
match dynamic nature of communications system targets’ technical
evolution
- Dedicated quick-reaction interfaces for immediate crisis support
Technology
- High-speed,
programmable narrowband digital receivers
- Programmable, high-power,
multimode RF amplifiers
- High-speed embedded
adapted COTS signal processors
- FDDI LAN
architecture/Custom OS
