Product Description:• Develop a common scalable architecture

(hardware & software) that extends the lifetime of legacy radar systems, improving reliability and supportability.

Warfighter Payoff:• Affordable OA core relevant to legacy afloat

systems.• Passive design features for extended

reliability.• Flexibility to work within littoral spectrum

restrictions.• Improved ECCM for capable combat

operations.• Higher resolution for NCID and closely spaced

objects.

CDSA independent business case analysis estimates nearly $1B TOC Savings over the anticipated 40 year life cycle starting in 2012.

MFEW Program ObjectivesMFEW Program Objectives

• Develop a MFEW Advanced Development Model (ADM) for DDG-1000 that:– Meets key Electronic Surveillance capabilities: High Probability of

Intercept (HPOI), Precision Direction Finding (PDF), and Specific Emitter Identification (SEI)

– Is capable of supporting additional RF functions

– Supports other platform configurations, including back-fit

• Develop an architecture that is modular, scalable, and open

• Conduct MFEW ADM testing that:– Demonstrates critical technology elements

– Enables cost/performance trade-offs

– Enables refining of requirements
