The U.S. Navy has successfully tested Raytheon's advanced intelligence,
surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) technologies aboard the experimental
ship known as the M80 Stiletto, while the vessel was underway. The test
took place during operations at Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek-Fort
Story, Virginia. |
The
combined technology was created by combining two, proven Raytheon technologies:
the Persistent Surveillance System Cross Domain Solution (PSS CDS) and
Intersect™ Sentry. The successful test was conducted as part of
the Stiletto Maritime Technology Demonstration Program.
PSS CDS receives critical data from multiple sensors and offers two-way
sharing of information and commands across both classified and unclassified
domains. Intersect™ Sentry is an automation and analysis tool
that creates alerts from a variety of intelligence, sensor and reconnaissance
data streams according to parameters defined by the user. Both systems
have been successfully demonstrated in support of joint and coalition
maritime operations.
"Raytheon has created two capabilities that are easily reconfigured
for deployment on multiple missions," said Bob Dehnert, Command,
Control and Awareness director for Raytheon Intelligence, Information
and Services. "They give warfighters proven, automated information
sharing and analysis support for surveillance missions in any domain."
During the Navy demonstration, Intersect™ Sentry automatically
analyzed data streams and sent alerts to the PSS CDS for simultaneous
display across various networks, creating a common operating picture
for different users operating at multiple classification levels.
The recent capability demonstration, designated CD 15-2, was one of
a series sponsored by the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research
& Engineering. The Stiletto Maritime Demonstration Program and the
Stiletto vessel are operated by the U.S. Navy, Naval Surface Warfare
Center, Carderock Division. |
