Mission Description and Budget Item Justification: This is a Tactical Intelligence and Related Activities (TIARA) program. US Forces have an urgent need for a wide-area surveillance and target attack radar system capable of continuous coverage out to a depth in excess of 100km beyond their Forward Line of Troops. Commanders must have the capability to detect, locate, classify and track moving and stationary targets for situation assessment to avoid surprise and attack targets out to the range of existing and developing weapons. The Joint Surveillance and Target Attack Radar System (JSTARS) provides battle management and targeting of enemy units at critical times and places so commanders can employ their organic forces and firepower in support of deep, close and rear operations. The joint Army/Air Force program objective is to develop a radar, datalink, ground station, and airframe that will provide the capability to locate, track and classify tracked and wheeled vehicles beyond ground line-of-sight during the day, night and under most weather conditions. Radar data is distributed to ground station modules via a secure surveillance and control data link. The Army developed the ground components of the JSTARS under this PE, project D202. In remaining years, the Army will continue to develop, and validate performance enhancing Pre-Planned Product Improvements (P3I). Also included in this PE is project D2CT with FY 96 funding for the Multi-Service Operational Test and Evaluation (MOTE). The projects in this program element support development efforts in the Engineering and Manufacturing Development phases of the Acquisition Strategy and therefore are correctly placed in Budget Activity 5.

A. Mission Description and Justification: The Army will develop the ground components of the JSTARS under this PE/Project. The Ground Station Module (GSM) is being developed in a Block approach. Block I Ground Station Modules (GSM) utilize the same prime mission equipment and will be developed and deployed on different platforms. The Block I Medium GSM (MGSM) is housed in a standard S280 shelter and mounted on a 5 Ton Truck. The rapidly deployable Block I Light GSM (LGSM) is housed in a Standard Integrated Command Post Shelter (SICPS) and mounted on a High Mobility Multi-Purpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV). A Block I Heavy GSM (HGSM) prototype was also assembled. This variant integrated the GSM prime mission equipment into a Command and Control Vehicle (C2V) (a Bradley variant). Also included in this project is the development of the Block II GSM now called the Common Ground Station (CGS). The CGS will integrate signal, imagery, and other intelligence processing into a single ground station, resulting in enhanced battle management as well as significant cost savings. These enhancements are being implemented in a phased approach of Pre-Planned Product Improvements (P3I) initiatives and provide significant expansion of the system performance parameters. Significant enhancements include: integration of Secondary Imagery Dissemination, extended range (SATCOM relay) capability, full on the move and manportable operations as well as integration/interface with other service/allied sensor systems.

Acquisition Strategy: In December 1995, the JSTARS Ground Station Program awarded an eight year [basic plus seven one year options] production contract to acquire the balance of ground stations required to meet Army needs. The first two years of the contract are Low Rate Initial Production (LRIP) with the first deliveries participating in a September 1997 Operational Test. This test will support the Milestone III decision scheduled for May 1998. The contract also includes provisions for the design, development and test of various P3Is. Following P3I prove out, the modifications are folded into the production contract via fixed price contract revisions.
