14 DNR Support to MCP MCP DNR Support to MCPs is a significant, vital and largely unseen tasking that must receive a high priority; But, if not DNR, Qui? 14

15 Submarine Capability DNR 9 15

16 Underwater Warfare (Sub Warfare) - Outlook Challenges Modern, stealthy submarines Advanced submarine combat systems High contact density environments Opportunities Tech refreshes instead of complete replacement Rapid environmental assessment Off-board surveillance systems Unmanned underwater vehicles Anti-torpedo defence systems Future Focus Improvement to Victoria Class Information Warfare (C4ISTAR) capability Improved collection capability: Upgrade to Electronic Warfare systems and periscope imagery Improved sonar systems inclusive of post mission analysis Improved communication capacity: Large bandwidth satellite communications system

17 Naval Mine Countermeasures (NMCM) DNR 3 17

18 Naval Mine Countermeasures (NMCM) & Diving Outlook Challenges: Stockpiles of legacy sea mines Proliferation of modern sea mines Advanced sea mine sensors Ease of deployment Requirement to operate in the littoral Requirement to operate in the Arctic Maritime IEDs are easy to construct,yet pose challenges to render safe Opportunities: Access to robust COTS technologies Technological advances in: - Unmanned Systems - Synthetic Aperture Sonar - Low Frequency Broadband Sonar - Automated detection/classification - U/W communications - Signature Management Systems Leveraging opportunities with allies Future Focus Achieve Full NMCM operational capability Enhance the Kingston Class remote mine hunting and disposal systems 18

19 Enablers & Multipliers Outlook DNR 3 Legacy Platforms, Auxiliary Vessels, MCDVs, NMCM & Diving, Seamanship, Operational Clothing, EOD, FP Challenges: Ever evolving ships small boats role Improved crewing protection (clothing) Harbour services to meet the needs of recap fleet e.g. tugs, crane barges Recapitalising unique capabilities e.g. diving, FP, UUVs Opportunities: Access to robust COTS technologies Technological advances in: - Unmanned Systems - Diving systems Shipbuilding Industry ISSC Leveraging opportunities with allies Future Focus Leverage current technology to provide operational support, including clothing and equipment required for naval operations ashore or at sea replace obsolete and aging support equipment, systems, auxiliary vessels and clothing to support the requirements of the recapitalized fleet 19

20 Naval Large Tug To provide sufficient large tug capacity to Queen s Harbour Masters in HMC Dockyards to support naval operations over the next 25 years Update Project in Options Analysis Procurement Strategy Competitive Migrate afloat harbour fire protection into tugs 6 tugs (3 ea coast)

21 Surface Combatant Boat (SCB) Replace the Halifax Class Hurricane RHIB and ship s davit with a higher capacity launch & recovery system Update Initiative Procurement Strategy Competitive Up to 30 ship s boats systems

22 Above Water Warfare (AWW) DNR 4 22

23 Above Water Warfare Outlook Challenges: Proliferation of Anti-ship Missiles Ultra and Hypersonic weapons Missiles with small (marble-sized) RCS Enhanced naval strike platforms Precision guided munitions (GPS) ASM firing submarines Littoral Operations Fast Attack Craft (FAC) PIRACY High density surface traffic Future Focus Opportunities: Multi-sensor fusion Technology Demonstrations: C3MADD/CORALS Networked sensors Enhanced Electronic Attack USV Phased Array Radar technology Directed Energy Weapons: LOCATES Joint Fires Ballistic Missile Defence Integrated Air and Missile Defence (IAMD) as well as Joint Fires in the Littoral IAMD: Cross platform integration using netted sensor technology Radar suite design and requirements Future SAM capability Joint Fires (Naval Fires Support) 02/04/2013

28 SATCOM OUTLOOK Challenges: RCN has never experienced so many SATCOM projects at the same time No single SATCOM solution meets all requirements System diversity impact on training load and life cycle support Topside space & weight constraints Potential for interference with other systems Compatibility with RCAF, CA, 5-EYES Capability insertion during HCM programme Limited Arctic SATCOM coverage Opportunities: Improved multi-band antennas Dual band is good. Is Tri-band feasible? Eliminate manual swap of feed horns at topside Merging single-purpose Sat Com systems, e.g. Sat TV, into other Sat Com systems Develop Joint SATCOM modems (and agree to common modem settings lexicon) WGS certification improves marketability Develop Arctic SATCOM space segment Future Focus Continue evolving from single service provider/single band (L) to multiple service providers/multi-band (X, Ku, Q, Mil Ka, L) Interoperability with RCAF, CA, 5-EYES (AUSCANNZUKUS) Wideband SATCOM Maritime Sat Com Upgrade (MSCU) Project OTHER COMMS OUTLOOK Challenges: Aging legacy systems such as HF, UHF, and control systems how to address in fiscally and HR-constrained environment? Ensuring compatibility with changes to shore infrastructure Ensuring some compatibility with RCAF and CA (e.g. support to forces ashore) Ensuring new radios, crypto, antennas, etc can be centrally and automatically controlled Strong desire for equipment commonality across new ship classes Capability insertion during HCM programme Opportunities: Software definable radios Growth path for new waveforms Offers some future-proofing Develop scalable solutions for small to large ships Improve training methods simulated/pcbased training rather than hardware Future Focus Conduct business case for HF (Internet Protocol) Investigate options for legacy equipment replacement Line of Sight Comms UHF Sub Net Relay (SNR) Project

41 Advice & Participation re Costing our Ambition re Capability Roadmap ASKS OF INDUSTRY re shaping our industry engagement (ie; best-practices; encouragement!) Engagement with DNR Staff No brochures please; we need details Think as we do: in capability terms, not in terms of products Consider our limitations and constraints If you have put pen-to-paper and can share most beneficial; especially if we can share it Regret we can t get you a written reply Commonality Mutually beneficial? How? How achieve? 41
