Undersea Warfare Advanced Development
Project Description
MAI provides critical technical support to the Program Executive Officer Integrated Warfare Systems Office Director of Advanced Development (Undersea Warfare Systems) (PEO IWS 5A) in the development of undersea warfare technologies and systems. These technologies include Antisubmarine Warfare (ASW) distributed autonomous sensors such as the Deep Water Active Distributed System (DWADS) and the Reliable Acoustics Path Vertical Line Array (RAP VLA), a Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) Variable Depth Sonar (VDS), and the Surface Ship ASW Synthetic Trainer (SAST).
MAI supports the planning and execution of advanced development at-sea testing and conducts analysis of the test measurements in support of sensor development. To accomplish these activities MAI conducts interactions with U.S. Navy Fleet activities to arrange for Fleet services, conducts performance modeling in support of test planning, and provides observers and test directors for test execution. MAI supports the development of the LCS VDS by co-chairing the Systems Integration Integrated Process Team (IPT), participating in other system development IPTs, and chairing the Test and Evaluation Working Group. For SAST development MAI provides critical expertise with the marine biosphere behavior and target strengths.
