(2) New Guidance and concept

Basic document (EMCCC/54/MEMO/lO (Revised)) has been replaced by EMÇCC/58/MEMO/37 dated 5 May 1958. The former concept of closing the majority of transmitters and of minute to minute control was abandoned. The new guidance is based on the "continuous operation of transmitters of vital importance". Nevertheless, because of consideration, wherever possible, being given to "preplanned measures", the possibility of an enemy using these transmissions as navigational aids is reduced to a minimum. The new guidance also places transmitters in three categories: on, off and controlled.

Supreme Commands and Subordinate Commands'have given additional directives in accordance with the new guidance and national plans are under consideration and approval. (3) Continuing Studies

Revision of the SHAPE Alert P lan is under study and is expected in the near future, after which the EMCCC will give views as to possible continuation of meetings of the radio transmission control panels. Considerable discussion through the year has taken place on Specific problems as Categorization of TACAN, recategori­ zation of LORAN, control of civil (entertainment) broadcasting transmitters in wartime, organization of exercises, Intelligence information. The latest views expressed were disseminated by EMCCC/59/SEC/5 dated 20 February 1959. Minutes of the Tenth Plenary Meeting of the R adio Transmissions Control Panels.

f . Wartime Terms of References for EMCCC

A proposed change to SGM-143-57 Terms of Reference NATO Communications Electronics Agencies dated 25 February 1957 is under consideration for comments and/or approval by all Nations before this proposed change can be forwarded to the Standing Group. The change would set forth specific information as to how EMCCC would function during the survival period which is fixed by NATO as the first thirty days following the outbreak of hostilities. g.. VHF/UHF Conversion

(1) The SHAPE UHF Conversion programme to install UHF equipment in all of SACEUR's air, naval and ground forces was divided into three phases as indicated in AG/61OO/I/SIG dated 31 August 1953 and in AG/6100/3 SIG/EL dated 24 March 1956.

The SHAPE minimum standards by phase were also given in the same documents.

(2) i.. Ground Equipment

In general, half of the ground radio UHF equipment rely completed and for the other half the majority of essential facilities in the ground equipment are now in operation. Completion of conversion is expected during 1962. Status as of 1 February is included in Appendix to Enclosure.

AGENDA ITEM 3b

REPORT OF THE CHAIRMAN. EUROPEAN RADIO FREQUENCY AGENCY

The following report on projects, problems and progress of ERFA is submitted to the 7th NATO C-E Board . This report covers only those major developments since the last meeting of the C-E Board. No comment is made on the routine work of the Agency, involving frequency selection, coordination, management, recording and reporting.

1. 225-400 Mc/s Band.

The congestion and generally unsatisfactory conditions of

this band, as reported to the 6th C-E Board meeting, have now been largely corrected. There are still some problems in the band, and others undoubtedly will arise in the future; however, the present

status is considered very satisfactory. The solution of this problem has proven most difficult over a period of some three years and its achievement is considered a great credit to the co-operation of all

NATO Nations and Supreme Commands. Two activities led to this

solution as outlined below. a. New. Plan.

A new plan for the allocation of the band between air,

naval and radio relay uses has been adopted. This is not the ideal plan for any single usage, nor for equipment used by some Nations; however, it was agreed as the best compromise which would permit reasonable operation of all usages in the band. The complete plan is contained in Draft ERFA/Memo 1 (Second

Revision) dated 29 January 1959.

b. Standing Group W orking Party As a result of decisions made at the 5th C-E Board meeting, the Standing Group established a Working Party to

recommend actions to decrease the congestion in the 225-400 Mc/s band. The Working Party met in July and November 1958. Action

6. Frequencies for Maritime Mobile Use

The bands below 27.5 Mc/s allotted to maritime mobile use

are possibly the most congested in the entire frequency spectrum.

Great difficulty is always experienced in obtaining Allied Command frequencies in these bands. SHAPE has recently submitted a require­ ment for 3*+ frequencies for maritime mobile use in the Southern

European region. SHAPE is now planning additional requirements for

the Northern and Southern areas which will necessitate of the order

of 1OO additional maritime mobile frequencies. Discussion of these requirements at the December 1958 ERFA Committee meeting brought out that many Members felt that these requirements could never be satisfied unless they were strongly justified at the very highest level. Negotiations are continuing within ERFA but it is felt that the problem might have to be referred to higher authority in the near future.

7• Wartime Frequency Organisation

Studies and discussions on the suitability of the NATO wartime frequency organisation have been conducted during the past year. This activity has led to detailed examination of all frequency organisations and procedures but to date no definite findings nor recommendations have been agreed. The study of frequency organisatio has been expanded to include examination of wartime frequency plans.

Both studies are continuing.

8. Scatter Frequencies.

Frequencies for the ACE ionospheric and tropospheric scatter systems and for the associated radio realy terminal links have been generally agreed. There are some detailed adjustments which must be made in several countries\ however, these adjustments are so involved with the engineering of the circuits that they are being handled bilaterally between the SHAPE Scatter Section and the countries concerned. ERFA continues to monitor the progress of these frequency negotiations.

3.3. To ensure a high standard of readiness, all circuits will be tested at frequent intervals, and it is pro­ posed that once a year an Exercise be held during which all circuits would be switched into service to test the overall arrangements.

FURTHER ACTION 4.1. The procedure to be adopted for transmitting the order from SACEUR to the National Authority to activate the circuits with the minimum delay is still under discussion.

4.2. Likewise, the rental cost of a PX circuit to include the special tests and exercises referred to above has yet to be decided by the PTTs. 4.3. Finally, an agreed procedure must be published in the ELLA Compendium and a date promulgated for the introduction of the new category.

FORECAST None of the outstanding points in para. 4 should create any major obstacle to the settlement of this question. The present lists of circuits submitted by Commands for possible transfer into the PX category show a tendency to transfer more circuits from the reserved categories than from the category. This is, no doubt, due to the natu ral reluctance of the Commands to subscribe wholeheartedly to an untried scheme. Initially, therefore, the financial saving to NATO may be small, but once the scheme is in­ augurated and PTTs have demonstrated their ability to pro - vide the circuits within the time limit, Commands may be expected to relegate a larger proportion of ? 0 circuits to this new category.

'l nr~~ (like STÉAt)/V,■ • the, îproblem of "Military Switching Centres" :jc^iMalnly be raised again. In fact , in these . the time for switching is so short that jjfcan be considered practically non-existent; there exists the possibility of dealing with traffic of different priorities; and, last but not least, they afford extreme operational flexibility. It could thus be pos­ sible to obtain the advantages both of a switched network and of a non-delay traffic. It should also be pointed out that the more extensive use of automatic switching for long distance calls in the telephone network will certainly force us to consider the same problem relating to telephone circuits. It is, there jre, considered possible that the adoption of a combined military telephone and telegraph switched network will have to be con­ sidered in the future, practically along the same lines as the German Federal Republic has already adopted.

The eventual Implementation of a network of this type will certainly need a great deal of detailed preliminary work, for which ELLA is ready to give Its full support.

The are not affected inasmuch as the hazardous duty allowances cater for this problem. . # b. By SGM-225-58, 9 April 58, the Standing Group agreed in principle the policy of compartmentation of networks as a means of minimizing the effects of a compromise on widely held NATO cryptosystems. SHAPE was invited to carry out experiments on compartmentation in order to determine how best to effect compart­ mentation. c.. The urgency of this problem was pointed out at the last CEB meeting and does not need reemphasizing. With the present distribution of Adonis key lists, it is felt that at the outbreak of hostilities, the Adonis key lists would be immediately compromised leaving a large portion of NATO with no means of secure communica­ tions, especially Divisions, Army Corps and Airfields. d. It is emphasized that a solution to this problem must provide for secure communications in the 2nd level crypto systems between the remaining units of division or Army Corps size in the event a division or corps headquarters (or airfield and comparable size Air Force units) is overrun or destroyed without the possibility of destroying or reporting destruction of their cryptographic holdings. It must be noted that the units with which we are concerned in this problem have for NATO use only the Adonis system at their disposal while organizations of the higher echelon (Arry, Area Command) have other secure NATO means such as one-time tape systems. While the experiments being carried out by SHAPE partially cover the overall problem by limiting a compromise to an area (three such areas are contemplated within the SHAPE area), it does not cover the requirement stated above. e. Pending the determination by SHAPE of the ultimate requirements for compartmentation, it is urged that a resolution of the problem set forth in para, d above, even a partial solution is highly desirable.

5• Policy on control of compartmented cryptonets. a. As a corollary to the foregoing a need has been expressed for a policy governing the establishment and control of compartmented crypto networks. This was discussed at the 20th meeting of ECSA but it was agreed to postpone action until the results of the compartmentation trials being conducted by SHAPE are known. b. It is the feeling of the Chairman, ECSA, that such a policy is not dependent upon the results of the SHAPE trial and that, to the contrary, the SHAPE trial should include a trial of the ' control policy. Moreover, it is felt that some policy of that kind is required for the conduct of the trial. ç. It is recommended that early consideration be given to the establishment of a policy governing the establishment and control of compartmented crypto networks.

SECRET - NATO

the United Kingdom is aware this STANAG stems from an agreed operational requirement, and no statement has yet been made that the requirement has been changed. (AC/13O-R/2 dated 1st October 1958 refers). This action has caused some confusion,

and if persisted in could have widespread and serious conse­ quences .

4. The present lack of clarity may be due in part from the absence of an Appendix "C" to MC 2 O A dated l6th January 1958 at the time it was issued. The United Kingdom notes with satisfaction that a draft of Appendix C has now been circulated under MCM-169-58 dated 29th December 1958, and hopes that this will finally produce the desired effect. Until this draft is accepted, however, and incorporated in MC 2 O A the United Kingdom desires that the existing anomalous state be aired and discussed before the Board with a view to establishing clearly and finally the respective areas of respon­ sibility of the civil and military bodies, and to effect better

co-ordination and co-operation between them.

SUPPORTING STATEMENT BY UNITED STATES

M COMMON NATO CIVIL/MILTTARY PLANNING FOR JOINT USE OF TACAN CHANNELS

1. The NATO has standardized on TACAN for military utilization. VOR is listed in Annex 10 to the ICAO Convention as the civil standard air navigation aid for terminal use where, because of traffic density, there is a requirement for such a device. Because of the number of VORs now operating in the Western European area it is also being used an an enroute aid. The special COM/OPS/RAC meeting convened under the auspices of the International Civil Aviation Organization in February 1959,

Montreal, recommended:

a. The continuation and expansion of the ICAO Standard

VOR, and its full recognition as the standard aid for both

enrouue- and terminal use. b. Changing the present ICAO DME Specification Standards to "DMET". DMET, although similar in fundamental principle

of operation, differs from the present ICAO DME in channeling

techniques, identification, pulse shape, space moding, and

reply delay. This includes the international standardization of a VOR/DMET frequency pairing plan which is identical to that in use in the United States. c. DMET as a complement to VOR, when, for operational reasons or because of air traffic control reasons such as air traffic density and proximity of routes, there is a need for more precise navigation. d. A protection date for the proposed DMET and extension of protection for VOR to 1 January 1975* The revised SHAPE TACAN Plan published 30 November 1957,

"a. Nations should be asked to provide at least two circuits

of HF single-sideband in destroyers and above as soon as possible

with immediate priority being given to carriers, cruisers and

ships fitted as pickets.

b. The requirement for fitting SSB equipment in submarines,

maritime aircraft and surface ships for mutual co-operation

should be actively studied, bearing in mind the importance of

sub-air barrier communications, and future ICAO requirements.

c. The requirement for SSB equipment should be reflected

in the minimum fitting scales."

5. These recommendations were forwarded to the Standing Group

in SACLANT's serial N-13Ô2 of 29 December 1958..

RECOMMENDATIONS

6 . It is recommended that the Board: a. Note naval requirements in paragraph 4.

b. Endeavour to hasten agreements on compatibility and

fitting scales.

RECOMMENDATIONS

4. France recommends that the Standing Group should:

a. Rapidly adopt and promulgate SACLANT's draft, taking

into account detail amendments proposed by ENCA, which would

constitue a first step towards a system less complex and more

clearly presented than AMSP 248.

b. Continue to study a "single and simple authentieation

system", SACLANT's draft being undoubtedly an improvement on

ANSP 248 but its use still being comparatively lengthy and

complicated.

SUPPORTING STATEMENT BY SACLANT

OIL.

CALLSIGNS AND ADDRESS GROUP ENCRYPTION PLAN

1. By SACLANT serial N-1315 dated 3 December 1958 and message

O12248Z DEC 1958, the recommendations of NAVMAIRCOMCON 58/2 and

LANTCOMCON 58/2 with regard to the whole field of callsign encryption were forwarded to the Standing Group. These documents are attached as Annexes "A" and "B" respectively.

2. Briefly, they reflect the strong feeling of the operational commanders that the callsign systems outlined in NATOCOM 103 are operationally unacceptable. This is based on the fact that the security requirements have made the system cumbersome, slow, and liable to error. Because of this, it has been recommended that call­ signs in the immediate future be used unencrypted, until such time as the operational requirements given in detail in serial N-1315 can be met.

3. As an interim measure, for exercises only, SACLANT has directed that all ACLANT exercises will use unencrypted callsigns from NCCP-4. Blocks of CW and voice callsigns from this book have therefore been allocated to JOINTCINCEASTLANT, CINCWESTLANT' and

COMSTRIKFLTLANT for use in exercises.

4. Until a suitable callsign encryption system is available,i t is planned to have ACLANT forces use callsigns from ACP's unencrypted during an emergency or war. SACLANT major subordinate commands have been so advised.

FROM: SACLANT TO: SGN INFO: SACEUR MOD FRANCE MOD NORWAY JO INTO I IC EAS TLA NT CINCHAN MOD GERMANY MOD PORTUGAL CINCWE3TLANT MOD BELGIUM MOD GREECE MOD TURKEY COMSTRIKFLTLANT MOD CANADA MOD ITALY MOD UK MOD DENMARK MOD NETHERLANDS SECDEF US

NATO X LANTO 519

1. At NAVMAIRCOMCON 58/2 Supreme Commanders Representatives

agreed that the interim system for callsign encryption promulgated

by NATOCOM 103 is operationally unacceptable for naval and maritime

air use,since it is very cumbersome, due to its complexity. This is

based on experience in NATO and national exercises in both ACE and

ACLANT (E.G. SHIPSHAPE and MEDASWEX 2 6 .) .

2 . The two main objections to the system are:

a. The complicated encryption/decryption process which

involves 48 movements of cipher machine to derive even one CW

or voice callsign. Apart from prodigious effort and time needed ,

this process is conductive to producing errors.

b. Voice callsigns change too frequently and are too

cumbersome for effective use.

3. The final revised system referred to in para. 1 of NATOCOM10 will not overcome these objections.

4 . The introduction of either of these systems in an emergency would result in a serious disruption of communications.

5. It is therefore recommended that:

a. The interim system be placed in abeyance forthwith.

b. The fin al revised system be withheld from use.

SECRET - NATO - 90 - Annex "B" SGM-162-59 too AgendaAgera Item 32 SACLANT Appendix "A" to Enclosure 1 SECRET - NATO

c. Urgent efforts be made to produce a system which meets

operational requirements by placing more emphasis on simplicity

and speed.

d. Until such time as an acceptable system is produced, CW

and voice callsigns be used unencrypted.

e. For maritime aircraft, and, where necessary, maritime

air bases and MHQ's, NDCP-4 should continue to be used.

f. For voice callsigns, the phonetic version of the CW

callsign should be used. Where NCCP-4 is still held, Operational

Commanders should be permitted to order its use on c tactial

voice circuits.

6. A statement of the operational requirements for callsign

encryption systems, together with comments on the security problems, will be forwarded to SGN separately.
