 Cyber Attack – Hardware, software, and services whose primary purpose is to attack and/or exploit civilian and military computer networks and the data they contain.  Cyber Security – Hardware, software, and services whose primary purpose is to protect civilian and military computer networks and the data they contain. Cyber Security also includes response to attack/exploitation efforts that are defensive in nature.

 Cyber Support – Hardware, software and services whose primary purpose is related supporting roles such as maintenance, sustainment, education/training and compliance/governance.  HLS Networks – Wireless and hardwired connection of COTS terminals, radios, sensors, and/or command & control systems so that voice, video or data can be quickly and easily transmitted and/or received by a number of users at different locations for Homeland Security missions.  IFF/Identification – Active or passive non-radar systems and devices employing communications methods for interrogation, responding and identification.  ISR Data Link – Used to rapidly transmit a large amount of data and/or video from ISR collection platforms and use higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths to achieve the high data rates required. Examples include the Common Data Link (CDL), Tactical Common Data Link (TCDL), Multi-Platform Common Data Link (MP- CDL) and the Common Data Link-Navy (CDL-N).  Jammer – Active communications countermeasure systems that can defeat enemy signal transmissions and receiving capabilities that operate primarily in the LF to SHF communications frequencies.  Multiple – This category includes any instance when the record involves more than one functional segmentation category.  Network Infrastructure – Computers, data storage, displays, wired and wireless links, cell-phones and other handheld devices, software applications, encryption and information assurance that provide fixed infrastructure to C2ISR facilities and databases in the home country and within forward operating bases linked by commercial SATCOM and fiber optic cables. This infrastructure is non-tactical in nature. COTS IT serves this segment and encrypted civilian networks provide the links; the encryption at the device level is often the exception to COTS.  Platform Intercom Systems – Networks internal to the platform that connect devices and their operators inside the platform with each other and with an external network through a network node which is an external communications device.  SatComm/Bandwidth – This segment identifies commercial satellite communications bandwidth that governments lease to augment their military SATCOM systems or as an alternative to them. The commercial SATCOM payloads are not part of the MILCOM forecast, but COTS terminal procurement is in SatComm Terminals and ID/IQ contract vehicles in Network Infrastructure.  SatComm/Payload – This segment identifies Communications systems that are on board Military Communications satellites. Telecommunications as such is not a part of the Military Communications Market Database, and military satellites are covered in the Spacecraft Market. Examples of military Satellite Communications Payloads would be the satellite communications portions of MILSTAR/(AEHF) Advanced EHF, (WGS) Wideband Global System and (MUOS) Mobile User Objective System. If military communications payloads do come to be hosted on commercial satellites, they would appear here. Collocation issues now make that unlikely.  SatComm/Terminals – Satellite Communications Terminals are somewhat like Tactical Terminals in terms of supporting host platforms. SATCOM Terminals are generally hosted on platforms and ground facilities although there are manportable MILSTAR/AEHF terminals. They have modems and function as transceivers for the host’s satellite communications networks. They are the counterpart to Satellite

Communications Payloads. Satellite Payloads and the Terminals are frequently referred to as SATCOM networks.  Situational Awareness Data Link – Used primarily to distribute battlefield information updates among various platforms and users. Situational awareness data links typically operate at lower frequencies and longer wavelengths with lower throughput rates and transmit short message sets. Examples include Link 11, Link 16, JTIDS and MIDS.  Strategic Comm – Special military communications programs, systems & products primarily intended for and used in Strategic Command and Control missions and operations. Equipment could be point to point or broadcast, use a variety of frequencies and may use satellite or other means of message distribution. Strategic Communication usually has high security and credential features. Strategic Communication here refers to the nature of the communications as opposed to the distance or range of communications. It typically, however, must have a long distance communications capability which may then require relay nodes, links or other special features.  Tactical Networks – Tactical Networks represent an extension of tactical terminals that would include larger and different platforms types or ground facility nodes. Tactical Networks provide for the connection of a number of terminals, radios, sensors, and/or command & control systems so that voice, video or data can be quickly and easily transmitted and/or received by a number of users at different locations. Networks can be wireless, hard-wired or a combination of both. Networks can also be Internet in nature and provide a number of subscriber services. Protocols, signals, security, assurance and software compliances across the various nodes are integral parts of Tactical Networks as well as the actual Transmission and Receiver hardware. Their operational ranges are tactical in nature.  Tactical Radios and Terminals– Tactical Radios used to cover the majority of two way tactical communications systems, products and devices intended solely for voice communications. The current generations of these radios now have internal modems and are fully compatible with digital data communications. Even the older versions function as terminals in conjunction with external modems and network management. Tactical Terminals are communication systems, products and devices that can be handheld, hosted by specific platforms or in ground facilities, which then, in turn, have some internal communications distribution system for voice, video and/or data streamed in on tactical terminals.  Services/Support – Services primarily providing systems engineering, technical assistance, operations management, maintenance, training, sustainment, or scientific and engineering support of military communication systems, military communication systems operators or military communication procurement offices.  Multiple RF Functions – This category includes any instance when the record involves more than one RF electronics functional segmentation category, for example, F-35 ICNI where several communications and avionics functions reside in one set of host processors.  Other – This category is used when the record cannot be explicitly described by another functional segmentation category.  Research & Technology – Broad-based & general communications technology efforts, not associated with a specific product or system. For the US DoD, these programs and efforts fall into the RDT&E 6.2 (basic research) and 6.3 (applied research) categories.

The database allows for up to two contractors who might design, build and install network operational capabilities for a communication system (separate contracts for services/support for network operations are part of the Operations Management Services subsystem).  Subscriber Services – Some communications systems need special built-in gateways and access channels for subscriber services. Communication satellites with hundreds of relay or link communication channels for lease, sale or assignment would need on board Subscriber Service capabilities to manage channel operations and assignments. Otherwise they might become unregulated broadband transmission radios. The database allows for a contractor who might develop and deploy subscriber services for communications systems (separate contracts for services/support for subscriber services are part of the Operations Management Services subsystem).  Licensor – The portion of the system’s value related to providing raw technology. A Licensor’s role can be compared to a low-value-added integrator.  Sys Eng & Tech Assistance (SETA) – System Engineering and Technical Assistance (SETA).  Scientific & Engineering Support – Where not specifically stated as SETA, other scientific and engineering support services.

Missile Attributes

 Missile Type is an attribute field with six unique selections: o Tactical Missile – Unlike a cruise missile, a tactical missile follows a trajectory defined by its size, weight, and power. A tactical missile generally has aerodynamic features that allow it to adjust its flight path to the target. A tactical missile is usually designed for specific missions (e.g. anti-air, anti- armor, anti-ship, anti-radiation) and may attack ground, sea, and airborne platforms and personnel. o Cruise Missile – A cruise missile is a flying weapon that uses altitude, attitude, and direction controls to allow it to sustain a controlled flight path throughout its attack profile. They typically have self-contained navigation systems, and some may be reprogrammed to change targets. Cruise missiles may engage land or sea-based targets. o Ballistic Missile – A ballistic missile is typically powered during the ascent portion of its flight which often reaches sub-orbital altitudes. It then follows a ballistic trajectory for the last portion of its mission. Some ballistic missiles may contain power in the terminal portion of their flight to allow for evasive maneuvers and increased accuracy. o SAM – A Surface to Air Missile (SAM) is a weapon used to attack airborne targets from land, sea, or man-portable platforms. Its targets may include manned and unmanned aircraft and cruise missiles. o ABM – An Anti-Ballistic Missile is designed to combat ballistic missiles. It typically is designed to engage the attacking missile during the descent to the target. However, new programs are addressing attacks during the ascent and mid-course portions, as well. Because of the advance of guidance technologies, the operational line between SAMs and ABMs can be difficult to draw.

o Launcher - Method of launching missiles. This includes Command Launcher Units and re-loadable launch tubes. Disposable, one-time use launchers and aircraft missile racks are excluded. o Technology –This covers research and development efforts that have not focused on a specific application.

 Seeker Type is an attribute describing the type of terminal guidance technology used for detection and homing such as radar, infra-red or laser. This attribute has eleven unique selections. o IR - Infra-red homing seeker. IR homing seekers track and follow electromagnetic radiation emissions in the infra-red part of the spectrum. Often referred to as heat seekers. o RF (Active) - Active Radar homing Seeker. Uses a Radio Frequency transceiver in order to acquire and track a particular target. Seeker is autonomous. o RF (Semi-Active) - Semi-Active Radar homing seeker. Acquires and tracks Radio Frequency waves transmitted from an off-board source (normally the firing platform). The RF waves are reflected by the target and received by the semi-active seeker. o RF (Passive) - Passive Radar homing Seeker. Acquires and homes in on Radio Frequency waves transmitted by a third-party (target). Examples include radar waves transmitted by air-defense radar or electronic warfare jammers. o TV - Electro-Optic or TV seeker. Uses the visual spectrum to acquire and guide missile to the target. o SAL - Semi-Active Laser homing seeker. Acquires and homes in on laser radiation reflected from the target. Target is designated, or painted, by a laser designator. o RF (Active/Passive) - Dual Mode Seeker with both Active and Passive Radar. Missiles with this type of seeker have the ability to switch between two modes depending on the target and environment. o RF (Active)/IR - Dual Mode Seeker with Active Radar and Infra-Red. Missiles with this type of seeker have the ability to switch between two modes depending on the target and environment. o RF (Passive)/IR - Dual Mode Seeker with Passive Radar and Infra-Red. Missiles with this type of seeker have the ability to switch between two modes depending on the target and environment. o Tri-Mode - Missile with three different seeker types such as RF, IR and SAL. Missiles with this type of seeker have the ability to switch between three modes depending on the target and environment. o No Seeker - Guidance is provided without a seeker. Examples include, but are not limited to, INS/GPS guidance, Command Line of Site (CLOS), Beam riding and wire guidance.

Precision Guided Weapon Attributes

 PGW Type is an attribute field with five unique selections: o PGM. Precision Guided Munition – This is a munition that contains some form of self-contained guidance that operates throughout the flight path to increase accuracy. The PGM is distinguished from missiles by its lack of

powered flight throughout its flight. It may use initial boosters to provide separation from the launcher or increase range. Typically, this guidance comes in the form of enroute navigation (such as GPS/INS) and/or terminal guidance (such as laser/radar/optical). o DEW. Directed Energy Weapon – This is a beamed-energy weapon that does not contain a projectile. The force of the energy may run the gamut from non-lethal to lethal. Typically, these weapons use laser, microwave, or plasma technology to control, confuse, disable, or destroy targets. o CIWS. Close-In Weapon System – This is a weapon system that operates autonomously based on a set of criteria programmed into the system. It is mostly used for ship self-defense against missile attacks but has further application against swarming surface vehicles. This category would also include autonomous self-protection systems for land and air vehicles that attack the incoming threat, which may come in the form of a missile, rocket, or artillery round. o Launcher – Method of launching a precision guided munition or torpedo. This can be a gun, mortar or torpedo tube. o Mine – To qualify for inclusion in this category, a munition must occupy a passive state until it autonomously senses its target and provides some form of precision attack on that target. This excludes mines that are activated only by contact either by pressure or trip wire. Mines are usually land or sea-based systems, however, some countries claim to have aerial mines, as well. o Torpedo – This is a self-propelled undersea munition with onboard guidance systems (either command or autonomous). Its attack path may be programmed and autonomous or fully controlled by means of a tether to the host platform. Some torpedoes are capable of both tethered and non-tethered operations.

On ships, typically a Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) radar, nominally meeting the requirements of the International Maritime Organization (IMO), requiring a 9 GHz radar for safe navigation.  Radar Altimeter — Single-function, active fixed-aperture aircraft system operating in the radar portion of the electromagnetic frequency spectrum, providing information on the aircraft height above ground level (AGL).  Search/Track/Target – Multi-function ship and ground-based radars providing detection, tracking and identification for targets of interest. The track and targeting functions are supported within the same aperture as the search function, or are not separately identified. This designation is also used for systems, such as ship and ground-based AESAs, which may also provide EW and other functionality within the common aperture.  Sim/Training/Test – multi-role radio frequency (RF) and Electronic Warfare (EW) simulation devices used to generate a range of RF signatures for use in training and testing environments.  Surface Search – Ship-based radars that scan the surface out to the radar horizon for ships, periscopes, and coastal features.

o Broadband - Two or more contiguous bands not otherwise described below o Multi-Band - Two or more none-contiguous bands o Variable - Manufacturer sells same basic radar with different frequency options, undetermined by DS Forecast. o Unknown - Frequency band has not been determined by DS Forecast. o Other - Frequency range is not well described by any of the choices. o NA - Used when designation of an RF frequency band is inappropriate. o TBD - Frequency band has not been selected.

 LPI - Low Probability of Intercept (LPI) radars reflect characteristics that render a transmitted signal more difficult to detect by others, although LPI is difficult to define quantitatively. The transmit signal of a radar cannot be made undetectable, but many things can be done to minimize that range at which a “stealthy” signal can be detected and/or place very high demands on the ESM/RWR receiver doing the detecting. LPI techniques include minimizing the peak and average power of the transmitted signal, while spreading and encoding the signal across a broad frequency band, using highly sophisticated techniques. In the JDSF database, we do not attempt to apply quantitative thresholds supporting the classification of a radar as LPI. Rather, we classify a radar as LPI: (1) if the supplier asserts that the system is an LPI radar, or; (2) if knowledgeable sources make that assertion. The following are valid entries in this field. o LPI - The supplier has asserted that the system is an LPI radar, or a knowledgeable source has made that assertion, or the requirement suggests that LPI offers a competitive advantage. o NA - The radar is passive or consideration of LPI characteristics is inappropriate, e.g. active or passive EW system. o Non-LPI - There is no basis on which to assert that the radar is LPI and/or the requirement does not suggest that LPI offers a competitive advantage. o TBD - The system has not been identified and/or an LPI requirement is not determinable.

 Radar Types. Many JDSF customers are interested in how the radar market is separated based on the “type” of radar, where type is determined by the dominant architectural feature, rather than the operating frequency or functional segment. We have not found a taxonomy that proposes to classify radar equipment using mutually exclusive “types” and we believe there is an inevitable overlap of different “types” in any modern radar system. Nonetheless, we allow the following list of primary “types”, recognizing that this list is NOT mutually exclusive. o Phased Array - Phased Arrays use individual phase shifters for each element in a 2-dimensional array of antenna elements, creating a more precise and rapidly controlled transmitted signal. Typically stationary or “staring”, phased array radar forms a single beam that can be rapidly repositioned through the phase-shifter architecture. PESA and AESA radars are advanced versions of a phased array that are able to form multiple simultaneous beams.

o AESA - Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) uses an array populated by many hundreds of individual Transmit/Receive (T/R) modules located at the face of the antenna. AESA architectures provide for multiple simultaneous multi-function beams with additional benefits of durability and graceful degradation as individual T/R modules fail. It is the “state of the art” as of 2014. o PESA - Passive Electronically Scanned Array (PESA) is a technological precursor of the AESA, employing a high power transmitter to feed the T/R modules rather than having all power generated within the T/R module. PESA is less efficient than AESA, but is capable of producing far more transmitted power. o Bi-Static - Bi-static radar has the receiver geographically distant from the transmitter. Examples are missile seekers that employ semi-active homing, e.g. with the target illuminator on the ship and a receiver in the missile seeker. o Multi-Static - Multi-Static radars have multiple transmitters and/or receivers that are spatially dispersed. Information is typically fused at a central facility. o SAR - Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) creates an artificially large antenna derived from the velocity of the radar platform. o ISAR - Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) creates a 2-dimensional image of the target derived from the motions of the target, supporting non- cooperative target classification, e.g., distinguishing a naval combatant from a commercial tanker. o Passive - Passive radars collect echoes off targets from ambient, non- coordinated active sources such as TV and radio transmitters. o Other (Solid State) - This category includes radars that transmit at relatively low power, with the radar transmitter consisting entirely of silicon and gallium arsenide transistor technology, in parallel and series, to generate modest power with high reliability. o Other - This category covers the majority of radar systems, and all system architectures not encompassed by the definitions describing the more specialized architectures in the paragraphs above. These radars use tube- based technology to generate the transmitted signal and are typically rotating/mechanically scanning, single beam architectures.

Spacecraft Attributes

 Orbit Path is an attribute field with eight unique selections: o LEO – Low Earth Orbit. Platforms that orbit between 80 km and 2000 km. o MEO – Medium Earth Orbit. Platform orbits lie between 2000 km to 35,786 km, but most commonly at 20,200 km or 20,650, with an orbital period of 12 hours). Note that the Van Allen Belts of high energy protons lie within the MEO orbital range bands. o GEO – Geosynchronous Orbits. Platform orbits with a revolution of exactly one day at an altitude of 35,786 km. Any orbit, which has a period equal to the Earth’s rotational period. The orbit’s eccentricity and inclination may not necessarily be zero. When the orbit is circular and the rotational period has zero inclination, the platform is considered to also be “geostationary”. o HEO - High Earth Orbits/Highly Elliptical Orbits. A High Earth Orbit is any orbit above geosynchronous (above 35,786 km). A Highly Elliptical Orbit is an orbit of low perigee (about 1000 km) and a high apogee over 35,786 km). These orbits have an inclination between 50 and 70 degrees. Highly elliptical orbits are mainly perturbed by the Earth’s oblateness and by gravitational attraction of the Sun and Moon. HEOs are popular orbits for Earth magentospheric measurements and astronomical observatories. o LPO - Lagrangian Point Orbits. A location in space around a rotating two- body system (such as the Earth-Moon or Earth-Sun) where the pulls of the gravitating bodies combine to form a point at which a third body of negligible mass would be stationary relative to the two bodies. There are five Lagrangian points in all. L1, L2 and L3 are unstable, however growing numbers of spacecraft are being placed in halo orbits around the L1 and L2 points; station-keeping, in the form of regular thruster firings, are needed to maintain these orbits. o Polar – A special case of a Low Earth Orbit. Platform (satellite) that passes all latitudes at the same local solar time (sun synchronous) each day [through a combination of proper altitude and inclination]. Orbits lie within 20 degrees of a 90 degree inclination from the equator. To maintain this synchronicity, the orbital plane must rotate about 1 degree per day. This also includes Polar

Non Synchronous orbits whereby a platform maintains a polar orbit that does synchronize latitude passes with solar time. o Planetary – Platforms launched for the purpose of exploring the solar system, asteroids, planets, or beyond the solar system. o No Space Position. Used for launch vehicles and/or spacecraft that do not orbit. Also used for records that are for services or R&D not related to a specific spacecraft.

Sonar Attributes

 Mode is an attribute field with four unique selections: Active, Passive, Dual-Mode, and Measurement. This field describes the operating mode of the sonar, where appropriate. Dual-Mode means that the sonar can operate both passively and actively.  Frequency is an attribute field with six unique selections that reflect a system’s general operating range within the underwater acoustic frequency band. DS Forecast uses the following frequency band ranges: Band Frequency Range

Very Low <1KHZ

Low 1-3KHZ

Medium 3-14KHZ

High 14-100KHZ

Very High >100KHZ

Multi-band Operates in more than one band

 Mounting is an attribute field with nine unique selections. This attribute specifies where the sonar is mounted. o Bow arrays are typically the largest and most capable hull mounted sonars found on surface ships. Also found on submarines but here their role as most capable organic sensor is increasingly being taken over by flank arrays. o Dipping arrays are transmit/receive arrays lowered to depth on a cable from a host platform while stopped. Typically employed by helicopters for ASW missions, although they can be deployed from other platform types. o Distributed arrays are remotely monitored, and are either fixed or tethered to the ocean bottom, or are suspended/float over a large ocean area. o Flank arrays are typically installed in panels on the sides of modern submarines as their main hull-mounted acoustic sensor since it usually offers enhanced performance over bow arrays (although still short of a towed array

system). Now common on modern submarines and available for retrofit on older boats. o Hull arrays are ship or submarine arrays other than bow or flank arrays, including fixed and retractable keel-mounted units. o Multi-array means that the system encompasses 2 or more mountings, typically involving a mix of hull and towed sensors, e.g. a towed array integrated with a flank array. o Sail arrays are mounted on the sail/fin of a submarine. o Sonobuoys are dropped from aircraft or ships and communicate to the monitoring platform via a wireless link. o Towed arrays are trailed behind the ship or submarine towing platform and are typically composed of many hundreds of meters of tow followed by an array of hydrophones. Typically passive and low frequencies, however some systems with an integrated active transmit capability are noted. o Variable Depth Sonars (VDS) are sonar arrays deployed from enclosures/towed bodies tethered to the towing platform that are capable of descending to an operator determined depth to operate “below the layer”. VDS can be deployed by a variety of platforms while under way, typical uses include low frequency active and passive systems for ASW and high frequency active systems for mine detection and from helicopters for both missions. o Towed/VDS feature an integrated combination of Towed and Variable Depth Arrays where each array has a specific function, i.e.: one active transmit array and one passive receive array. Typically the VDS towed body is used for the active portion.

 Motion Cueing is an attribute field with five unique selections that describes whether or not the simulator moves to replicate the platform operational experience. o Fixed Base – A training device or simulator that is stationary. This could be a simulator that does not incorporate movement or smaller device such as a desk top trainer. o Motion Platform – A simulator that is mounted on a moving platform with any number of degrees of freedom (typically 6). o NA – This category is used when the simulator does not have a base or the training device is wearable. Example: Dismounted Soldier Training System (no base) or Multiple Integrated Laser Engagement Simulation or MILES (no base, wearable). o Unknown – method of motion cueing is unknown or cannot be forecast.
