Sea Shield MissionSea Shield Mission
• Assure access and sustainability
throughout the battle space
• Project robust defense
• Provide a sea-based layer for Homeland

Future SUW WarfightingFuture SUW Warfighting
• Dispersed force of smaller networked platforms with
distributed, unmanned sensors
• Directed-energy weapons, to provide protection both
at sea and pierside.
• 5 Inch Force Protection Projectile to increase range
and lethality
• CIWS 1B to provide inner layer defense against
small boats
• Stabilized 25mm Gun to provide more accuracy and
range

• Mine identification and neutralization
• Neutralize submarine threats to operations in the littorals
• Provide self-defense against sub-surface threat weapons
• ‘Hold at Risk’ submarine threat throughout the theater

TF ASW Tasking
• CNO directed N6/N7 to conduct a focused ASW study to examine technology opportunities.
• Task Force ASW will provide options to the CNO for research and development, science and technology, CONOPS and training.
Goal – Technologies and CONOPS to fundamentally change ASW

Future ASW WarfightingFuture ASW Warfighting
Hold at Risk – Achieve mission denial against adversary
submarines and destroy enemy submarines at times and places of our choosing
Protected Passage – Assure access with safe transits in the face of
submarine threats
Maritime Shield– Establish and protect Sea Bases from
submarine penetration and defeat submarine attacks

Anti-Submarine Warfare Supremacy: Render an opposing submarine force incapable of interfering with mission accomplishment:
detect submarines anywhere,
engage submarines rapidly, and
neutralize submarine weapons.

TakeawaysTakeaways
• Sea Shield– Concept is core to Joint Warfighting – Most critical and most challenged in the littoral
environment– ASW, MIW, SUW
• ASW– Move from mass force to mass effects
• SUW– Early detection and a layered defense is key– Stabilized 25mm fills capability gap until CIWS 1B is fully
fielded

Littoral Warfare IssuesLittoral Warfare Issues
• Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW)– Neutralize submarine threats to operations in the littorals– Provide self-defense against sub-surface threat weapons– ‘Hold at Risk’ submarine threat throughout the theater
• Surface Warfare (SUW)– Over the Horizon (OTH) surface threats– Swarming Small Boat Threats– Wide Area MIO– Protection of MIW / EXW / CLF/ MPF-F Forces Against Surface
Threats
• Mine Warfare (MIW)– Counter Mines From Deep to Shallow Water– Counter Minefields, Obstacles and Barriers from VSW to the Beach

Team B Current CONOPS Thoughts
“We can’t do ‘effects based ASW’- must mass force and carve out an area for Battle Force
• Time-constrained large area search problem• CPF: 130 false contacts per day*
*Consistent with Falklands ConflictVery sensor, weapon and numbers of platforms limited”
TF ASW Team A ConceptsBackground / Context
Team A Technology panel tasking - identify technology innovations so that we can mass effects not forces provide quantum improvements in ASW
capabilities seek solutions:
without reliance on force on force maximum compression of the ASW
OODA loop– highly responsive detect to engage
