Note
This program, BA 7, PE 1203906F, project 67A051, ITW/AA C2 Integration of C2BMC Feeds, is a new start.
A. Mission Description and Budget Item Justification
This program element supports development activities for the NORAD Cheyenne Mountain Complex - Integrated Tactical Warning Attack Assessment (NCMC-ITW/
AA) system that provides timely, unambiguous, and continuous warning and attack assessment of air, missile and space threats to North America, and geographical
theaters. This system integrates and correlates missile launch and air surveillance information from certified sources to assess the nature of an enemy launch/attack
and issue warnings to the President of the United States, Canadian (national leadership), United States Secretary of Defense, National military Command center and
war-fighting Combatant Commanders (C2). NCMC-ITW/AA and Legacy Space C2 systems provide NORAD/NORTHCOM, USSTRATCOM and SPACECOM command
structures with the information management, decision aids and connectivity required to monitor, assess, plan, and execute assigned strategic, space operations, and
missile defense missions. It provides Nuclear C2 and detonation detection.
The Combatant Commanders Integrated Command and Control System (CCIC2S) is a unique, integrated C2 "system of systems”, providing data communication
between external sensors and end users; mission processing for air and missile warning mission and system operations functions. The system supports national
strategic objectives with Integrated Tactical Warning/Attack Assessment (ITW/AA) and provides missile and air warning, cueing and engagement information to theater
combatant commanders. The system consists of terrestrial and space-based sensor outputs, C2 nodes, and communications and dissemination links, connecting the
US and Canadian defense information networks.
This program is in Budget Activity 7, Operational System Development because this budget activity includes development efforts to upgrade systems that have been
fielded or have received approval for full rate production and anticipate production funding in the current or subsequent fiscal year.
