Abstract
Navy combat systems are currently ship class dependent and are acquired as stovepipes. There exist economic consequences to this approach considering various components on the combat system types share commonality. This part of the research will address cross-domain applicability of the antisubmarine warfare (ASW) combat system. This research will include the product line potential for ASW systems to include air, surface, and subsurface applications—light airborne multipurpose system (LAMPS) MK III (SH-60 Helicopters), AN/BYG-1 (Virginia class), SQQ-89 (FFG 7, DDG 51, and CG 47 class). Commonality is assessed for ASW-capable systems to determine the product line approach suitable for the reduction of cost, increase in mission effectiveness, and generation of rapidly deployable combat systems. The product line investigation encompasses air, surface, and subsurface systems for applicability across the domain to establish variations points based on referenced architecture. Product line models provide analysis of the economic consequences of alternative system acquisition approaches. Constructive Product Line Investment Models (COPLIMO) are utilized, with a three-pronged strategy, for system and software to explore numerous architectural possibilities for the derived combat systems. High return on investment were yielded for an adapted ASW system for “most likely” scenarios for both system and software.
