1. ANGELFIRE… PROVEN PERFORMANCE! Possible Architectures And External Interface Specifications Presented to Program Office 16 SEP 04 (Team 3)

2. ANGELFIRE… PROVEN PERFORMANCE! Mission Needs Statement Needs –Sea-based precision strike cell (FPSC) –Communication between FPSC and all NATO air assets –Multi-path communication network –Integration with MASSTIC –Damage assessment capability

3. ANGELFIRE… PROVEN PERFORMANCE! Architecture One

4. ANGELFIRE… PROVEN PERFORMANCE! Architecture One Advantages and Disadvantages Advantages –Fits existing ATO structure –Ample manning to meet requirements –Centralized functionality – “it’s all here” Disadvantages –Large footprint: extensive manning, square footage, administrative requirements –Centralized functionality does not enhance network-centric warfare
