DULLES, Va., May 6, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- The U.S. Navy has
successfully tested Raytheon's advanced intelligence, surveillance
and reconnaissance (ISR) technologies aboard the experimental
ship known as the M80 Stiletto, while the vessel was underway. The
test took place during operations at Joint Expeditionary Base
Little Creek-Fort Story, Virginia.
The combined technology was created by combining two, proven
Raytheon (NYSE: RTN) technologies: the Persistent Surveillance
System Cross Domain Solution (PSS CDS) and Intersect™
Sentry. The successful test was conducted as part of the Stiletto
Maritime Technology Demonstration Program.
PSS CDS receives critical data from multiple sensors and offers
two-way sharing of information and commands across both classified
and unclassified domains. Intersect™ Sentry is an
automation and analysis tool that creates alerts from a variety of
intelligence, sensor and reconnaissance data streams according to
parameters defined by the user. Both systems have been successfully
demonstrated in support of joint and coalition maritime
operations.
"Raytheon has created two capabilities that are easily
reconfigured for deployment on multiple missions," said
Bob Dehnert, Command, Control and
Awareness director for Raytheon Intelligence, Information and
Services. "They give warfighters proven, automated information
sharing and analysis support for surveillance missions in any
domain."
During the Navy demonstration, Intersect™ Sentry
automatically analyzed data streams and sent alerts to the PSS CDS
for simultaneous display across various networks, creating a common
operating picture for different users operating at multiple
classification levels.
The recent capability demonstration, designated CD 15-2, was one
of a series sponsored by the Assistant Secretary of Defense for
Research & Engineering. The Stiletto Maritime Demonstration
Program and the Stiletto vessel are operated by the U.S. Navy,
Naval Surface Warfare Center, Carderock Division.
