FORT WAYNE, Ind., Nov. 28, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Raytheon
Company's (NYSE: RTN) Cyber and Electromagnetic Battle Management
tool is the only electronic warfare planning and management tool to
demonstrate interoperability with not only third-party software,
but an entire system with completely different architecture.
A recent demonstration integrated CEMBM into Raptor-X, an
electronic warfare asset management tool used by the Marine Corps,
building a foundation for information sharing across the joint
battlespace. CEMBM extends cyber and electromagnetic spectrum
awareness capabilities into Raytheon's Electronic Warfare Program
Management Tool, a U.S. Army program of record since 2014.
"We've achieved an interoperability breakthrough with CEMBM,"
said Frank Pietryka, director,
Airborne Information Operations, at Raytheon Space and Airborne
Systems. "This type of community access to EWPMT-managed data means
we can reach across services and produce a shared operating
picture."
CEMBM can quickly provide legacy systems with a common
interface, reducing end-user training and support. Raptor-X-managed
sensor data can be used with EWPMT situational awareness and
geospatial information management capabilities.
CEMBM's open architecture allows for the rapid deployment of new
EW and cyber techniques to manage temporal, geospatial and
data-driven events. It can employ streaming data to trigger
response, execute jobs, enhance resources and manage
data.
"CEMBM offers a near-real-time ability to respond to threats
automatically or with a person on the loop," said Pietryka. "This
ability to choose how to respond accommodates complexity in planned
execution for deliberate and dynamic targets during the
mission."
CEMBM, already at Technology Readiness Level-7, is building on
its 2016 participation in military exercises as it is further
developed for future exercises, a risk-reduction and technology
maturation effort for EWPMT and a variety of customer applications.
Raytheon will add new capabilities drawn from industry, including
small businesses, academia and government research laboratories in
future iterations.
