UNDERLYING CONCEPTS
1.1 BACKGROUND
The reprioritized roles and missions to be performed by the Navy and by the Submarine
Force, as outlined in the Secretary of the Navy’s white papers “From the Sea” and
“Forward From The Sea,” require greater information throughput than is presently available within existing submarine communication shore and shipboard systems. The new communication suites must support strategic communications including multiple pathways capable of performing command and control (C 2 ) functional requirements throughout a nuclear conflict. They must also permit seamless interoperability and access to the common tactical picture found within the Battle Group Joint Maritime Command Information System
(JMCIS), reception of large data file transfers for Tomahawk strike planning, and reception and transmission of video, voice, facsimile, and imagery while operating with combined and joint forces in the littoral regions. Submarine and Navy Command, Control,
Communications, Computers and Intelligence (C 4 I) must be interoperable with the Global
Command and Control System (GCCS) being deployed by the Department of Defense
(DOD) and the DISA. JMCIS will be the Navy’s implementation of GCCS and is required on-board all submarines.
1.2 PURPOSE
The SCMP provides a coordinated basis for planning, programming, and budgeting. The
SCMP is the primary and authoritative document for planning, organizing and controlling the end products of the Navy’s submarine-related communication programs. This summary is intended to consolidate planning and improve total communications performance for all classes of attack (SSN) and ballistic missile (SSBN) submarines by organizing and controlling program objectives across the various lines of authority and responsibility. The SCMP is also intended to act as the focal point through which advances in communication systems and combat control systems are coordinated. This SCMP is an update of the plan approved in May 1994 to reflect programmatic changes and to coordinate improvements in the submarine communications suite with ongoing improvements in the submarine combat control systems (CCS).
