Defense Science Board Recommendations THE BIG THREE ISSUES: • Supersonic Anti-Ship Targets • Target Control • Full Scale Aerial Target STATUS (DOT&E Perspective) 5

Supersonic Anti-Ship Targets DSB Recommendation 1. Produce the GQM-163 A as the principal sea-skimming target. 2. Continue attempts at foreign acquisition of MA-31 for supersonic high-dive threat. Develop a backup strategy for domestic development and production of a high diver target. 3. Immediately initiate a limited production of a Threat-D surrogate. A ”skunk works” approach is recommended. STATUS 1. In Production 2. Foreign Material Acquisitions are typically problematic. • FY 06 DOTE/Navy High Diver Target Study. 3. Threat D is currently under concept exploration. • Separation Event • Acceleration/Velocity Profile A “skunk works” approach is recommended: • DOT&E Focus for FY 06/07. 6

Target Control DSB Recommendation Do. D Test Resource Management Center (DTRMC), working with the Services, should develop and ensure support of a plan for transition to a common target control system. • Service “Buy-In” is critical • Transition can be gradual • Goal: “shoot any target on any range” Status • DTRMC accepted tasking. • FY 05/06 DOT&E/Tri-Service Mobile Ground Target initiatives may be provide a structure for long term solution. • Based upon an open systems architecture, standard message formats and protocols. • Control system study identified TTCS hardware as host platform Hardware Software • PC Based • Portable • Open Architecture • Mathlab/Simulink • TVARTS • Standard Formats & Protocols 7

Full Scale Aerial Target DSB Recommendations 1. Produce a drone using an existing aircraft platform (F-16 or foreign F-4) to satisfy mid-term needs. 2. Try to eliminate the man-rating requirement (ground transportable) 3. Begin concept demonstration of new advanced aerial target (unmanned to satisfy long-term needs. Is Business as Usual Acceptable? Old Retired Military Aircraft F-16 • Supersonic • Manned • 70’s Vintage BAE/Scaled • New Design • Supersonic TMI Cost Study • Based on JSF • Supersonic • $2. 7 M + engine • <<$100 M NRE Eclipse Aviation • $1. 4 M Unit Cost • Subsonic • Manned Aviation Technology • $2. 8 M Unit Cost • High Subsonic • Manned Scaled Composites • $20/30 M NRE • Unique Mission • Subsonic and Supersonic What are the requirements? 8

TMI Program FY 06 Investments Developmental (Focused on Multi-Service Issues) – – Surface Target Vector Scoring Subscale Target, Common Control, Alternative Launch Improvised Explosive Devise Test Target Full Scale Aerial Target (? ) Studies and Analysis Mobile Ground Targets Reactive Coatings Air Force Academy Studies Rotary Wing Target Requirements Target Control Bandwidth Study Satellite Emulation Target Full Scale Target Engines Information Operations Targets Subscale Launch Capability Quick Reaction Studies GQM-163 Air Launched Study Alternative Low Cost Materials FY 07 Focus Areas – DSB Recommendations – Target Issues – Technology Insertions (Scoring, Control Systems, Materials, etc) 10

Summary Significant improvements over the past year – – GQM-163 is in production BQM-167 is in production AST Agreement Standup of DTRMC Defense Science Board – Aerial Target Recommendations to AT&L OSD Target Investments – DTRMC/CTEIP – DOT&E/TMI DOT&E Target Concerns – Interoperability – Target Threat Realism – Presentation Cost (Unit cost, launch cost 11
