MaritiMe reConnaiSSanCe anD SurveillanCe – SeCtor report 2011recent years have seen a marked shift in the character of the MpA market. While some high-end operators maintain a requirement for large, long-endurance anti-submarine warfare/anti-surface warfare (ASW/ASuW) platforms capable of covering vast expanses – such as the p-8A poseidon – the real growth has been in a new generation of smaller, more affordable coastal surveillance aircraft optimised for maritime domain awareness in the littoral.

These are typically based on commercial or utility transport airframes (notably twin turboprops in the mould of the Airbus Military Cn-235 and C-295, the Alenia Aeronautica/eADS ATr 72 and Bombardier’s Dash 8 series), adapted business jets (such as the Dassault Falcon 50) or, at the lower end, light twins in the style of the Beechcraft King Air.

However, industry insiders have witnessed a rekindling of interest in ASW mission-equipped MpAs in recent years.

Patricia romeyro Mascarenhas, project officer, European Union Satellite Centre (EUSC)

This reflects the procurement of modern, increasingly quiet submarinesintheMediterraneanandAsia-Pacificregionsand has led operators to seek an airborne ASW capability to deliver realistic tactical training for their own submariners and safeguard transit routes. This has in turn seen types such as the ATr 72, Dash 8 and Cn-235 styled as adaptable and affordable sub-hunters.

A new genre of flexible, lightweight MpA missions systems – based on commercial off-the-shelf (CoTS) software, sensors, computers and displays – are on offer from european system houses to meet the need for robust performance at an acceptable price. At the upper end, they may incorporate a very respectable ASW and/or ASuW capability. At a minimum, theywillbeoutfittedwithradar,electro-optical/infrared(EO/IR)sensors,anAutomaticIdentificationSystem(AIS)receiverand communications link, integrated within a tactical missions system,toenableeffectivesurveillance,identification,picturecompilation, reporting and data recording…..

workSHoP A 9:00-11:30Non-Traditional ISr for the Maritime Environment Many assets now utilised by the military offer a capability beyond their original intent, meaning that whilst there is a changing emphasis from data collection to data distribution, such considerations need to place the maritime ISr need within a wider, joint context. The introduction of inherent ISr capability on most new platforms (for example, the Joint Strike Fighter) will broaden the number of assets that can contribute to the domain awareness picture, challenging the traditional structures in provision and use of intelligence.

Given that anyone with a digital camera and an internet connection on a surface vehicle is potentially an intelligence contributor, the maritime information paradigm could be about to shift.

this workshop will assess the degree to which non-traditional iSr sources are likely to develop for maritime reconnaissance in the immediate future, and to what extent these assets need to be addressed in a similar manner to those operating in the land environment.

Led By: Air Commodore Garry Porter, former assistant director transformation, Joint Air Power Competence Centreair Commodore Garfield porter joined the raF in 1978. a navigator, he has served as a crew captain, Flight Commander and Squadron Commander on the raF’s nimrod Maritime patrol aircraft amassing some 5500 flying hours. He was awarded the Queens commendation for valuable Service in the air for the Search and recue operation following the piper alpha oil rig disaster.

workSHoP B 12:00-14:30Improving Interoperability Between MDA Information Producers, Consumers, and Everything in BetweenIt is widely accepted that to achieve global Maritime Domain Awareness, information sharing is required, or at least, information sharing has the potential to improve global MDA. Also, the variety and quantity of MDA information that is being produced is continually increasing. legacy systems cannot, or will not be able to keep up with the immense amounts of information. The aim of this workshop would be to develop solutions to address the problem of interoperability between MDA systems, which will facilitate information sharing.

Traditionally, this problem consisted mainly of developing common messaging standards and networking technologies, but modern systems contain massive amounts of information, a large variety of information, and advanced analysis products based on this information. It is apparent that a smarter way of sharing information between MDA systems is required.

this workshop will deliver a technical insight into the work being done by nurC, and provide the opportunity for attendees to not only learn from nato’s work but provide an input into the technology that will ultimately be used by nato allies world-wide.Led By: Dr Steven Horne, Maritime situational awareness, NATo UNDErwATEr rESEArCH CENTrE

workSHoP C 15:00-17:00Challenges of I4Sr in the Asia Pacific region and MDAThemaritimedynamicsoftheAsiaPacificregion are complex and require careful analysis. The disputed areas in the South China Sea have added to the tensions of the littoral countries who feel threatened by an imposing China. The modernisation of the plA-n has been assessed as a destabilising factor in regional security architecture. The proliferation concerns have been compounded with the recent aggressive behaviour of north Korea which allegedly sank a South Korean ship roKS Cheonan on 26th March 2010. post 9/11 and Mumbai terror attacks, maritime nations are acutely aware of the danger from asymmetric threats, which pose a serious challenge to maritime security agencies in thwarting attacks on iconic symbols, property and innocent citizens. What is more, while a lot of attention is being paid to the acts of piracy now off Somalia, safety of navigation in the Malacca Straits was a serious issue until the countries in the region came together to put an end to this menace .The need of the hour is to build a robust ISr architecture by collaborative efforts and by harnessing the strengths of the regional players which should result in enhancedlevelsofconfidenceinsafeandsecure seas.this workshop will address the following challenges facing the asia-pacific region in light of developments over the past 5 years:1. MaritimeDynamicsintheAsiaPacific 2. Growth of navies in the region and impact on ISr 3. regional collaborative efforts and their efficacy 4. Issues of South China Sea and impact on MSA 5. Growth of navies and Coast Guards of China and India and impact on regional security. 6. Examinationofspecificmajoracquisition plans of major navies in the region and their impact 7. examination of UnCloS by stake holders in the region including extra regional players. 8. Anti piracy measures in the region 9. Technological issues of importance that may tilt the balance in favour of those who posses them
