WASHINGTON — Lockheed Martin will move onto the second phase of building out a prototype meant to provide formations larger than the brigade level with longer-range electronic warfare (EW) systems and situational awareness capabilities, beating out competitor General Dynamics Missions Systems (GDMS.) 

Under the contract, announced Tuesday by the Army, Lockheed will take its Terrestrial Layer System-Echelons Above Brigade (TLS-EAB) prototype from “design and lab-based demonstrations to a tangible form factor able to be tested in a relevant environment,” Lt. Col. Kris Haley, product manager for terrestrial spectrum warfare said. The award is worth up to $36.7 million for a 21-month period of performance. 

“The TLS-EAB is an extended-range, terrestrial sensing, collection, and electronic attack system providing integrated [signals intelligence], EW and cyber capabilities for situational awareness, situational understanding, Intelligence & Warning, command post survivability, critical asset protection operations, and supports the delivery of lethal and non-lethal effects in a holistic, synchronized manner for Multi-Domain Operations (MDO),” according to the announcement. Translation: It’s meant to better let commanders know the various threats they’re facing at a greater distance.

Lockheed will build the prototype TLS-EAB system at its facility in Syracuse, NY, “in the coming months,” according to a company press release. During the first phase of TLS-EAB development, both Lockheed and GDMS conducted “soldier touch points” to take feedback and incorporate it into their design phase. 

“Moving into this next phase, we are going to continue to embrace Soldier Touch Points to drive the design while leveraging a proven DevSecOps pipeline and an open architecture that will enable a highly interoperable, configurable 21st Century Security…

Lockheed scores US Army contract for major electronic warfare, intel and cyber platform


WASHINGTON — Lockheed Martin has won a second-round contract worth $9.6 million to continue work on the U.S. Army’s first integrated electronic warfare, signals intelligence and cyber platform, the service announced Monday.

The other transaction authority agreement for phase two on the Terrestrial Layer System-Brigade Combat Team, or TLS-BCT, follows a 16-month prototyping period that involved Lockheed and Boeing subsidiary Digital Receiver Technology. During those months, each company was charged with developing prototypes and working with soldiers, after which point the Army would pick one solution to move forward.

TLS-BCT will be mounted on a Stryker vehicle, and officials have said it will be critical to modernizing the force to defeat modern and sophisticated threats on the battlefield.

“When fielded, TLS will be assigned to the Multi-functional Platoon and the EW Platoon organic to the Military Intelligence (MI) Company (MICO) in the BCTs. TLS will provide the warfighter at multiple echelons critical situational awareness of the enemy through detection, identification, location, exploitation, and disruption of enemy signals of interest,” said Ken Strayer, the project manager for electronic warfare and cyber within Program Executive Office Intelligence, Electronic Warfare and Sensors.

In the most recent budget request, the Army asked for $39.7 million for the program from research and development funds. The first unit is to receive the system in fiscal 2022.

Lockheed’s award will provide prototypes for manufacturing proof of concept.
