The Maritime Mobile Force Protection (MMFP) project provided an on- water demonstration of the feasibility of providing US Coast Guard (USCG) escort vessels a real-time, user directed tactical command and control (C2) capability for the execution of mission escort duties and coordination with escorted units. The project focused on developing a mobile (on-the-water) C2 capability for USCG escort vessel Patrol Commanders during the conduct of escort missions of high value unit (HVU) vessels between port/harbor and open waters. The scope of the project consisted of integrating new off board (shore mounted) above water sensors with current on board sensors, adding organic underwater sensors, and integrating sensor collection and distribution networks with a vessel mounted Console Display. System design provided control of radars and cameras for detection of surface contacts, and acoustic sensors for detection of underwater objects. System software allowed ingestion of AIS (Automatic Identification System) and GPS data, and provided a contact correlation capability for discrimination among detected objects/contacts.
