Inc 1 was about consolidating
capability…
 Merged delivery of ISR&T tools and integrated
priority SIGINT & IMINT capabilities
 Delivered an 80% solution / Milestone C in 2
years from program reset
 More than 29 Fleet Installations 2009 – 2014
… and taking the first steps towards a
hosted environment
 Phased migration to CANES (Inc 1 Block 2)
 Get out of the hardware business and ultimately
focus on the ISR&T support tools
While Inc 1 continues to meet C/S/P, its lack
of “bottom-up” design resulted …

Hard to use …
Challenging to train …
Difficult to maintain, and …
Simply not a satisfying experience for the sailor!
3 racks, peripherals, and up to 30 workstations procured by DCGS-N
DCGS-N Inc 2 will fundamentally change this paradigm to resolve current readiness
challenges and provide a system that is easier to operate, train, and maintain
