Description

In order to provide EW support and full spectrum cyber activities in support of Multi Domain Operations at the Operational and Tactical levels, the United States Army will require advanced early warning capabilities, new tools to provide precision targeting and collection from increased stand off ranges, and EW/Cyber tools to defeat A2/AD efforts launched by adversaries. EW/Cyber tools must be in place during the competition phase to provide enduring persistent access to adversary military communications and ISR infrastructure as well as insight to the "neutral" networks and infrastructure utilized by both adversary and US/Allied forces in foreign areas around the world. These EW/Cyber tools must be small and ubiquitous, capable of being body worn, vehicle mounted, or placed on various sizes of drones or other platforms. These devices must be produced in several form factors to accommodate for local environment and mission profiles. In response to such requirements, MarkPoint has created the CEMA Tactical Awareness Support Kit, or C-TASK for short. C-TASK's main "engine" is a software load that can passively record cellular, bluetooth, and WiFi activity in its proximity. Proximity is a feature and function of the software load, antennas, and low noise amplifiers (LNA) being utilized. C-TASK also includes a Software Defined Radio (SDR) and hardware chassis, in specially configured variants, based on the mission at hand. As a ground sensor (either body worn or vehicle mounted) the MarkPoint Echo Zero package (the main feature of C-TASK) is effective at longer ranges than current items in Army inventory. Once airborne on a tethered UAS, the stand off distance and effective detection range dramatically increases. This is achieved by utilizing a very small form factor (a Latte Panda), MarkPoint Echo Zero passive survey software load, and some graphene antennae. With this very small package, MarkPoint has demonstrated the ability to conduct EW support and long ranges. The C-TASK was featured at the most recent Cyber Quest 2019 held at Fort Gordon, GA.
