## What project 4036 buys

The Theater Mission Planning Center (TMPC) consists of Commercial and Government Off-The-Shelf (COTS/GOTS) software and COTS hardware. TMPC is the mission planning segment of the Tomahawk Weapon System (TWS) that provides subsystems for the precision targeting, route planning, mission distribution, and strike management of Tomahawk cruise missile missions from sites located ashore and afloat. TMPC optimizes all aspects of the Tomahawk missile mission to successfully engage a target. TMPC provides mission planning at the theater and operational levels and is designed for high-rate mission planning production responsive to national strategic, operational, and tactical requirements. TMPC develops and distributes missions; provides command information services for all variants of the Tomahawk missile; provides strike planning, execution, coordination, control and reporting, and provides Maritime Component Commanders (MCC) the capability to plan or modify conventional TWS missions. TMPC is employed in major joint combat operations and Overseas Contingency Operations. TMPC is employed in major joint combat operations and Overseas Contingency Operations. TMPC has evolved into four scalable configurations deployed at 181 sites: Cruise Missile Support Activities (CMSAs) (3), Tomahawk Strike Mission Planning Cells (TSMPCs) (3), Carrier Strike Groups (CSGs) (21 Total: 11 CVNs and 10 Shore Sites), and Firing Units (FRUs) (135- 85 Surface / 50 Subsurface). Additionally, TMPC is installed in Labs (6) and Training Classrooms (13) that contain various combinations of the four configurations. TMPC software development activities support new capabilities for the Tomahawk Weapon System, decrease mission planning time, increase the quality and accuracy of each mission, and reduce complexity. The software development activities will also include networking equipment to integrate with the naval data exchange for unified strike planning and execution system to provide all source multi-intelligence data at multiple levels of security to strike mission planners. The TMPC will incorporate cross domain solution capabilities to include data exchange with the Next Generation Mission Planning System. TMPC was previously referred to as Tomahawk Command and Control System (TC2S).

**R-3 lines of work:** Product Development; Support; Test and Evaluation; Management Services.

### Tactical Tomahawk Weapons Control System (TTWCS)

**FY2027 planned work.** FY 2027 plans include the planning, design/development, and validation of new advanced computing hardware components with increased capacity/throughput, security measures, integrated combat systems prototypes, and software architecture that increases performance for fielded systems and is aligned/interoperable with future networking capabilities. Enhance hardware and software products through security engineering efforts, prototype hardware virtual twins, hardware surrogates/alternatives, and prove out technology insertion methods. TTWCS program will continue evaluation of fielded systems for cyber threats, create impact assessments and mitigation plans, and develop suitable alternatives/roadmaps to strengthen maturity, reliability, and resilience. TTWCS will evaluate and address cyber findings to enhance security posture and maturity.

**FY2026 to FY2027 change.** Increase in FY 2027 is for Integration of Tomahawk payload into sub-surface vessels. Funding requested supports efforts primarily at NUWC Newport including prototyping, system engineering, software development and payload control system, and Common Weapons Launcher & Multi-Tube Weapons Simulator testing.

**FY2026 plans — current year.** FY 2026 plans include the planning, design/development, and validation of new advanced computing hardware components with increased capacity/throughput, security measures, integrated combat systems prototypes, and software architecture that increases performance for fielded systems and is aligned/interoperable with future networking capabilities. Enhance hardware and software products through security engineering efforts, prototype hardware virtual twins, hardware surrogates/alternatives, and prove out technology insertion methods. TTWCS program will continue evaluation of fielded systems for cyber threats, create impact assessments and mitigation plans, and develop suitable alternatives/roadmaps to strengthen maturity, reliability, and resilience. TTWCS will evaluate and address cyber findings to enhance security posture and maturity.
