Program detail

Mission & acquisition strategy

Tactical Exploitation of National Capabilities (TENCAP) exploits national capabilities to pace evolving threats in support of operations during conflict and competition. TENCAP systems and technologies provide deep sensing to support commanders' situational understanding (patterns of life, threat intentions, etc.), indications & warnings (detection of enemy mobilization and hostile activity), and intelligence support to targeting (order of battle, electronic target folders, target detection, Battle Damage Assessment, etc.).

Details provided under separate cover.
