SEA-8 Tasking
•The OPNAV N7 tasking requested the Meyer Institute to perform a study of System-of-Systems (SoS) architectures for the conduct of undersea warfare in the littorals in the 2025 timeframe.  To that end, Systems Engineering and Analysis group 8 (SEA-8) was tasked with developing those architectures, operations and associated capabilities required for the United States Navy (USN) to meet the challenges contained within the Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) “Anti-Submarine Warfare, Concept of Operations (CONOPS) for the 21st Century” published on 20 December 2004.  As a systems engineering team, SEA-8 followed a methodical process that provided unbiased, quantifiable insight and possible architectural solutions for this future littoral ASW challenge.
