I. Description of Operations Financed: The Air Force Servicewide Communications Systems provide a vital voice and data communications
services for the warfighter at all Air Force locations. Programs include: worldwide voice capability through the Defense Switched Network
(DSN); high quality secure voice communications and conferencing from the Defense Red Switch (DRSN); global data transport service and
electronic mail via the unclassified but sensitive Internet Protocol Router Network (NIPRNET) and the Secret Internet Protocol Router Network
(SIPRNET); message service through the Defense Message System (DMS), secure/non-secure wireless communications through the global High
Frequency (HF) Radio Network, installation of high-speed, fiber optic infrastructure to support these capabilities through the Combat Information
Transport System. These programs ensure the interoperability and integration of systems for the entire Command, Control, Communications, and
Computer (C4) community and provide information systems security through information protection, computer security, emissions security, and
Communications Security (COMSEC) in order to protect Air Force C2, weapon systems, and overall force management systems.

Operations in Southwest Asia (SWA), including Operation Northern Watch,
Operation Southern Watch and Operation Desert Spring, have been ongoing for 10
years. With only a few notable exceptions, the force structure and operations tempo
in SWA are fairly stable. Because these operations will continue into the foreseeable
future, funding for SWA was transferred from the Overseas Contingency Operation
Transfer Fund to the services' baseline effective FY02. Henceforth, services will
plan, program and budget for these operations as they do for other baseline programs.
The funding transfer resulted in a budget increase in all sub-activity groups that
support SWA.
b) Transfers Out ........................................................................................................................
$-1,216

i) DISN Tier One Cost (FY 2001 Base $0) ........................................................................
Increase attributed to funding realignment within the program from Defense
Integrated Services Network (DISN) Tier One funds to reflect DISN Tier One cost
program. This realignment is from Long Haul Communications within this
Subactivity Group (see paragraph 7.ci.).
$53,365
ii) Air Force Wide Communications (FY 2001 Base $7,084) ............................................
Supports implementation and installation of fiber optic cable upgrades being done
under the Combat Information Transport System (CITS) program. In FY01, the
majority of the operations and maintenance funds were transferred to Other
Procurement since the equipment contract provider was going to do the engineering
and installation of the equipment as a “turn-key” order. This plan was not feasible for
overseas locations due to foreign restrictions on using non-local telecommunications
companies for connectivity. CITS program will continue to provide the equipment
and hardware from investment funds. Additional operations and maintenance funds
were needed starting in FY 2002 to pay for engineering and installation contract
support from the host local telecommunications company for Europe and Pacific
bases.
$9,553
iii) Information Systems Security Program (FY 2001 Base $38,689) ..................................
Increase provides for additional contract support to the defensive counter information
mission. These funds will be used to provide an array of critical services in computer
security and telecommunications security. Resources provide the Air Force Computer
Emergency Response Team with the capability to support the Joint Task Force for
Computer Network Defense and deployed customers. Additionally, they fund the
implementation and support costs of additional intrusion detection tools.
$4,751
iv) Competitive Sourcing and Privatization: (FY 2001 Base $0) .........................................
Incremental increase reflects greater Competitive Sourcing and Privatization program
study candidate population in the FY 2002 baseline when compared with FY01. This
$2,388

Detail by Subactivity Group: Servicewide Communications
increase is offset by the competition of a direct conversion as part of the Air Force
Competitive Sourcing and Privatization program in accordance with the guidelines in
OMB Circular A-76.
v) Defense Messaging System – AF (FY 2001 Base $47,055) ........................................
The increase adds funds to the DMS program to sustain Automated Digital Network
(AUTODIN) through FY 2003. The services must sustain AUTODIN to provide
emergency action, coalition and tactical message delivery capability until these
message services are provided by the DMS program.
$1,065
vi) Communications Security (FY 2001 Base $21,062) ......................................................
Added contractor support to the Information Assurance Product Area Directorate.
Specifically, funds will provide support for evaluating Intrusion Detection Systems
for computer networks. This effort will provide the capability to compare current
systems funded throughout DoD and evaluate capabilities of emerging commercial
products.

Defense Integrated Services Network (DISN) Tier One funds are realigned to the
DISN Tier One Cost program beginning in FY 2002. The DISN Tier One funds
represent the Defense Information Systems Agency’s (DISA) costs for sustaining and
maintaining DISN's military unique capabilities ($-53,365). Further reduction is due
to favorable contract negotiations with Foreign Telecommunications companies to
provide support to overseas Defense Communications System locations ($-1,575).
