BIGBIRD

sorry if already seen, new to me

BIGBIRD

(TS//SI//NF) A cable modernization effort, which began in 2004 to support

the theme of a more focused, agile collection, a more cost-effective cover, and access

to new higher priority cable systems. As part of the FAIRVIEW/SSO broad access,

focused collection strategy, the BIGBIRD effort provided the program with significant

additional access to targets on selected undersea cable systems, an automated remote

survey capability, and a modernized collection and processing suite for exploiting this

new access.
