Counter Improvised-Threat Simulation

Abstract

The Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) advanced technology development program element funds the assessment, analysis, experimentation, evaluation, and testing of systems to counter asymmetric threats to determine feasibility for prototyping, spiral development, Program of Record investment and potential for immediate fielding. Understanding asymmetric threats is the driving force behind DTRA's deliberate, structured, and proactive approach to understanding, anticipating, illuminating, isolating, and/or mitigating threats through identified needs. DTRA is working to bring concepts and theories forward to assist and hasten the development of subsystems and components along with integration into prototypes for field experiments and/or laboratory tests.

Change Summary Explanation
The decrease in FY 2022 from the previous President's Budget is due to 1) the realignment of resources from Project JC - Enable Rapid Capability Delivery in this program element to Project RA - CWMD Cross-Cutting Technical and Information Sciences in PE 0603160BR for technology-driven CWMD capability development and evaluation activities to develop cross cutting innovative and agile new technologies that more effectively counter the full spectrum of weapons of mass destruction, by anticipating new threats while responding to current and constantly evolving threats, 2) the realignment of resources from Project JC - Enable Rapid Capability Delivery to Project RG - Counter WMD Technologies and Capabilities Development in PE 0603160BR to enable rapid capability delivery activities, and 3) the realignment of resources from Projects JC - Enable Rapid Capability Delivery to Project RR - Counter WMD Test and Evaluation in PE 0603160BR to more effectively align Agency support of COCOM and Military Department testing and evaluation (T&E) efforts and to facilitate the transition of CWMD capabilities into the next stage of development.
