Surface ASW

Abstract

The objective of this Program Element (PE) is to pursue the development of technologies with the goal of improving Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) effectiveness to the point of rendering the enemy submarine irrelevant against U.S. and coalition forces. U.S. adversaries continue to develop asymmetric capabilities and capacities to deter, disrupt, or delay the entry of U.S. and allied naval forces, and pose a constant challenge as we implement the Maritime Strategy. These trends increase the threats to U.S. surface combatants, thus requiring a focused effort to identify the most promising ASW technologies through a process of discovery, assessment, experimentation, and analysis. Studies, experiments, and/or technology developments under this PE will seek to improve the ability of surface combatants to detect, classify, localize, and track submerged contacts and detect and defend against modern torpedoes. To achieve these objectives, it is essential to develop new ASW technologies. The products from these efforts will be provided to the Advanced Capability Build (ACB) program supporting the continuing improvement of the AN/SQQ-89A(V)15 Surface Ship ASW Combat System.

Change Summary Explanation
FUNDING CHANGES SINCE PREVIOUS PRESIDENT'S BUDGET: - FY 2021 decrease of $-0.043M reflects the Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) transfer. FY 2022 TO FY 2023 BUDGET REQUEST INCREASE: - FY 2022 ($1.144M) to FY 2023 ($1.180M) increase ($+0.036M) is in line with the inflation expected with the RDT&EN appropriation. --- FY 2023 funding increase reflects the fact that the FY 2022 President’s Budget request did not include out-year funding.
