(U)Future Naval Capabilities Advanced Tech Dev

Abstract

The Future Naval Capabilities (FNC) program represents the requirements-driven, delivery-oriented piece of the Department of the Navy (DON) Science and Technology (S&T) portfolio. The efforts described in this Program Element (PE) address the Advanced Technology Development associated with the FNC Program. The objective of the work in this PE is to develop promising technologies emerging from the FNC Applied Research program that have successfully matured to higher Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs). The FNC Program was restructured for FY19 to accelerate transition to the Fleet and Force. This restructuring involved a zero based review of all ongoing FNC projects, where each effort was assessed for its technology maturity and transition commitment. Ongoing efforts were categorized as FNCs or Technology Candidates. Some efforts were terminated and others were accelerated to achieve the goals of the restructured program. Funding for FNCs, which have higher Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs of 4/5 to 6) and transition funding commitments, are being resourced in this PE, 0603673N Future Naval Capabilities Advanced Technology Development. ONR is coordinating closely with the resource Sponsors and acquisition stakeholders to develop high priority technological capabilities needed by the operational forces. Due to the number of efforts in this PE, the programs described herein are representative of the work included in this PE.
