Joint Warfighting Program (JWP)

Abstract

The Joint Warfighting Program (JWP) supports the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Acquisition (ASD(A))'s responsibilities for acquisition and portfolio management. JWP underwrites analyses, studies, limited scope experiments, wargaming, and partnerships that define joint capability gaps and develops credible requirements for follow-on acquisition efforts. These analyses and assessments deliver independent perspectives on potential remedies to align acquisition investments and solutions for joint capability gaps created by future warfighting environments and emerging threats. JWP supports two main lines of effort, mission integration management and cyber resiliency wargames. Mission integration management will access specific critical mission threads, determine defense investments to fix lethality deficiencies, and to develop kill chain data modeling. Cyber resiliency wargames will be conducted in support of Combatant Commands mission areas to develop strategies for mitigation of cyber vulnerabilities focusing on ballistic missile defense, nuclear command and control and other key mission areas relevant to national security challenges.
