Counter Improvised-Threat Technology Demonstration, Prototype Development, and Testing

Abstract

This program element supports the development, demonstration, and testing of technologies to advance the analytical infrastructure, methods, and tools to enhance asymmetric countermeasure solutions. Advancements in analytics include the production of tools that leverage machine learning and artificial intelligence, increasing our ability to expedite the understanding of emerging threats and accompanying activities. This investment also enables development and delivery of capabilities to understand, anticipate, illuminate, isolate, and/or mitigate asymmetric threats and their effects. DTRA expedites technology transition from the laboratory to operational use to reduce risk within the acquisition process. This is done by evaluating integrated technologies or prototype systems in a high quality and realistic operating environment.

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 to Project RA - CWMD Cross-Cutting Technical and Information Sciences in PE 0602718BR and PE 0603160BR for technology-driven CWMD capability development and evaluation activities to develop organizationally 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 JS – Assist Situational Understanding to O&M funding for technology transformation sustainment and combatant command embedded analytical support and 3) the realignment of resources from Project JS – Assist Situational Understanding to the new PE 0604551BR to better reflect the nature of enduring activities in support of Catapult. Although not reflected in this PE, in FY 2020, $8.110 million was appropriately executed in PE 0604134BR for the Catapult Program of Record. Within the exhibit, execution is reflected in PE 0604551BR which was newly established for Catapult beginning in FY 2022.
