Change Summary Explanation
AMAC program was discontinued after FY12. Funding was reestablished to the FMP program beginning in FY14. A reduction to FY 14 impacts FMP requirements to acquire foreign threat systems. This will degrade ongoing and new developmental work at Navy laboratories that are developing and enhancing countermeasures for U.S. Navy platforms based upon FMP programs. The potential result is an increase in the vulnerability of USN platforms to currently fielded threat systems. Also impacts our ability to respond to short-fuse Navy FMA opportunities.
