Test & Evaluation Support

Abstract

This program provides institutional maintenance and operations support for: the Naval Undersea Warfare Center Detachment Atlantic Undersea Test and Evaluation Center (AUTEC), Andros Island, Bahamas; the Environmental Compliance Program; Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division (NAWCWD), Point Mugu and China Lake, CA; Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD), Patuxent River, MD; Test and Evaluation (T&E) related capabilities at the Pacific Missile Range Facility, Barking Sands, HI; Maintenance and Repair at NAWCWD and NAWCAD; and the Naval Undersea Warfare Center Keyport (NUWC KEYPORT) Nanoose and Dabob Bay Ranges. The T&E activities make up the Navy portion of the Department of Defense's Major Range and Test Facility Base (MRTFB). These activities are chartered to perform T&E for the development and acquisition of technology advanced weapons systems. Core T&E capabilities and capacity are operated to obtain weapons system performance documentation for acquisition program milestone decisions to provide operational forces with effective weapons systems. This program provides Navy Acquisition Program Managers required test capabilities; lowers cost of T&E; removes cost and scheduling impact of providing their own T&E resources; and retains the physical airspace, land space and sea space needed to conduct testing.
