Maritime Systems
Abstract
This program element provides for engineering & manufacturing development and operational development of Special Operations Forces (SOF) Surface and Undersea Mobility platforms. This program element also provides for pre-acquisition activities to quickly respond to new requirements for SOF surface and undersea mobility, looking at multiple alternatives to include cross-platform technical solutions, service common solutions, Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) technologies and new development efforts. The Underwater Systems project provides for engineering and manufacturing development and operational systems development of combat underwater submersibles and underwater support systems and equipment. This project also provides for pre-acquisition activities (materiel solutions analysis, advanced component development and prototypes) to respond to emergent requirements. These submersibles, systems, and equipment are used by SOF in the conduct of infiltration/extraction, hydrographic/inland reconnaissance, beach obstacle clearance, underwater ship attack, and other missions. The capabilities of the submersible systems and unique equipment provides small, highly trained forces the ability to successfully engage the enemy and conduct clandestine operations associated with SOF maritime missions. The Surface Craft project provides for engineering & manufacturing development and operational systems development of light, medium, and heavy surface combatant craft and selected items of specialized equipment to meet the unique requirements of SOF. This project element also provides for pre-acquisition activities (materiel solutions analysis, advanced component development & prototypes) to quickly respond to new requirements for maritime craft and subsystems. The craft capabilities and unique equipment provide small, highly trained forces the ability to successfully engage the enemy and conduct operations associated with SOF maritime missions.

- Change Summary Explanation
- Funding: FY 2014: None. FY 2015: This program element was reduced due to a Congressional Directed Reduction of $1.159 million to the Next Generation Surface System program. FY 2016: Net increase of $43.973 million. Revised program strategy for the Dry Combat Submersible, increase of $27.277 million to support the development of technology maturation of the DCS, increase of $10.000 million for the modernization effort for the Dry Deck Shelter in order to transition from SSGN to Virginia Class host platform and increase capacity to carry larger payloads, increase of $7.596 million to support engineering and testing for Shallow Water Combat Submersible (SWCS), decrease of ($0.900) million to support higher command priorities, and a decrease of ($0.461) million is due to a Departmental economic assumption decrease. Schedule: Revisions to the Dry Combat Submersible schedule from a combined MS B/C to MS B and MS C decisions. Technical: Added Dry Deck Shelter Modernization effort and SOF Combat Diving.
