Maritime Systems
Abstract
This program element provides for Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) 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 technologies, and new development efforts. These technologies will be pursued via rapid prototyping efforts when appropriate. The Underwater Systems project provides for EMD of combat submersibles, SOF combat diving systems, underwater support systems, and underwater equipment. This project also provides for pre-acquisition activities (materiel solutions analysis, advanced component, prototype development, and exploitation of emerging technology opportunities to deliver enhanced capabilities) to respond to emergent requirements. These submersibles, equipment, and diving systems are used by SOF in the conduct of infiltration/extraction, personnel/material recovery, hydrographic/inland reconnaissance, beach obstacle clearance, underwater ship attack, and other missions. The capabilities of the submersible systems, diving systems, and unique equipment provide 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 EMD of medium and heavy surface combatant craft, combatant craft mission equipment, and pre-planned product improvement and technology insertion engineering changes to meet the unique requirements of SOF. This project element also provides for pre-acquisition activities (materiel solutions analysis, advanced component development and 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 2020: Net decrease of $1.888 million is due to transfer of funds to Small Business Innovative Research/Small Business Technology Transfer (SBIR/STTR) reductions (-$2.588 million) and an increase was to support DDS modernization efforts and testing ($0.700 million). FY 2021: Net increase of $8.656 million to support of SOF Combat Diving Propulsion ($4.200 million) and Communication ($4.500 million) and Congressional direction reduction for excess to need ($-0.044 million). FY 2022: Net increase of $7.331 million is due to an increase to support SOF Combat Diving prototyping, developmental testing/operational testing (DT/OT), and technical management of the increased prototyping efforts for new capabilities aligning with Component requirements ($0.750 million), an increase to support SEAL Delivery Vehicle (SDV) MK 11 development enhancements ($3.027 million), an increase to support continued development and testing of Maritime Precision Engagement (MPE) on Combatant Craft Medium (CCM) ($4.500 million) and funding made available to support emerging critical Command requirements ($-0.946 million). Schedule: None. Technical: None.
