Maritime Systems
Abstract
This program element provides for the 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 the 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 emerging 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 the EMD for all combatant craft, combatant craft mission equipment, pre-planned product improvement, and technology insertion 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. The total cost of the Combat Diving Middle Tier of Acquisition effort is $22.237 million (FY 2023 - FY 2027), including RDT&E and procurement of prototype units. The Combat Diving effort is fully funded across the Future Years Defense Program. The total cost of the Maritime Precision Engagement (MPE) Middle Tier of Acquisition effort is $11.703 million (FY 2023 - FY 2027), including Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation (RDT&E) and procurement of prototype units. The MPE effort is fully funded across the Future Years Defense Program.

- Change Summary Explanation
- Funding: FY 2021: Net decrease of $2.501 million is due to a reprogramming of funds to the Congressionally mandated Small Business Innovative (SBIR)/Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs. FY 2022: Net increase of $4.200 million is due to a Congressional Add for diver propulsion. FY 2023: Funding increase of $82.465 million reflects the fact that the FY 2022 President’s Budget request did not include out-year funding. FY 2023 funding request was reduced by $1.820 million to account for the availability of prior year execution balances.
