SOF Surface Craft/S1684

Abstract

This program element provides for engineering & manufacturing development (formerly system development & demonstration) and operational systems development of small to medium surface craft and selected items of specialized equipment to meet the unique requirements of Special Operations Forces (SOF). This program element also provides for pre-acquisition activities (materiel solutions analysis, advanced component development & prototypes) to quickly respond to possible new requirements for surface craft and equipment, such as the notional light and heavy combatant crafts that are currently being studied in the Joint Capabilities Integration and Development System process. The craft capabilities and unique equipment provide small, highly trained forces the ability to successfully engage the enemy and conduct clandestine operations associated with SOF maritime missions.
