THE OFFICE OF NAVAL RESEARCH GLOBAL
Abstract
ONR has a presence overseas, with an overarching purpose to search the globe for promising, emerging scientific research and development efforts to address the current needs of the Fleet/Forces, and investigate high-payoff technologies for future naval missions and capabilities. To accomplish this task, ONR capitalizes on global innovation and investment to solve U.S. Navy and Marine Corps science and technology (S&T) challenges, builds global S&T awareness to mitigate risk of potential technological surprise, ensures Fleet/Forces capability needs are communicated to the Naval Research Enterprise (NRE), and facilitates delivery of Naval S&T solutions to the Fleet/Forces. ONR Applied Research (6.2) requirements prior to FY 2014 were funded in another R-2 activity within this PE and also in PE 0602123N and 0206568N. Starting in FY 2014, these requirements have been consolidated into this separate R-2 activity to provide greater visibility for ONR international collaboration and research efforts.
