Force Protection Advanced Technology
Abstract
This project addresses advanced technology development associated with providing the capability of Platform and Force Protection for the U.S. Navy. This project supports the development of technologies associated with all naval platforms (surface, subsurface, terrestrial, and air) and the protection of those platforms. It supports the Sea Shield and Cross Pillar Enablers, and Enterprise and Platform Enablers (EPE) -- Future Naval Capabilities (FNCs). The goals of this project are to provide the ability to win or avoid engagements with other platforms or weapons and, in the event of engagement, to resist and control damage while preserving operational capability. This Project reflects the alignment of investments for the following ECs: Total Ship Survivability Damage Tolerance and Recoverability; Over-the-Horizon Missile Defense; Two-Torpedo Salvo Defense; Defense of Harbor and Near-Shore Naval Infrastructure Against Asymmetric Threats; Sea Based Missile Defense of Ships & Littoral Installations; Aircraft Integrated Self-Protection Suites; Hostile Fire Detection and Response Spirals 1 and 2; Four-Torpedo Salvo Defense; Shipboard Force Protection in Port and Restricted Waters - Detection and Classification; and Underwater Total Ship Survivability.
