WARFIGHTING EXCELLENCE
Abstract
This activity includes Marine Corps Warfighting Laboraroty / Futures Directorate (MCWL/FD) efforts in the development and assessment of joint and service warfighting concepts, joint and service missions, analysis of emerging threats and opportunities, and joint capability experimentation. It also includes MCWL/FD service experimentation in areas that impact multiple warfighting functions. Although this category covers several small (less than $500K per FY) efforts being pursued by MCWL/FD, most programs listed below are considered major (valued at $500K or more) or have near-real-time operational impact. The FY 2016 to FY 2017 increase in category funding is attributable to increased wargaming and involvement/participation in joint arena technology demonstration programs with an ultimate aim to rapidly field needed capabilities by capitalizing on emergent technologies and innovational operational concepts. The FY 2017 to FY 2018 decrease in category funding is due to: reducing funds provided for joint programs in order to focus on assessing FY 2017 investment outcomes/progress as well as the completion of experimentation focused modeling and simulation development/assessments.
