AS 2030 Air Dominance Technologies (ADT)

Abstract

Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) is a portfolio of technologies enabling Air Superiority for the Joint Force in the most challenging operational environments. The NGAD program is influenced by the CSAF-approved Air Superiority Enterprise Capability Collaboration Team (ECCT) Flight Plan. The program matures technology and reduces risk through development, integration, and test activities. Key NGAD attributes include enhancements in survivability, lethality, persistence, and interoperability across a range of military operations. Program activities also include the employment of digital acquisitions through the application of digital engineering, agile software development, open systems architectures and digital systems infrastructure. Funding provides operational concept exploration, technology studies, multi-domain integration assessments, operational and system architecture development, maturation and risk reduction of air superiority related technologies, including weapons systems and integrated system concept development and demonstration as well as program management support. Program management support costs includes but is not limited to A&AS, civilian pay, supplies, and facility related expenses. NGAD technologies are designed to become available to other DoD systems based on emerging threats, AF priorities, and development capacity. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver weapon system capability. The use of such programs funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program element 0605827F, 0605828F, 0605829F, 0605831F, 0605832F, 0605833F, 0605898F, 0606398F. In FY22 $14.302M was expended for civilian pay expenses in this program element, and in FY23 $24.621M is forecast for civilian pay expenses in this program element.
