Abstract
The objective of this portfolio is to explore high-risk, disruptive, and innovative technologies and concepts, and provide a venue to develop innovative technologies that are targeted towards advancing the capabilities of naval warfighters. Because of the portfolio's high-risk nature, brief exploratory studies can be performed to examine the maturation of the technology proposed before making substantial investments. The program has substantial flexibility in planning and execution which includes a streamlined approval process allowing for the shortest possible technology development timeframe. The portfolio is not limited to any set of technology areas with innovative technology development ultimately providing a dramatic improvement for the warfighter. Some of these technologies may become part of a follow-on technology development, may end up in the hands of the warfighter for Fleet/Force experimentation, or may culminate in a significant Fleet/Force exercise that demonstrates capability that transitions into the Acquisition Program of Record (POR).
