Getting Technology to the Warfighter NDIA S&T Conference - Charleston Getting Technology to the Warfighter Ms. Sue Payton DUSD (AS&C)/Dep. DDR&E (Acting) April 20, 2005

Who is the Warfighter? Military Services Core Military/Service-specific capability providers “…to organize, train and equip…” Joint Combatant Commands Military capability end-user – the warfighters

What are Joint Capabilities? AS&C Program Perspective Multi-Service Core Military Capabilities. Common denominator Military forces provided worldwide as self- integrated, self-sustaining echelons by the Services. (Global Positioning System, Movement Tracking System) Joint Enabling Capabilities. Additional capabilities required by warfighters to exercise joint command, and to enable core military elements to function effectively as a coherent joint force. (Network Centric Operations, Common Operational Picture) Unique Regional/Specified Mission Requirements. Capabilities beyond common core military capabilities required by warfighters to effectively function in operational environments associated with assigned regional or specified missions. (Foliage Penetrating Radar, Language Translators) Joint is an inter-Service reliance acting together as one - not a patchwork of deconflicted Service operations. (General Tommy Franks, excerpts from American Soldier)

Are There Valid Requirements Beyond Service-Specific/Core Military Capabilities? Characterization of Joint CoCom Requirements: Core Service-specific capabilities (~80%?) Joint Coalition military requirements (~20%?) Joint capability enablers (~10% - and growing) Tailored regional/specified requirements (~10%?)

AS&C Funding Split (FYDP) by Functional Capability Area Dollars in Millions Total AS&C funding (Prior Years & Future) of Approximately 200 Projects $1.1 Billion Based on FY 2006 PresBud and Congressional Reports Includes: ACTD, FCT, DACP, and TTI

FY-2005 CoCom Funding Support $2,668 Dollars in Millions $436 $334 $262 $271 $335 $140 $184 $29 Lead Service A = Army AF = Air Force N =Navy * Only JFCOM and SOCOM receive dedicated RDT&E program funds ** NORTHCOM and STRATCOM have limited Procurement funds Based on FY-05 PresBud Submit

Advanced Systems & Concepts Rapidly placing relevant, mature technology into the hands of warfighters DoD’s resource for technology transition AS&C Partners with Services & Agencies to: Match technology to warfighting needs Overcome resistance to transformational concepts Ensure technology contributes to joint capabilities Provide joint warfighters with options for integrating service capabilities Transfer DoD technology to the private sector: An industry on-ramp and access to meeting warfighter needs ManTech’s Focal Plane Array Cooled and uncooled IRFPAs and components for the Near IR, Mid IR, and Long IR wavebands Raven UAV for small units from Pathfinder ACTD Defense Acquisition Challenge Aerogel for Ships: Fire barrier, IR Suppression, Blast Mitigation, Decreased Weight, Volume, Installation Costs, and Fuel Savings Title III’s Laser Protective Eyewear

The diversity of programs reflects the many aspects of tech transition that must be covered to field capabilities. These programs accurately reflect both the “tech push” and the “requirements pull” aspects of the tech transition challenge. As these programs gravitated under AS&C’s umbrella, we discovered that they frequently feed and reinforce each other. For example, exercises underwritten by the Joint Warfighting Program can point out areas of joint capabilities that need new technologies and operational concepts. Successful tests and demonstrations may point to enhancements in the industrial base necessary to assure domestic sources of key technologies.

AS&C Industry Opportunities Technology transition programs can work in harmony or independently, but they all share a common goal—to accelerate the best technologies available to the warfighter into residual capabilities, acquisition programs, and ongoing sustainment. Industry Through Labs Emergent Technology Sponsored by Lab Technology Transition Initiative (TTI) Technology Transfer AS&C FIELDED CAPABILITIES Into PORs, CoCom Budgets, GSA (With emphasis on joint missions) Accelerated Acquisition Programs and Initial Production Industry Through ACTDs and PORs Manufacturing Hurdles North American Trade Industrial Base Foreign Partners Review Manufacturing Technology DPA Title III Program Foreign Comparative Test NATIBO Committees Industry Direct to Transition Program Royalties and Patents Emergent and Innovative Technologies This slide is another way of portraying the mutually supportive aspect of AS&C’s tech transition programs. Why the emphasis on joint capabilities? Because the services do a great job of providing core military capabilities. Our OSD role comes in where we can achieve economies and dividends from multi-service efforts, and where joint combatant commanders have requirements that are not met by core military capabilities.
