## What project 1510 buys

This project addresses applied research associated with providing the capability of Platform and Force Protection for Expeditionary Forces. It supports the development of technologies associated with all naval platforms (surface, subsurface, terrestrial, and air) and the protection of those platforms. Research is focused on providing technologically superior defense of naval assets and delivering warfighting capabilities at reduced total ownership costs for surface and subsurface platforms through investments in applied research in Power, Energy, Propulsion, Engineering, and Design. This project develops technologies for reducing detectable signatures, while enhancing the mission effectiveness of naval platforms (surface, subsurface, terrestrial, and air) through improvements in platform range, responsiveness, survivability, observability, readiness, safety and life cycle cost. The project addresses technology development that provides substantial performance improvements in energetic material systems and subsystems, while addressing safety, reliability, and affordability concerns.

## What is NOT on this page

Congressional marks, the R-2 mission description and acquisition strategy, the industry vs government split of the whole request, and related program elements are recorded at **program-element** grain — an NDAA mark lands on a PE, never on a project.
