Mission & acquisition strategy
The Office of Naval Research's (ONR) mission is to foster scientific research for the advancement of naval power. This work does not stop at the laboratory. Delivery of breakthrough capability often requires new technologies in manufacturing and supply chains of national security. The Manufacturing Technology (ManTech) Program is intended to improve the productivity and responsiveness of the U.S. defense industrial base by funding the development, optimization, and transition of enabling manufacturing technologies to key naval suppliers.

The R-2A exhibit. Activities carry the prior, current and budget year only — no five-year plan — and they are descriptive: coverage is partial and they do not always add back to the project, so count them, never total them. Opening lines only here — the full year-by-year narrative is on the project page.

The Manufacturing Technology (ManTech) Program is intended to improve the productivity and responsiveness of the U.S. defense industrial base by funding the development, optimization, and transition of enabling manufacturing technologies to key naval suppliers. In general, investments transition emerging Science and Technology (S&T) results to acquisition programs; improve industrial capabilities in production, maintenance, repair and industrial base responsiveness; and advance manufacturing technology to reduce cost, improve performance, and responsiveness. Currently, the ManTech Program is focused on expanded throughput, affordability, and enhanced capability for specific key acquisition platforms as defined in the Navy ManTech Investment Strategy. Primary platforms currently targeted include: VIRGINIA Class Submarine (VCS)/COLUMBIA Class submarine (CLB); DDG 51 Class destroyer; CVN 78 Class carrier; F-35 Lightning II aircraft; and critical PEO IWS systems.
