Program Lineage

No predecessor/successor lineage was recorded for this program element — no FY-to-FY transfer into or out of this line was stated in the ingested J-books, and none was inferred from the program structure.

Description

Mission Decision Support Tools and AI Development

Established program is the data processing arm using AI/ML to ultimately support the missions and effects for Navy's undersea warfighting capabilities. The workload includes research, development and testing, as well as operations and maintain lines of effort to include civilian, military, contractor support/manpower and their related costs, and capability development.

Mission (U)UNDERSEA ARTIFICIAL INTEL/MACHINE LEARNING

New program element (PE) established to align undersea Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning (AI/ML) capability development and meet OUSD (Intelligence and Security) requirement for Military Intelligence Program (MIP). AI/ML represents an important evolution in computer science and data processing by automating repetitive tasks such as data entry and analysis, mitigating human errors and increasing efficiency and operation productivity. AI/ML is quickly transforming the data gathering and identification process with undersea noise in support of undersea surveillance systems. This program is the data processing arm using AI/ML to ultimately support the missions and effects for Navy's undersea warfighting capabilities. The workload includes research, development and testing, as well as operations and maintain lines of effort to include civilian, military, contractor support/manpower and their related costs, and capability development. A dedicated MIP PE/LI is required to structure an effective resourcing strategy, prevent duplicative efforts, and ensure proper accounting of all undersea AI/ML resources.

No follow-the-dollar view — this program's awards haven't been crosswalked at high confidence (flows cover 17 of 1741 programs). why coverage is partial? →

Awards

No awards are linked to this program element at high confidence — the budget→award crosswalk only asserts links it can defend, and this line has none yet.

Lobbying Mentions

No Senate LDA lobbying filing in the tracked data mentions this program element by code or alias.

No research dossier for this program — dossiers cover 50 of 1741 programs, the largest fully J-book-detailed lines by FY2026 requested dollars. why no dossier here? →
