The vertical scale does not start at zero: the baseline sits just below this program’s smallest year, so a low point on this line is not a small amount. Read the shape for direction and the grid below for the figures.

Asked vs spent: the PB2021 book requested $2.35M for FY2021; the PB2023 book reported $2.25M as actual total obligation authority — $99.0K below the request. 2.25 − 2.35 = -0.10 USD millions — the compact figures above are rounded for reading.

Description

Mission — (U)NAVAL CONSTRUCTION FORCES

Project 3444 directly supports Joint Force resiliency in accordance with the National Defense Strategy (NDS), A Design for Maintaining Maritime Superiority 2.0, and Distributed Maritime Logistics Operations by addressing capability gaps within the Naval Construction Force (NCF) to support Joint Operations in a contested environment. Project 3444 invests in technologies that enable capabilities such as Expeditionary Rapid Airfield Damage Repair (ExRADR), Expeditionary Port Damage Repair and Opening (ExPDRO), Advanced Naval Base (ANB) Construction, Expeditionary Ordnance Re-load (ExOR), Expeditionary Fuel Storage and Distribution (ExFUEL), and Expeditionary Force Sustainment in a contested l environment. Future changes to NCF capabilities, organization, and table of allowance material are required to support new warfighting concepts and operational plans. Further, mobile infrastructure repair capabilities are envisioned to supplement these vulnerable fixed airfield and port infrastructure assets. This program provides for investment in technologies, materials, and process solutions to improve logistics resiliency and enhance Expeditionary Navy performance in the following portfolio areas; ExRADR, ExPDRO, ANB Construction, and Advanced Manufacturing (AdvM). Investments that facilitate ExRADR include autonomous airfield inspection and survey; autonomous airfield damage repair construction equipment integration, testing, and evaluation; and test and evaluation of Joint Capability Technology Demonstration (JCTD) products. Additional investments that facilitate ExPDRO include expeditionary dredge research; quay wall repair techniques and technologies; expeditionary mooring and fendering systems; port assessment sensor package integration for port engineering reconnaissance and assessment; floating work platform family of systems (FoS) integration to support dredging, pile driving, and waterfront construction; development, testing, and evaluation of diving tools and equipment to support underwater construction; and integration, testing, and evaluation of remote-controlled, semi-autonomous, and full-autonomous engineering surveying and construction equipment capabilities. Investments in AdvM includes the developmental and prototyping efforts for a forward deployable family of AdvM systems; developmental testing and evaluation; and operational testing and evaluation. Development of ANB Construction materials and equipment will maximize agility and resiliency while reducing the demand on logistics during distributed maritime operations. These technologies will enable new concepts for expeditionary engineering by enhancing the Naval Construction Force's capabilities for site identification, selection, and planning; site clearing and preparation; construction activities; water purification, distribution, and management; waste water management; energy production, storage, and distribution; site operations support (including local material handling, damage repair, etc.); and site deconstruction and retrograde activities. Technologies demonstrated will provide required engineer support capability while maximizing the ability to deploy (by minimizing size and weight) and enhancing operator safety (by providing direct operator protection or allowing for remote or autonomous operation). The results of these efforts will enhance Navy force response plans, and Joint Force Commander's flexibility to deploy and employ from expeditionary airfields, as well as deliver and sustain warfighting capabilities at the point of effect. This includes "right size, just-in-time" technologies that can facilitate both conventional and autonomous rapid assessment, repair, and re-constitution of expeditionary airfields. These efforts to develop technologies supporting NCF's ExPDRO capabilities include just-in-time assessment and rapid repair of piers, quay- walls, fleet moorings, critical expeditionary waterfront facilities and infrastructure, and port facilities above, at, and below the waterline to enable the reviving, re-armament, repair, re- fueling, re-calibration and re-constitution of fleet platforms at Sea Ports of Debarkation (SPODs) available during Major Combat Operations (MCO). Efforts involves transitioning these capabilities into a program of record within an existing Table of Allowance (TOA) and Supports NDS requirements of Resilient and Agile Logistics and supplements the Navy's ExRADR Program of DMO 38-Operational Logistics allowing dynamic operational maneuverability with both fixed and mobile logistics.

Mission — Airfield/Port Damage Repair

Project 3444 directly supports Joint Force resiliency in accordance with the National Defense Strategy (NDS) of 2022, A Design for Maintaining Maritime Superiority 2.0, and Distributed Maritime Logistics Operations by addressing capability gaps within the Naval Construction Force (NCF) to support Joint Operations in a conested environment. Project 3444 invests in technologies that enable capabilities such as Expeditionary Rapid Airfield Damage Repair (ExRADR), Expeditionary Port Damage Repair and Opening (ExPDRO), Advanced Naval Base (ANB) Construction, Expeditionary Ordnance Re-load (ExOR), Expeditionary Fuel Storage and Distribution (ExFUEL), and Expeditionary Force Sustainment in a contested l environment.
