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.
● actuals (line) · ○ enacted · ◇ request — gaps are editions the program is absent from, never interpolated.

Asked vs spent: the PB2021 book requested $8.01M for FY2021; the PB2023 book reported $22.3M as actual total obligation authority — $14.3M above the request. 22.3 − 8.0 = 14.3 USD millions — the compact figures above are rounded for reading.

Description
Mission — Electromagnetic Systems Advanced Technology
The Navy and Marine Corps' sophisticated electronics systems place heavy demands on the electromagnetic spectrum to accommodate information flow, defensive and offensive detection, tracking, and weapon system engagement. In distributed maritime operations, each of these platforms provides a set of capabilities that can be further combined for progressively larger and more complex operations. The Electromagnetic Systems Advanced Technology program addresses Radio Frequency (RF) technology for Surface and Aerospace Surveillance sensors and systems, Electronic Warfare (EW) sensors and systems, RF Communication Systems, Multi-Function sensor systems, and Position, Navigation and Timing (PNT) capabilities. Activities and efforts in this Program Element (PE) address technologies critical to enabling the transformation of discrete functions to network centric warfare capabilities, which simultaneously perform Radar, EW, and Communications and Network functions across platforms through multiple, simultaneous and continuous communications/data links. Today's Sailors and Marines are enabled by Naval Science and Technology (S&T). Since 1946, the Office of Naval Research (ONR) has fostered scientific research related to the maintenance of maritime superiority and national defense. ONR manages the Department of the Navy's (DON) portfolio of naval Basic and Applied research, and Advanced Technology Development investments to ensure naval forces can effectively deter conflict, but when called upon, fight, win and come home safe. Current investments hedge against uncertainty, providing solutions to commanders today, and options for the future. The Naval S&T budget supports higher guidance defined by the National Defense Strategy, and responds to requirements identified by the Secretary of the Navy through research priorities set by the Chief of Naval Research, coordinated across the Naval Research Enterprise (NRE), and outlined in the Naval R&D Framework. This PE funds Advanced Technology Development (ATD) that includes development of subsystems and components and efforts to integrate subsystems and components into system prototypes for field experiments and/or tests in a simulated environment. Efforts in this PE generally have Technology Readiness Levels (TRL) of 4 (component and/or breadboard validation in laboratory environment.), 5 (component and/or breadboard validation in relevant environment.), or 6 (system/subsystem model or prototype demonstration in a relevant environment). Due to the number of efforts in this PE, the programs described herein are representative of the work included in this PE.
Mission — Electromagnetic Systems Advanced Technology
Work in this project addresses cost-effective Radio Frequency (RF) technology for Surface and Aerospace Surveillance sensors and systems, Electronic Warfare (EW) sensors and systems, RF Communication Systems, Multi-Function sensor systems, and Position, Navigation and Timing (PNT) capabilities.

Justification
Accomplishments & Planned Programs (2)
Electronic and Electromagnetic Systems
The overarching objective of the Electronic and Electromagnetic Systems Activity is to develop, test, and demonstrate Communications, Electronic Attack (EA), Electronic Surveillance (ES), Electronic Warfare (EW), and Radar functions. A portion of this Program Element (PE) is devoted to mid-term technology development in close concert with acquisition programs of record. The products of these efforts are planned for transition at the end of their schedule into the associated acquisition program of record. Technology development is focused on Distributed Electronic Warfare in support of Distributed Maritime Operations. Major thrust within the Electronics and Electromagnetic Systems program are: a) Advanced EW Enabling Technologies - Develop classified advanced electronic warfare technology in support of current and predicted capability requirements.
Global Positioning System (GPS) and Navigation Technology
The overarching objective of this activity is to develop technologies that enable the development of affordable, effective and robust Position, Navigation and Timing (PNT) capabilities using non-Global Positioning System (GPS) navigation devices, or atomic clocks. This activity will increase the operational effectiveness of U.S. Naval units. The focus is on the mitigation of GPS electronic threats, the development of atomic clocks that possess unique long-term stability and precision, and the development of compact, low-cost, Inertial Navigation Systems (INS).

Follow the dollar
No follow-the-dollar view — this program's awards haven't been crosswalked at high confidence (flows cover 312 of 1,938 programs). why coverage is partial? →
Awards
No awards are linked to this program element at high or medium 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.
Oversight
Department-level designation (not specific to this program)
GAO lists 5 high-risk areas for DOD as a whole. That designation covers the department, not Electromagnetic Systems Advanced Technology. No program-specific GAO finding for this line is in the ingested data. See the DOD oversight record.
Program dossier
No research dossier for this program — dossiers cover 50 of 1,938 programs, the largest fully J-book-detailed lines by FY2026 requested dollars. why no dossier here? →
