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.

Description
Mission — Ocean Engineering Tech Dev
Developments in this program will enable the U.S. Navy to overcome deficiencies that constrain manned diving operations in several critical areas such as submarine rescue, recovery, salvage, underwater ship husbandry, underwater construction and naval special operations. This program develops biomedical technology, diver life support equipment, and the systems, tools, and procedures to permit manned underwater operations and enhance diver performance and safety.
Mission — Deep Submergence Bio Med Dev
This project: 1) Develops advanced biomedical and bioengineering technology for medical and life support enhancement to decrease submariner deaths and permanent injury in a disabled submarine (DISSUB) and during submarine escape and rescue; 2) Conducts research for diver health, safety, and effectiveness to increase understanding of human performance and enhanced diver stress management and survivability in high stress environments such as in cold/warm water and at altitude. This project also validates and improves the accuracy of assumptions associated with equipment testing and certification, diving procedures, and diver biomedical physiology. Deliverables for DISSUB include: medical guidance/procedures increasing submariner survivability for submarine escape and rescue (including new Submarine Rescue Diving and Recompression System (SRDRS)), life support parameters, medical procedures for life support; exposure and mitigation guidance for atmospheric contaminants, high levels of oxygen and/or carbon dioxide; prevention and treatment of decompression sickness and pulmonary oxygen toxicity; and senior survivor expert decision system. Deliverables for diver health and safety include: decompression guidance in extreme environment diving with various breathing mixtures, temperatures, durations, and altitudes; exposure guidance for oxygen breathing; diver performance guidance based on physiological effects of diving; enhanced underwater swimming efficiency; enhanced diver thermal protection; collection of operational diving depth/time profiles to predict decompression risk, and exposure and mitigation guidance for divers experiencing underwater continuous noise, impulse noise, or underwater blast.

Mission — Shallow Depth Diving EQ
(Diving - N97) This project develops systems to support submarine escape and rescue missions, and conventional diver operations. Diver operations include ship husbandry, salvage/recovery, and submarine rescue operations to support national, as well as Navy, needs around the world. Modern certifiable diving systems that ensure diver safety and allow maximum work efficiency will replace currently antiquated systems. R&D will be performed in the areas of diver tools to improve work efficiency, tracking and navigation, visual enhancement, contaminated water diving, diver environmental protection, and recompression chamber technology. (Submarine Escape and Rescue - N97) The modernization of Submarine Rescue System (SRS) is required to address known reliability and obsolescence issues and support the planned minimum 15 year system service life extension prior to SRS's end of life and inoperability. (Diving - N95) This project develops systems to support Naval Expeditionary Combat Command Diving. Operations include salvage/recovery and underwater construction to support national, as well as Navy, needs around the world. Modern certifiable diving systems that ensure diver safety and allow maximum work efficiency will replace currently antiquated systems. R&D will be performed in the areas of diver tools to improve work efficiency, tracking and navigation, visual enhancement, contaminated water diving, diver environmental protection and recompression chamber technology.
