Description
Description — Integ Combat System Test Facility
The 2960 Line Item (LI) is shared between the Strike Force Interoperability (SFI) and Shipboard Electronic Systems Evaluation Facilities (SESEF)programs. This program supports various Navy Land Based Test Sites (LBTS) required to support integration and interoperability testing. Sites include, but are not limited to, Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Dahlgren, Surface Combat System Center (SCSC) Wallops Island, Naval Information Warfare Center Pacific, and NSWC Dam Neck. This funding also supports the Shipboard Electronic Systems Evaluation Facilities (SESEF) Program for the procurement, installation for upgrades and modernization to provide electromagnetic system test and evaluation services to afloat and shore commands for development of new and upgraded systems, to validate system performance following new construction and overhaul, and to provide real-time assessment of material readiness in an operational environment. The United States Navy has a requirement to fully test and certify computer programs for maturity, Interoperability and Integration (I&I) prior to delivery to the Fleet. Commander, U.S. Fleet Forces Command (CUSFFC) provided specific direction to develop a unified modernization process and certify all combat system baselines for integration and interoperability as an integral step in the Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) Optimized Fleet Response Plan (OFRP). Various Navy facilities, serving as LBTS, conduct the required testing in support of CVN, DDG, LCS, DDG 1000, CG, LHD, LHA, LPD 17 and LSD class ships. These sites also comprise the Navy's Distributed Integration & Interoperability Assessment Capability (DIIAC) (supported through the use of JMETC network) alliance, which performs Interoperability Assessment and Systems Engineering Events (SEEs) for deploying Strike Groups. These facilities also provide combat system in-service support to respond to emergent fleet problems. This capability tests and certifies new combat system baselines in a lab-based environment, which has significantly reduced the cost of corrective action and shifted the burden of problem discovery away from the operator at sea. It also provides support to the acquisition community to conduct interoperability (shift to the left) testing earlier in the acquisition cycle. As existing systems experience parts obsolescence issues and tech refresh updates, the LBTS must procure and install existing test beds to accurately replicate the Command, Control, Communication, Computer, Combat System and Intelligence (C5I) configuration that is designed for the fleet. In addition, new combat systems architectures are under development for new ship classes such as FFGs, as well as new Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) variants of legacy suites. Procurement of production representative systems of these IaaS combat systems being delivered to operational fleet units is critical to ensure that testing and subsequent certification of both current and newly installed combat systems is in accordance with NAVSEAINST 9410.2 Naval Warfare Systems Certification Policy (NWSCP) and the Optimized Fleet Response Plan (O-FRP). The basic procurement outlined herein is directed at expanding various facilities' capability to support Interoperability Integration and Stressful Endurance testing. Procurement requirements are directly tied to the interoperability testing schedule and establish independence between test beds allowing for parallel certification efforts. Procurements are required to build the necessary test beds and for laboratory support equipment. Transition to use of Virtual Test Environments will improve lab reliability while reducing lab support costs. This budget procures lab support equipment that ensures various facilities are able to support the new tactical subsystems, and new communications paths impacting interoperability, that use Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) equipment. In addition, the basic program provides for equipment/upgrades for the Navy's Distributed Integration & Interoperability Assessment Capability (DIIAC) needed to conduct interoperability assessment testing. The DIIAC consists of 23 land-based sites networked to certify computer programs prior to their delivery to the fleet and provides support to the acquisition community to conduct interoperability and integration (shift to the left) testing earlier in the acquisition cycle. Interoperability Assessment is required for all deploying strike groups per the Joint Fleet Instruction. The Shipboard Electronic Systems Evaluation Facilities (SESEF) are Navy owned and operated test sites located near heavy fleet concentrated areas and strategic Forward Deployed Naval Forces Sites. The SESEF Program mission is to provide electromagnetic systems test and evaluation services to afloat and shore commands for upgraded systems, to validate system performance following new construction and overhaul/availability, and to provide real-time assessment of material readiness in an operational environment. [P40A / M8400 - SESEF Electronic Equipment]: The Shipboard Electronic Systems Evaluation Facilities (SESEF) are Navy owned and operated test sites located near heavy fleet concentrated areas and strategic Forward Deployed Naval Forces Sites. The SESEF Program mission is to provide electromagnetic systems test and evaluation services to afloat and shore commands for upgraded systems, to validate system performance following new construction and overhaul/availability, and to provide real-time assessment of material readiness in an operational environment. Also provided are: system modernization and integration, system and equipment component procurement and software (S/W) upgrades for test systems to include, but not limited to, Tactical Control and Navigation (TACAN), Antenna Radiation Pattern (ARP) systems, Identification Friend or Foe (IFF), Direction Finder (DF)/Radio Direction Finder (RDF), LINK 11/16/22, Electronic Warfare/Electronic Attack (EW/EA) and HF/VHF/UHF communication systems, including secure voice. SESEFs are used to effectively conduct TACAN certifications, AN/SLQ-32 Electronic Warfare (EW) Planned Maintenance System (PMS) requirements checks, Ship Signals Exploitation Equipment (SSEE) calibrations and PMS checks, and to detect and to isolate shipboard system deficiencies leading to maintenance action to increase ship material readiness at the completion of construction, delivery availabilities, during routine ship operations, and prior to deployment. FY26 increase is to support upgrade of test ranges to meet AN/SLQ-32 (V)6 & (V)7 testing requirements and upgrades to various data links to ensure systems are fully mission capable for Fleet operations. This funding is associated with initial spares funding line JC2M8 Integrated Combat System Test Facility (J2960). [P40A / M8500 - Interoperability Assessment Equipment]: M8500 - Interoperability assessment equipment known as Distributed Integration & Interoperability Assessment Capability (DIIAC) procures upgrades to support the 23 sites that comprise the Navy's DIIAC sites. Procures hardware that provides the DIIAC Operations Center (DOC) the ability to support monitoring and execution of events providing data collection and distribution. Funds are also allocated for site upgrades to meet current standards and allow scalability for DIIAC requirements; and, in addition, to enable the DIIAC to maintain efficiency and product improvement to interface with other Joint communities using Joint Mission Environment Test Community (JMETC) network. Focused on the force-level impact of new systems and platforms under development, the DIIAC supports testing that ensures Commander, Naval Sea System Command/Program Executive Offices (NAVSEA/PEOs) are delivering mature and interoperable warfare systems at the Platform and Strike Group levels, with NAVSEA providing Strike Force Interoperability Certification and Assessments. This is the only such testing of combat systems and Command, Control, Communication, Computer, Combat System and Intelligence (C5I) configuration items prior to shipboard delivery for operational use. Funding increase from FY24-FY25 noted in Footnotes.

The FY 2026 request was reduced by $1.079 million for Advisory and Assistance Services to promote efficiencies and advance the policies of the Administration in alignment with Executive Order 14222, "Implementing the President's Department of Government Efficiency Cost Efficiency Initiative." Funding for procurements and installations for upgrades and modernization of the eight operational sites and mobile trailers across the AORs to support the Shipboard Electronic Systems Evaluation Facility (SESEF). Increase of $4.78M from FY25 to FY26 is for procurement of testing equipment for the AN/SLQ-32 (V)6 & (V)7 upgrades at all fixed and mobile sites to ensure systems are fully mission capable for Fleet operations.
