It supports the “[Chief of Naval Operations’] vision of aNavy that swarms the sea, delivering synchronized lethal and non-lethal efforts from near andfar, on every axis and in every domain” (NAE, 2021, p. 2). The guidance emphasizesprevailing the Great Power Competition, generating future readiness, and revolutionizingtraining as key to the NAE’s future.The Navy Aviation Vision 2030-2035 further identifies technology focus areas essential toachieving the objectives. As described in the Future Technologies section, key technologiesfor research, development, and deployment include:Radio Frequency (RF) and Infrared (IR) signature reduction technologiesImportant PostsSLAMR Participant Resource Guide(PDF)DoD Science and TechnologyLaboratories$656 Billion Invested in R&D in 2019Follow Team NPSNaval Surface and Undersea WarfareCenters Overview (PDF)Recent PostsCall for R&D Proposals - JDDE Program  |   February 24, 2022Do you know your U.S. DoD laboratories?  |   February 6, 2022Updated U.S. Defense Technology FocusAreas Announced   |   February 3, 2022What's the next big question in ArtificialIntelligence?   |   January 27, 2022Dimensions of Autonomous Decision-Making   |   January 24, 2022Human-AI Teaming: State of the Art andResearch Needs   |   January 4, 2022Chart of DoD Cybersecurity Policies  |   November 4, 2021Now This is Collaboration!   |   November 2, Search SLAMR!

Unmanned AirSystems (UAS) will fill diverse roles in the future air wing and the distributed surfaceFleet in missions such as refueling, communications relay, logistics, airborneelectronic attack, strike, and [Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance andTargeting (ISR&T)].The MQ-25 will be the Navy’s first aircraft carrier-based unmanned platform and willincrease the lethality and reach of the [carrier air wing] as a tanker with a secondary[Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance] role.The MQ-4C Triton achieved Early Operational Capability (EOC) in January 2020,delivering persistent maritime ISR&T through human-machine and autonomousteaming. It is on schedule to achieve Initial Operational Capability (IOC) in 2023.When paired with mission management tools, such as Minotaur with IFC 4 Multi-INTconfiguration, Triton will provide sensor agility to locate, track, classify, identify, andreport on targets of interest.The MQ-8C Fire Scout unmanned aerial system will deploy for the first time in thenear future with an advanced RADAR, Link 16, and the Minotaur mission system.Materiel and non-materiel solutions are being advanced to enhance interoperabilitybetween the MQ-8, MH-60, and Littoral Combat Ship. Incorporation of Link 16messaging—as well as integration of Minotaur—will increase organic targetingcapabilities for the distributed surface Fleet and improve battlespace awareness.Increased speed and range – Propulsion solutions that provide increased speed, range,and endurance while simultaneously providing power and cooling to advanced missionsystems (i.e., variable cycle engines).Long-range, high-capacity, and hypersonic weapons – Next generation weapons mustnot only extend the air-to-air and surface-to-air reach, but also defeat bothmaneuvering air targets and surface-to-air defenses. This can be accomplishedthrough increased kinematics (i.e., hypersonic) and/or other disruptive technologiessuch as directed energy weapons.Decreased decision-making timelines – Drive simplicity into tactics by incorporatingautomation, optimal crew vehicle interfaces, and teamed manned/unmanned forcesthat exploit Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML).Electromagnetic Maneuver Warfare (EMW) capabilities – The ability to counter enemykill chains and air defense systems.Cyber capabilities – The ability to counter enemy cyber effects while enhancing cybercapabilities and platforms.Advanced networks – A Naval Tactical Grid (NTG) that is resilient with survivablewaveforms.FORD Class aircraft carriers – Designed to support these and other technologies wellinto the future (NAE, 2021, pp. 6-7).In addition to the details in the Navy Aviation Vision 2030-2035, the Naval Air Warfare CenterTraining Systems Division 2021 Research Compendium offers insights into R&D work beingdone in training, human performance, and modeling and simulation by the NAE.
