In today's military environment ships, systems, and equipment are being asked to perform at levels not thought possible a decade ago. The intent is to improve process operations and equipment reliability, availability, and maintainability without costly upgrades. Of course, these gains must be achieved without impacting combat readiness. Downsizing is also taking its toll on operations. Loss o ...

The ultimate goal of the proposed R&D is to design, develop and validate innovative CORBA-based software security services and compatible hardware architectures which provide high assurance for multi-level secure (MLS) network applications. The proposed approach is innovative in that it is based on the emerging OMG Security Services Specification (SSS) plus a proprietary technique for maintaining ...

The LCAC Full-Mission Trainer (FMT) is providing a cost-effective tool for training LCAC operators in normal craft operation and casualty mode conditions. However, the FMT was never validated with full-scale LCAC test data. Rather, the feel of the FMT was uning coefficients in response to inputs obtained from experienced LCAC operators. The FMT training schedule combined wi ...

Chesapeake Sciences Corporation, under contract to the Navy (NUWC) for development of a Towed Active Receive System (TARS) telemetry, proposes to study the application of the TARS telemetry to support the stated goals including commonalty with both surface ship and submarine platforms, affordability, and maximum application of previously developed commercial and Navy technology to towed array ...

The towed array capabilities of the US Navy combine high reliability, high channel count, long aperture and low self noise to provide an underwater acoustic superiority not matched by any other Navy. This superiority has also brought with it unwanted high production costs for these arrays. The next generation of Naval towed arrays with increasingly larger aperture may be out of the reach of a cos ...
