(U) A. Mission Description and Budget Item Justification:

This program is designed to rapidly transition development efforts in the science and technology base directly to warfighting commands. Projects are directly responsive to operational requirements for improved battle management, communications, theater missile defense (TMD), and surveillance capability. Takes advantage of advanced technology developments throughout the services and industry as well as off-the-shelf technology. The program also defines system architectures and develops communications technology for modernization and improving the Air Force portion of the Tri-Service communications networks which the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) oversees. This research is in Category 4, Demonstration and Validation, because its products are primarily advanced development models, rapid prototype efforts, and software developed through evolutionary acquisition methods.

(U) Acquisition Strategy:

All major contracts within this Program Element were awarded after full open competition. (When restricted technologies are involved, foreign competition is not allowed.) Most contracts are of the cost plus fixed fee (CPFF) type, but when it is deemed appropriate by procurement officials, award fee contracts or firm-fixed price contracts are utilized.
