- Office of Naval Research Sea-based Aviation: A National Naval
Responsibility (NNR) Dr. Thomas J. Beutner, SES Director for
Aerospace Sciences Research Division Air Warfare and Weapons
Department (Code 35) Office of Naval Research (ONR)
- Slide 2
- To allow ONR to maintain the health/currency/technical
superiority of identified Navy- unique S&T in order that: 1. A
robust U.S. research capability to work on long term S&T
problems of interest to the Department of the Navy is sustained; 2.
An adequate pipeline of new scientists and engineers in disciplines
of unique Navy importance is maintained; and 3. ONR can continue to
provide the S&T products necessary to ensure future superiority
in integrated naval warfare.
- Slide 3
- (1) Baseline capability of focus area; (2) Program funding and
funding trends; (3) Scope of naval responsibility; (4) Scope,
degree and stability of non-Navy funding sponsors; (5) Performer
base (academia, government, industry); (6) Infrastructure (focus
area leadership); (7) Knowledge-base pipeline (graduate and
post-doctoral programs); (8) Facilities and equipment (ships, test
tanks, etc.); (9) Integration with and/or transition to higher
category programs ONR must ensure U.S. world leadership in these
few unique areas through research, recruitment and education, to
maintain an adequate base of talent and sustain critical
infrastructure for research and experimentation. Nomination as NNR
S&T areas identified as candidates for NNR status will undergo
a detailed review and assessment by a special review board. The
program will be assessed in the areas of:
- Slide 4
- Data Call Support The following questions support our data
call. 1.Identify S&T areas currently addressed by your
organization which support Sea-based Aviation. 2.Comment on
adequacy of your investments/programs to address technical gaps for
future Sea Based Aviation requirements or concepts. 3.Identify
critical S&T facilities or test resources in your organization
which support Sea Based Aviation.
