The
Office
of
Naval
Research
(ONR)
coordinates,
executes,
and
promotes
the
science
and
technology
programs
of
the
United
States
Navy
and
Marine
Corps.
Office
of
Research:
The Office
of
Research portfolio
makes
broad
investments
in
basic
and
applied
research
that
will
increase
fundamental
knowledge,
foster
opportunities
for
breakthroughs
and
provide
technology
options
for
future
naval
capabilities
and
systems.
Office
of
Research
programs
nurture
creativity
and
seek
a
balance
between
risk,
opportunity
and
potential
naval
impact.
Office
of
Technology:
Transition
of
technologies
to
the
fleet
and
acquisition
are
top
priorities.
ONR
emphasizes
transition
centric
programs
and
methodologies
under
the
Office
of
Technology
including
efforts
covering
manufacturing
methods
used
to
build
naval
warfare
systems,
programs
that
stimulate
advantageous
government-industry
partnerships,
and
an
investment
portfolio
focusing
on
requirements
pull
by
the
fleet
and
acquisition.
Research
priorities
identified
in
the
Naval
Research
and
Development
Framework
align
the
Office
of
Naval
Research's
science
and
technology
investments
across
six
Integrated
Research
Portfolios
(IRPs),
listed
below.
Amphibious
Expeditionary
Maneuver
Enables
strategically
agile
and
tactically
flexible
Marine
Air
Ground
Task
Forces
with
naval
capability
to
project
power
to
and
from
the
littorals
and
conduct
operations
ashore.
Information,
Cyber
and
Spectrum
Superiority
An
increasingly
interconnected
force
with
more
rapid
and
effective
decision-making
is
enabled
by
persistent
sensing,
advanced
data
analytics,
digital
integration
and
assured
spectrum
access.
Mission
Capable,
Persistent
and
Survivable
Sea
Platforms
Concepts,
systems
and
component
technologies
that
improve
the
performance
and
survivability
of
naval
ships/submarines
in
an
increasingly
distributed
yet
interconnected
force.
Aviation,
Force
Projection
and
Integrated
Defense
Sea-based
aviation,
including
platform
and
weapons
research
is
focused
on
new
or
enhanced
capabilities
to
defend
against,
and/or
deter,
disable,
damage,
defeat
or
destroy
adversaries
at
extended
ranges
and
speeds.
Undersea
Battlespace
and
Maritime
Domain
Access
Enables
maritime
domain
access
for
naval
forces
to
operate
in
contested
ocean
environments
through
undersea
threat
neutralization
and
maritime
battlespace
awareness.
Warfighter
Supremacy
People
underpin
all
missions.
Advances
in
autonomy,
human-machine
teaming,
command
and
control,
training
and
education,
human
performance
optimization,
protective
equipment,
medicine,
neurosciences,
and
bio-engineered
systems
will
ensure
their
advantage.
