SOFWERX – NSWC Surface Systems Combat Diving Technical Experimentation

USSOCOM Naval Special Warfare Command (NSWC) is accepting technology experimentation submissions to explore emerging technologies, technical applications, and their potential to provide solutions for NSWC surface systems/combat diving-related operations. They are holding a Technical Experimentation event 04-08 December 2023.

The command is interested in the following technology areas:

-Command, Control, Communications and Computers (C4) and Intelligence Surveillance Reconnaissance (ISR) systems. Provide users with futuristic and maximum technological capabilities to include cyber defense.

-Diving systems focused on providing innovative commercial “off the shelf” capabilities. This technical experiment is seeking technologies which can securely and reliably send and receive digital data, audio, audio/video, and high-resolution imagery over the horizon and on-the-move, amongst divers in the water column, as well as interoperate with maritime/joint-forces on both surface and submerged platforms.

-Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USV) and Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUV). Capable of over the horizon endurance and operating in a near peer environment. Candidate systems should be capable of autonomous (Level 4 or greater) operation and carrying sensors/payloads.

-Combatant craft and Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (UUV) underwater communications.

-Maritime Alternative Position, Navigation, and Timing (ALT PNT)
