BACKGROUND
Purpose of the Bill
This bill makes appropriations for the military functions
of the Department of Defense for the period October 1, 2012,
through September 30, 2013. Functional areas include the pay,
allowances, and support of military personnel, operation and
maintenance of the forces, procurement of equipment and
systems, and research, development, test and evaluation.
Appropriations for foreign military assistance, military
construction, family housing, nuclear weapons programs, and
civil defense are provided in other bills.
Hearings
The Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense began hearings
on March 7, 2012, and concluded them on June 13, 2012, after
nine separate sessions. The subcommittee heard testimony from
representatives of the Department of Defense, other Federal
agencies, representatives of organizations, and the public. In
addition to these hearings, the subcommittee held four
classified briefings with the regional Combatant Commanders and
Commander of U.S. Special Operations Command.
Summary of the Bill
The Committee recommendation of $596,644,000,000 includes
funding to develop, maintain, and equip the military forces of
the United States in nonemergency appropriations.
The fiscal year 2013 budget request for activities funded
in the Department of Defense appropriations bill totals
$596,799,298,000 in new budget authority, including
$88,210,745,000 in contingency funding and $514,000,000 in
mandatory spending.
In fiscal year 2012, the Congress appropriated
$622,862,127,000 for activities funded in this bill. This
amount includes $507,896,492,000 in nonemergency appropriations
and $114,965,635,000 in overseas contingency operations
appropriations.
The Committee recommendation in this bill is
$26,218,127,000 below the amount provided in fiscal year 2012
and $155,298,000 below the amount requested for fiscal year
2013. The Committee recommends that $254,461,000 requested for
Coast Guard activities be appropriated directly to the
Department of Homeland Security.

DEFENSE BUDGET OVERVIEW
Due to budget reductions mandated by the Budget Control
Act, the Department of Defense was required to reduce its
planned spending over the next decade. The Committee fully
supports efforts to bring down the Nation's deficit but is
concerned about the Department's approach to meet the targets
set in the Budget Control Act. The Committee believes that
instead of correcting years of poor fiscal discipline, the
Department chose to make substantial reductions in force
structure and take risk in meeting U.S. military commitments
around the globe. Over the past several years, Congress has
sustained the current force structure while finding tens of
billions of dollars in annual savings by scrutinizing the
budget request and removing funds from troubled programs,
duplicative requests, and overstatement of certain funding
requirements.
The Committee believes that when the Department decided to
combine the program and budget review during the Planning,
Programming and Budgeting Execution [PPBE] process, the Under
Secretary of Defense, Comptroller and the Comptroller staff's
ability to exercise oversight of the budget was lost. This lack
of oversight within the Department must be corrected.
Not only is fiscal discipline lacking in the budget
request, the Committee is concerned about the above threshold
reprogrammings that the Department submits to Congress. The
Committee understands fact of life changes will occur after the
budget is approved by Congress and provides significant
flexibility in general and special transfer authority to
account for these unanticipated changes. However, the number of
reprogrammings, dollar amounts, and significant increase of
requests to start new programs outside the normal budget cycle
that do not receive the same level of oversight, scrutiny and
documentation, is disconcerting.
The Committee strongly urges the Secretary of Defense to
address these issues when building future budget requests to
ensure the Department is utilizing funds efficiently and not
requesting funds that cannot be spent in the year of execution,
instead of proposing reductions to needed force structure.
In the fiscal year 2013 defense budget, the Committee takes
the same approach as prior years and makes funding adjustments
to correct for lax budgeting. This funding is redirected to:
(1) restore significant portions of force structure; (2) fund
items that were identified as shortfalls or as combat losses by
the Department after the budget was submitted; (3) fund
increases authorized in S. 3254, National Defense Authorization
Act for Fiscal Year 2013, as reported; and (4) fund various
Committee initiatives that are addressed in further detail
later in the report.
Force Structure.--For the Department of the Army, the
Committee recommends more than $700,000,000 for Army aviation
to replace combat losses, procure additional helicopters that
were reduced in the request, and upgrade existing helicopters.
The Committee includes more than $200,000,000 for Abrams Tanks
and the Improved Recovery Vehicle and nearly $200,000,000 to
address field requirements for additional Patriot missiles.
For the Department of the Navy, the Committee does not
concur with the recommendation to prematurely retire nine Navy
ships and provides over $2,300,000,000 to man, operate, equip,
and modernize these ships. In addition, the Committee provides
over $770,000,000 for advance procurement of a tenth Virginia-
class submarine, $1,000,000,000 for an additional DDG-51
destroyer, and $263,255,000 for advance procurement of an
amphibious warship. These funds were not included in the budget
request, but the Committee believes these ships are crucial to
supporting our Navy's global requirements, particularly as the
U.S. military shifts its focus to the Pacific. These and other
Navy shipbuilding adjustments are discussed in more detail
later in the report. The Committee also provides $60,000,000
for advance procurement for 15 additional EA-18Gs to reverse
the Navy's decision to end production of these aircraft.
For the Department of the Air Force, in recognition of
Title XVII of S. 3254, National Defense Authorization Act for
Fiscal Year 2013, as reported, which pauses Air Force force
structure movements for 1 year until a National Commission
conducts a study of the current structure and makes
recommendations to Congress on modifications to this force, the
Committee provides over $800,000,000 to fund the 1-year
moratorium. The Committee directs that none of the funds made
available by this act will be used to make proposed force
structure adjustments, unless the Committee has approved the
Air Force proposal elsewhere in this act, until after the
National Commission's recommendations are provided to the
congressional defense committees.
In addition, the Committee reverses the Air Force's request
to terminate the Space Test Program and Operationally
Responsive Space Program and includes $135,000,000 to continue
these initiatives. Finally, the Committee includes a provision
requiring the Department to complete the execution of funds
previously authorized and appropriated for Global Hawk Block 30
and C-27J aircraft instead of sending these new, highly capable
aircraft into storage as the Air Force proposed.
For the Missile Defense Agency, the Committee recommends
additional funds for programs that were reduced in the fiscal
year 2013 budget request, including $163,000,000 for an
additional AN-TPY 2 radar and $189,000,000 for additional SM-3
Block 1B interceptors.
Shortfalls Identified After the Budget Submission.--The
Committee provides substantial funds throughout the act to
cover shortfalls identified by Department of Defense officials
subsequent to the budget submission. Some examples include:
$964,500,000 to mitigate projected fiscal year 2013 shortfalls
for fuel and second destination transportation costs;
$392,000,000 for the military personnel accounts; $293,000,000
for Operation and Maintenance, Navy for increased aircraft
carrier, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance assets,
and mine countermeasure ships presence in the U.S. Central
Command Area of Responsibility; $150,000,000 to repair damage
on the USS Miami; $211,000,000 for Israel's Iron Dome program;
and $142,200,000 for High Definition Full Motion Video
capability for U.S. Special Operations Command. In addition,
the Committee provides $1,000,000,000 for National Guard and
Reserve Equipment to help alleviate a $37,000,000,000 equipment
shortfall identified by the Reserve Component.
Increases Authorized in S. 3254, as Reported.--Aside from
supporting the force structure adjustments included in S. 3254,
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013, as
reported, the Committee also provides $273,000,000 to restore
proposed TRICARE fee increases denied in S. 3254; $200,000,000
for the Rapid Innovation Program; $50,000,000 for additional
intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance for Operation
Observant Compass; $30,000,000 for the Industrial Base
Innovation Fund; $59,100,000 for the Office of the Inspector
General; additional amounts for a classified program; and funds
for several other authorized increases.
With all these adjustments, the Committee paid special
attention to avoid levying bills on the Department of Defense
in future years. In many instances, the Committee provides
sufficient funds to pay down future requirements for
modernizing and buying new platforms and equipment, replacing
losses sustained in combat, or providing funds for shortfalls
that the Department would have to reprogram during fiscal year
2013. The Committee believes that the adjustments made to the
budget request will help improve financial management while
ensuring that our men and women in uniform and their families
are provided the best support and equipment the Nation can
offer during these challenging economic times.
CLASSIFIED PROGRAM ADJUSTMENTS
The Committee recommends adjustments to certain classified
programs, as explained in the classified annex to the
Committee's report.
Definition of Program, Project and Activity
In fiscal year 2013, for purposes of the Balanced Budget
and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 (Public Law 99-177),
as amended, the term ``program, project and activity'' for
appropriations contained in this act shall be defined as the
most specific level of budget items identified in the
Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2013 and the P-1 and
R-1 budget justification documents as subsequently modified by
congressional action. The following exception to the above
definition shall apply: for the military personnel and
operation and maintenance accounts the term ``program, project
and activity'' is defined as the appropriations accounts
contained in the Department of Defense Appropriations Act.
In carrying out any Presidential sequestration, the
Department of Defense and agencies shall conform to the
definition for ``program, project and activity'' set forth
above.
Committee Initiatives
The Committee has included funding above the President's
budget request for several programmatic initiatives which the
Committee believes are of inherent value for national defense.
In several cases, funds are restored for programs which were
included in previous Department of Defense budget requests, and
several are for programs that the Committee believes are
necessary to improve defense even though they have not been
included under the request formulated by the Department of
Defense. For instance, the Committee provides additional
research funding in the following areas: alternative energy,
space situational awareness, unexploded ordnance and landmine
detection, nanotechnology, advanced metals and materials,
military burn treatment, and traumatic brain injury and
psychological health. The Committee believes additional
research funding is warranted in these and other areas to
ensure that the Department of Defense continues to pursue
technological advances that are critical to our national
defense. The Committee has also provided funding for programs
that are chronically underfunded, such as test and training
range upgrades and range conservation. The Committee directs
that funding for these initiatives are to be competitively
awarded or provided to programs that have received competitive
awards in the past.
Ship Modernization, Operations and Sustainment Fund.--The
Department of Defense's 2012 defense strategy (``Sustaining
U.S. Global Leadership: Priorities for 21st Century Defense'')
calls for a ``rebalance toward the Asia-Pacific region'';
however, the Navy's fiscal year 2013 budget submission includes
a proposal to prematurely retire seven cruisers and two dock
landing ships in the next 2 years. The Committee is concerned
with this proposed elimination of force structure and believes
it is disconnected from the defense strategy, creates future
unaffordable shipbuilding requirements, and exacerbates force
structure shortfalls that negatively impact the Department's
ability to meet Combatant Commander requirements.
The Committee is troubled by the impact that the proposed
premature retirement of these ships will have on the
Department's strategic realignment toward the Asia-Pacific
region. Specifically, the Committee is concerned about the
operational impact of this reduction in force structure on the
balance of the Fleet as it attempts to meet requirements in the
Asia-Pacific, as well as demands in the Middle East and other
parts of the world. In addition, the Committee notes that with
one exception, the cruisers proposed for premature retirement
were slated to receive ballistic missile defense capability
that has already proven of significant operational relevance
and that the elimination of this capability creates further
strain on the Department's ability to meet Combatant Commander
requirements.
In addition, the Committee believes that prematurely
retiring capable and relevant ships following an initial
investment of no less than $11,600,000,000 in current fiscal
year 2012 dollars creates unnecessary and unaffordable future
shipbuilding requirements. The Committee notes that current
fiscal pressures on the Navy's shipbuilding budget are not
likely to be alleviated prior to the end of the next decade,
when a large number of surface ships are scheduled for
retirement, and significant capital investments will be
required to procure the Ohio class replacement submarine and
the next Ford class aircraft carrier. By the Navy's own
estimates, implementation of the fiscal year 2013 30-year
shipbuilding plan requires a significant and sustained increase
in the Navy's shipbuilding budget over the next 2 decades.
Absent this funding increase, platforms scheduled to be
procured will be deferred, and the desired force structure will
not be achieved. The Committee notes that over the past 8
years, on average, the Navy's actual ship procurements have
been roughly three platforms less than envisioned in the
respective shipbuilding plans. Therefore, the Committee
questions the wisdom of eliminating force structure with
premature ship retirements.
Finally, the Committee notes that a ship's expected service
life is a significant factor for justifying its extensive up-
front investments. Curtailing ship service lives, as the Navy
is again proposing, calls into question the Department of the
Navy assumptions and specifications when funding new ship
acquisitions. The Committee notes that the nine platforms
proposed for premature retirement have a combined remaining
service life in excess of 120 years, roughly one-third of their
service life, and that the Navy shipbuilding plan does not
include a sufficient quantity of ships to offset the loss of
these platforms. In fact, annual ship procurement will decline
from an average of 10 or more battle ships per year in the two
previous 5-year shipbuilding plans to approximately 8 battle
ships per year in the current 5-year plan.
The Committee has been informed that the Navy still
believes in the operational relevance and capability of these
platforms, and that the decision to request their premature
retirement in the fiscal year 2013 budget request was strictly
driven by fiscal constraints. Therefore, the Committee
recommends denying these proposed premature retirements and
retaining this force structure in its entirety. The Committee
recommends full funding, as identified by the Navy, to man,
operate, sustain, upgrade, equip, and modernize only CG-63, CG-
64, CG-65, CG-66, CG-68, CG-69, CG-73, LSD-41, and LSD-46 in
the Ship Modernization, Operations and Sustainment Fund, as
specified elsewhere in this act. The Committee recommends full
funding for all known requirements only for these platforms for
the next 2 fiscal years, and provides the Secretary of the Navy
the authority to transfer funds from the Ship Modernization,
Operations and Sustainment Fund to the appropriate
appropriation accounts in the year of execution following 30-
day prior notification to the congressional defense committees.
The Committee directs funds to be transferred in accordance
with the requirements identified to the Committee by the Navy
and further directs that any deviation from those requirements
shall be fully and clearly identified to the congressional
defense committees prior to the initiation of any such
transfer. The Committee believes that this approach provides
the fiscal relief required by the Navy to maintain this force
structure and allows the Navy sufficient time to plan and
budget for this force structure in future budget submissions.
Israeli Cooperative Programs.--The fiscal year 2013 budget
request includes $99,836,000 in Research, Development, Test and
Evaluation, Defense-Wide for Israeli Cooperative Programs, a
reduction of $135,864,000 from amounts appropriated in fiscal
year 2012. The Committee has been informed that additional
funds are required in fiscal year 2013 to accelerate the
development and fielding schedules of Israeli Cooperative
Programs in light of evolving threats. Therefore, the Committee
recommends an additional $168,900,000 for Israeli Cooperative
Programs in Research, Development, Test and Evaluation,
Defense-Wide, as specifically detailed elsewhere in this act,
to include $39,200,000 which shall be used only for Low Rate
Initial Production activities as included in the David Sling
Weapon System Project Agreement between the two governments.
Further, the Committee has been informed by the Department
that Israel has additional requirements for the Iron Dome
short-range rocket and mortar defense system that will be
executed over 4 years with a total cost of $680,000,000. The
Department submitted a reprogramming for $70,000,000 to fund
the fiscal year 2012 requirement. The Committee has been
informed that another $211,000,000 can be executed in fiscal
year 2013, which the Committee recommends fully funding in
Procurement, Defense-Wide, as authorized in S. 3254, the
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013, as
reported. The Committee understands that the Secretary of
Defense is committed to requesting the remainder of the
required amount in fiscal years 2014 and 2015 based on an
annual assessment of Israeli security requirements against an
evolving threat.
Directed Requirements.--The Army's fiscal year 2013 budget
request includes no less than a dozen programs justified as
supporting ``Directed Requirements'', which are written and
approved by the Army as an alternative approach to the formal
acquisition requirements process. The Committee notes that
``Directed Requirements'' are not an element of the Department
of Defense Acquisition System, nor are they included in rapid
acquisition authorities and processes established to address
urgent warfighter needs. Given the Army's history of
acquisition failures over the past decade, as documented in the
January 2011 Decker-Wagner Army Acquisition Review, the
Committee is concerned that the Army is seeking ad-hoc, near-
term fixes to its endemic acquisition problems rather than
focusing on acquisition process improvements. The Committee
does not believe that establishing another deviation from the
regular acquisition process is warranted and recommends several
adjustments to programs that are justified as ``Directed
Requirements''.
Network Integration Evaluation [NIE] Transitions.--The
fiscal year 2013 budget request includes $214,270,000 in
Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Army to conduct
semiannual Network Integration Evaluations. The Committee notes
that the Army plans to conduct its fourth and fifth NIEs during
fiscal year 2013 and that valuable lessons have been learned
from previous NIEs. However, concerns about the planning and
execution process remain, to include the governance process for
assessing and selecting technologies to test at the NIE, the
overlap of planning cycles as a result of conducting two NIEs
in a single calendar year, and the manpower and fiscal
resources dedicated to these events. To date, the most
significant outcomes of the NIEs are the termination or
restructures of programs based on performance issues that would
likely have been discovered during those programs' regular test
phase, to include the Nett Warrior in its original
configuration and the Joint Tactical Radio System Ground Mobile
Radio. The Committee is concerned, however, that few
technologies have transitioned from the NIE.
The Committee remains supportive of the Army's NIE and
recommends full funding of the fiscal year 2013 budget request;
however, the Committee may reconsider its position in future
budget years based on the Army's ability to reduce costs and to
transition technologies into the acquisition process through
appropriate processes where warranted. To facilitate near-team
requirements, the Committee recommends transferring $25,000,000
from Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Army to Other
Procurement, Army, as requested by the Army, specifically for
nondevelopmental emerging technologies proven at the NIE. In
addition, the Committee recommends $28,200,000 in Research,
Development, Test and Evaluation, Army for the transition of
promising technologies, particularly those developed by
nontraditional vendors. The Committee directs that none of the
funds from these two funding sources may be obligated or
expended until 30 days after written notification to the
congressional defense committees by the Assistant Secretary of
the Army for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics regarding
the Army's intended use of those funds.
Patriot Modernization.--The fiscal year 2013 budget request
includes $109,978,000 in Research, Development, Test and
Evaluation, Army and $199,565,000 in Missile Procurement, Army
for Patriot modernization, a combined increase of $199,818,000
over amounts appropriated in fiscal year 2012. The Committee
notes that the Patriot modernization acquisition strategy dates
back to 2002 and assumes an Army air and missile defense
portfolio significantly different than the one fielded today.
In recent years, the Army has terminated multiple air and
missile defense programs, to include the Surfaced-Launched
Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missile [SLAMRAAM], Joint Land
Attack Cruise Missile Defense Elevated Netted Sensor [JLENS]
and Medium Extended Air Defense System [MEADS]. In addition,
the Army has added several programs in direct support of the
war effort, including various Counter-Rocket, Artillery, and
Mortar programs and surveillance aerostats.
The Committee notes the lack of an approved Patriot
modernization strategy and further notes that the Army is
currently drafting a Capability Development Document [CDD]
which will likely take no less than 1 year to complete. The
Committee further notes that there is currently neither an Army
Cost Position, nor an Independent Cost Estimate for Patriot
modernization, which will likely be an Acquisition Category I
program. Regardless, the Army has programmed in excess of
$1,000,000,000 for various Patriot modernization initiatives
over the next 5 years, most of which would be awarded under
sole-source contracts. In addition, the Army has unfunded
Patriot modernization requirements, to include the integration
of certain capabilities from the MEADS development program,
which the Department of Defense has identified as potential
candidates for transition to the Army's air and missile defense
architecture. The Committee is concerned that the program lacks
clearly identified requirements, a competitive acquisition
strategy and a full understanding of costs. These are factors
that frequently lead to acquisition failures. Therefore, the
Committee believes it premature to initiate evolutionary
development projects and denies the requested funding increase
in Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Army. The
Committee recommends funding developmental Patriot
modernization efforts at the same level as in the prior fiscal
year. Further, given the warfighter demand for Patriot
capabilities, the Committee recommends an increase in Missile
Procurement, Army of $82,640,000 over amounts appropriated in
fiscal year 2012 for Patriot modernization, and recommends an
additional $194,232,000 in Missile Procurement, Army, for the
procurement of 50 Patriot PAC-3 missiles in fiscal year 2013 in
response to urgent warfighter requirements.
B-52 Combat Network Communications Technology [CONECT].--
The fiscal year 2013 budget request includes no funds in
Aircraft Procurement, Air Force for the B-52 CONECT program of
record due to the Air Force's decision to terminate the
program, and $34,700,000 in Research, Development, Test and
Evaluation, Air Force for a restructured, descoped B-52 CONECT
program. The Committee understands that the Air Force is
reviewing its decision to terminate the program of record in
light of potential requirements of the Global Strike Command.
The Committee further understands that should the Air Force
reverse its decision to terminate B-52 CONECT during the fiscal
year 2014 budget process, prior year funds would be available
to reinstate the program following approval by the
congressional defense committees. The Committee directs that no
funds for B-52 CONECT program of record post-milestone C
activities or a B-52 CONECT restructured program may be
obligated or expended until 30 days after the congressional
defense committees have been briefed on the Air Force's
proposed way ahead, to include certification of full funding of
the proposed program.
Military Intelligence Programs [MIP] Budget Exhibits.--The
Department submits separate classified budget exhibits for the
MIP in a format that differs from and is substandard to the
format for unclassified programs. In many cases, these
classified exhibits present additional detail and supplementary
information to the justification provided in the unclassified
Procurement or Research, Development, Test and Evaluation
[RDT&E] budget exhibits. However, the Committee is concerned
about the classified weapon system acquisition programs that
are not justified in the unclassified Procurement or RDT&E
budget exhibits and are only contained in the classified budget
exhibits. The Financial Management Regulation delineates the
exhibits that are required for weapon system acquisition
programs and does not exclude MIP from this requirement. The
Under Secretary of Defense, Comptroller is directed to ensure
all MIP are properly justified to the congressional defense
committees in accordance with the Financial Management
Regulation.
1002 Accounting Reports.--The Committee believes that
providing the most up-to-date 1002 accounting information to
the congressional defense committees benefits the Department of
Defense. Unfortunately, submission of these reports to the
congressional defense committees has been inconsistent and, in
some cases, inexplicably late. The Committee is aware that the
1002 accounting reports are finalized by the Defense Finance
and Accounting Service and received by the services on the 10th
calendar day of each month. Therefore, the Committee directs
the Assistant Secretaries for Financial Management and
Comptroller of each of the Services as well as the Under
Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) to submit a 1002 accounting
report for each appropriation by the 15th working day of the
month for the previous months' data.
Solar Energy Development.--The Committee directs the
Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of the Interior to
jointly prepare a plan to facilitate solar energy development
on military installations. The plan should be consistent with
the military mission and habitat conservation needs of
disturbed lands on military bases that have been withdrawn from
the public domain. The Committee directs the Secretaries to
submit to the congressional defense and interior committees a
joint report that includes the proposed plan within 120 days of
enactment of this act. If legislation is necessary to implement
the plan, the Committee directs the Secretaries to submit to
Congress a legislative proposal to accompany the plan.
Furthermore, the Committee directs the Deputy Under
Secretary of Defense for Installations and Environment to
provide a report to the congressional defense committees not
later than 180 days after enactment of this act on the
viability or incompatibility of solar energy for Nellis and
Creech Air Force Bases.
Base Security.--The fiscal year 2013 budget request
includes substantial funding for the Department of Defense
[DOD] to continue deployment of separate and incompatible
systems and programs to credential uniform military and DOD
civilian personnel, vendors, contractors, and visitors, and
also electronically manage access to military installations.
The Committee is aware that commercial off-the-shelf solutions
that provide the technical platform and infrastructure, vendor/
contractor enrollment, vetting, credentialing, and access
privilege management program and physical access control system
are in use at over 80 installations at no cost to the
government. Furthermore, the Committee has been informed that
demonstrations are underway which expand this solution to
management of uniform military, DOD civilians, military
retirees, and military dependants.
Therefore, the Committee recommends that the Department
standardize program policy and system requirements for
personnel credentialing and installation access systems. The
program policy and system requirements should recognize and
encourage private sector partnerships utilizing currently
available qualified systems and programs that can avoid
substantial out-year acquisition and sustainment costs. The
Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to report to the
congressional defense committees within 90 days of enactment of
this act, the total funding allocated across the Department for
all personnel credentialing and installation access control
activities in fiscal year 2013 by appropriation, broken down by
systems and programs currently in use, systems and programs
being deployed, systems and programs in research and
development, and the estimated life-cycle cost avoidance to the
Department of utilizing qualified private sector systems and
programs.
Suicide Prevention.--The Committee applauds the efforts of
the Department regarding suicide prevention but shares the
concern of the Secretary of Defense that more can and should be
done to address this tragic situation. Therefore, the Committee
encourages the Office of Suicide Prevention to consider funding
community-based initiatives to include efforts that will assist
Reserve Component Forces and their families after the
transitional healthcare period has ended.

Military Personnel Overview
Reserve Component Budget Reporting.--The Committee
continues its requirement for the Department to provide a
semiannual detailed report to the congressional defense
committees showing transfers between subactivities within the
military personnel appropriation. Reports shall be submitted
not later than 30 days following the end of the second quarter
and 30 days following the end of the fiscal year.
Funding for Identified Shortfalls.--The Committee
recommends an additional $200,000,000 for the Army to address a
shortfall caused by a costlier officer grade mix and
$192,000,000 for the Air Force for a housing privatization
contract award delay from fiscal year 2012 to fiscal year 2013.
Permanent Change of Station [PCS].--Beginning in 2010, the
Department of Defense began an effort to find significant
efficiencies within its budget and continues to pursue
efficiencies in its programs and operations to identify
additional savings. The Committee believes that one area that
has not been addressed and could yield significant savings is
reducing the number of PCS moves by increasing the length of
military tours.
The Department of Defense moves about one-third of all
military servicemembers each year and the average duration time
between PCS moves is about 2 years. The Committee believes that
increasing tour lengths will not only result in cost savings,
but it will also lead to less stress on the force and hardship
on families that are forced to move frequently. In addition,
longer tours will ultimately lead to better performance since
servicemembers will have more time in a specific job before
departing. In order to begin the process of decreasing the
number of PCS moves annually, the Committee recommends a total
reduction of $293,585,000 across the services. This reduction
equates to a 10 percent reduction to operational and rotational
PCS accounts but excludes all PCS moves associated with
accession, training, and separation.
Furthermore, the Committee directs the Under Secretary for
Personnel and Readiness to provide a report to the
congressional defense committees not later than 180 days after
the enactment of this act which lays out a plan for the
Department of Defense to increase the length of tours. The
report should include an analysis on the impact of increased
tour lengths for families, quality of life, and job
performance. It should make recommendations for the services to
implement if increased tour lengths lead to fewer promotion
opportunities and PCS options for servicemembers and their
families serving in hardship locations. Finally, the report
should identify the cost savings associated with increasing
tour lengths.
Unobligated Balances.--A Government Accountability Office
analysis of past year obligation rates shows that the services
continue to underexecute their military personnel accounts. Due
to excess unobligated balances, the Committee recommends a
total reduction of $74,470,000 from the fiscal year 2013
military personnel accounts.
Air National Guard Maintenance Positions.--The Committee
has been informed that an agreement was reached between the Air
National Guard and Pacific Air Forces [PACAF] to continue to
use dual status maintenance technicians to perform maintenance
on the additional four KC-135 aircraft that were transitioned
to PACAF in a prior year Base Realignment and Closure
initiative. This agreement would save the Air Force over
$6,000,000 since the Air Force would not be required to execute
permanent change of station moves for 108 active duty airmen to
perform the mission. This agreement is in jeopardy, however,
due to Resource Management Directive 703 [RMD 703], which
freezes civilian end strength at the fiscal year 2010 level.
The Committee believes that the intent of RMD 703 was to
produce cost savings, not give the services additional bills to
pay. Therefore, the Committee strongly encourages the
Department of Defense to provide exemptions to RMD 703 where
savings can be identified and achieved.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OVERVIEW
Joint Strike Fighter [JSF] Sustainment Costs.--The fiscal
year 2013 budget request includes $302,400,000 for operations
and sustainment of up to 66 production aircraft. The Committee
is concerned with the overall total ownership cost, noting that
operations and sustainment generally ranges from 60-70 percent
of a program's total cost. The Committee notes that in the
December 2011 Selected Acquisition Report [SAR] the total JSF
operations and sustainment cost increased over 10 percent from
$1,113,200,000,000 to $1,221,100,000,000 as compared to the
previous SAR. According to a March 2012 Government
Accountability Office report, ``effectively managing software
and the global supply chain is critical to improving program
outcomes.'' In order to better understand the management of
these critical areas, the Committee directs the Secretary of
Defense to report to the congressional defense committees no
later than 180 days after enactment of this act on the
following: (1) a comprehensive review of sustaining the
engineering workforce to include identifying efficiencies (such
as creating a software engineering task force similar to the F/
A-18 program); (2) a comprehensive review of the supply chain
management construct, to include identifying areas within
supply chain management that are cost drivers; (3) a
sustainment affordability model with cost objectives that drive
costs downward; and (4) a list of the top five cost drivers and
top five risk areas in operations and sustainment.

Arlington National Cemetery.--The budget request proposes
to fund Arlington National Cemetery through three separate
accounts contained in two different appropriations bills for
fiscal year 2013. Although the Committee does not support this
approach, the efforts to correct issues at Arlington National
Cemetery are of utmost importance. Therefore, the Committee
provides authority to spend up to $25,000,000 from within the
funds appropriated for Operation and Maintenance, Army. This
authority is provided for fiscal year 2013 only. The Committee
will not support future requests for Arlington National
Cemetery in the Defense appropriations bill and directs that
future funding requests be contained in the Department of
Defense, Cemeterial Expenses, Army account, which is funded in
the Military Construction, Veterans Affairs, and Related
Agencies appropriations bill.
Fire-Resistant Equipment.--The Committee remains concerned
that deployed forces face excessive risk of burns from exposure
to improvised explosive devices and other threats. While the
Committee commends the Army for providing its vehicle crews
with a comprehensive fire-resistant clothing ensemble, the
Committee believes that proven fire-resistant protection for
extremities, particularly protection for soldiers' feet in the
form of durable, comfortable, and fire-resistant boot socks,
should be provided to every soldier, including dismounted
soldiers. The Committee encourages the Army to consider
expanding its requirement for fire-resistant boot socks from
only mounted soldiers to include dismounted soldiers as well.

USS Miami.--Subsequent to the fiscal year 2013 budget
submission, the USS Miami experienced fire damage during a
regularly scheduled maintenance availability. The Committee
recommends an additional $150,000,000 only for repairs to the
USS Miami and directs that none of those funds may be obligated
or expended until 30 days after the Secretary of the Navy
provides to the congressional defense committees an updated
damage assessment, the Navy's proposed plan for the USS Miami
and an updated cost estimate.
Naval Shipyard Apprentice Program.--The Committee directs
that during fiscal year 2013 the Navy shall induct classes of
no fewer than 100 apprentices, respectively, at each of the
naval shipyards. The Committee further directs the Navy to
include the costs of the fiscal year 2014 class of apprentices
in its budget request.
U.S. Coast Guard.--The Committee is aware that Department
of Defense [DOD] regulations currently restrict DOD mission
appropriated funded activities from offering reimbursable rates
to non-DOD agencies. This restriction forces the Navy to charge
the U.S. Coast Guard fully burdened rates for drydocking
services at Navy shipyards rather than reimbursable rates.
Therefore, the Committee directs that funds appropriated under
Operation and Maintenance, Navy may be used to pay overhead
costs incurred by a Naval Shipyard when drydocking U.S. Coast
Guard ships.
Defense Support to Civil Authorities.--Navy Emergency
Preparedness Liaison Officers [NEPLOs] serve as senior Navy
representatives for Defense Support to Civil Authorities during
emergencies and events of national significance such as
hurricanes, forest fires, flooding, and earthquakes. These
officers depend heavily on an ability to communicate rapidly
with service and interagency partners and to maintain an
accurate common operating picture that facilitates response
efforts. The Committee encourages the Department of Defense to
consider improvements to readiness management, information
sharing, communications, and situational awareness tools and
technologies in support of NEPLO and similar programs that
provide Defense Support to Civil Authorities during emergencies
and events of national significance.
Tank Corrosion Monitoring System.--The Committee encourages
the Navy to pursue maintenance cost savings by expanding its
camera and automated corrosion detection technology acquisition
program from the LPD-17 and DDG-1000 class of ships to include
the LSD-41, LSD-49, and LHD-1 class of ships.

Military Dependent Student Online Assistance.--The
Committee understands children of active duty military families
are faced with unique educational challenges in part because of
frequent changes of station over the course of childhood. To
better address these challenges, military parents can
substantially benefit from access to Internet-based educational
resources that can be brought to bear on the individualized
needs of their children. The Department is encouraged to
provide an assessment tool with accompanying resource material
that helps parents to engage with children to develop
conceptual understandings and to improve learning and skills.
State and Local Partnerships.--The Committee encourages the
Secretary of Defense, in conjunction with the services, to
consider entering cooperative agreements with State and local
governments for use of certain multiuse military facilities for
public affairs activities that benefit local job creation,
including commercial activities that promote American
technology. The Committee expects any such agreements would be
at no cost to the military and would not impede accomplishing
the inherent mission of the facility.
Defense Language and National Security Education Office.--
The Committee recognizes that, in partnership with universities
across the country, the Defense Language and National Security
Education Office provides critical training for servicemembers
and government officials in a number of languages and strategic
cultures, including those of the Arab world, Afghanistan,
China, and Iran. The Committee encourages the Department of
Defense to continue placing a high priority on these programs
to ensure warfighters receive the language and culture training
needed to complete their missions effectively and to ensure
that inadequate funding levels do not delay or deny this
valuable training.
Military Use Airspace.--The Committee encourages the
Department of Defense to continue to utilize national assets
such as the Hays Military Operations Area to maintain airborne
combat readiness for both manned and remotely piloted aircraft.
Military Service Awards.--The Committee understands that
the Department of Defense is committed to enhancing its ability
to verify award of military decorations through a comprehensive
database. At the present time, however, the process remains
manually intensive and more work needs to be done to verify the
authenticity of documentation and prevent the improper awarding
of service awards. Therefore, the Committee encourages the
Department of Defense to continue its efforts to improve its
database in order to preserve the integrity of military service
awards and to better ensure that veterans receive their due
recognition.
Middle East Regional Security Studies Programs.--The
Committee encourages the Department of Defense to continue to
support established university programs that promote region-
wide informal conferences and task forces on arms control,
regional security, and related topics to the Middle East for
Arab, Israeli and other officials and experts engaged in these
issues.

Department of Defense Acquisition Workforce Development Fund
Appropriations, 2012.................................... $105,501,000
Budget estimate, 2013................................... 274,198,000
House allowance......................................... 50,198,000
Committee recommendation................................ 720,000,000
The Committee recommends an appropriation of $720,000,000.
This is $445,802,000 above the budget estimate.
The Defense Acquisition Workforce Development Fund was
established to ensure that the Department of Defense
acquisition workforce has the capacity, in both personnel and
skills, needed to properly perform its mission, provide
appropriate oversight of contractor performance, and ensure
that the Department receives the best value for the expenditure
of public resources. To accomplish this, the Department set out
to hire and develop a substantial number of new acquisition
professionals. According to the Department, fiscal year 2008
had the lowest number of acquisition professionals in this
century. Since then, the acquisition workforce has grown from
approximately 125,800 to 151,200 which equates to over 20-
percent growth. Department officials stated that the hiring in
fiscal year 2012 completes the manning requirements needed to
improve its acquisition workforce. After fiscal year 2012, new
acquisition professionals will be hired only to sustain current
manning levels. The fiscal year 2013 budget request proposes
$274,198,000 to meet the Department's statutory funding level
of $944,000,000; a growth of $224,000,000 over the fiscal year
2012 statutory funding level. Given that the Department has
completed expansion of its acquisition workforce in fiscal year
2012, an increase in funding above the fiscal year 2012 level
is not justified. Therefore, the Committee recommends the
fiscal year 2012 statutory funding level of $720,000,000.

Procurement Budget Exhibits.--The fiscal year 2013
procurement budget exhibits were generated, for the first time,
using a standard Extensible Markup Language [XML] process. The
Committee notes that while there was some improvement to data
presentation, additional improvement is needed. The
justification material did not contain complete and accurate
data. In some cases basic data was missing from the documents
requiring a separate inquiry to the services. Additionally, the
new format for modification programs is very difficult to
review. For example, one modification program that was
presented on 10 pages in the fiscal year 2012 exhibits is
spread across 20 pages in the fiscal year 2013 exhibits. The
Under Secretary of Defense, Comptroller is encouraged to make
improvements to the exhibit formats that will improve the
presentation of the exhibits and ensure complete and accurate
data is presented.
Organic Industrial Base of the United States Military.--The
Committee notes that the organic industrial base of the United
States military advances a vital national security interest by
producing necessary materials, munitions, and hardware when
sources outside of the United States military are unable to
meet this urgent need quickly. The Committee believes that the
capacity of the organic industrial base of the United States
military must be maintained and reminds the Department to
carefully weigh any action that would deteriorate this
essential capability.
Drinking Water Supply Alternatives.--The Committee notes
with approval that the Army and Marine Corps plan to use a
portion of their funding for medical combat support equipment
to purchase water purifications systems. However, the Committee
notes that the Army and Marine Corps still overwhelmingly rely
on bottled water in field operations and exercises. Not only is
bottled water far more expensive than water purified by small
unit remote portable systems, but reliance on bottled water
leads to thousands of pounds of discarded plastic water bottles
every year. The Committee encourages the Army and Marine Corps
to jointly develop a plan to acquire drinking water supply
alternatives to eliminate reliance on bottled water for field
personnel.
Joint Strike Fighter [JSF] Advance Procurement.--The fiscal
year 2013 budget request includes: $65,000,000 for Navy JSF
advance procurement, which equates to $16,200,000 per aircraft;
$106,000,000 for Marine Corps advance procurement, which
equates to $17,600,000 per aircraft; and $293,000,000 for Air
Force advance procurement, which equates to $15,400,000 per
aircraft. The Committee notes that the Navy and Marine Corp
funding covers 12 months of advance procurement requirements
whereas the Air Force funding covers only 8 to 9 months of
advance procurement requirements. The Committee is concerned
with the inconsistency in coverage of advance procurement
requirements among the different variants and directs the
program office to review the inconsistencies and make changes
as necessary to fully fund advance procurement requirements.
Diminishing Manufacturing Sources [DMS].--The Committee
supports the Department's proactive approach to ensure the
ability to sustain future production capabilities by addressing
diminishing manufacturing sources but is concerned with
increased DMS costs within a number of tactical missile
procurement programs.
For example, from fiscal year 2008 to fiscal year 2013, DMS
costs within the Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missile
[AMRAAM] program in the Weapons Procurement, Navy and Missile
Procurement, Air Force accounts increased fourfold. The Navy's
Standard Missile 6 [SM-6] program is also reporting increases
in DMS costs due to the end of Standard Missile 2 [SM-2]
production and a reduced procurement of common components
shared between SM-6 and SM-2. In fiscal year 2013, the Air
Force's Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile [JASSM] began to
evaluate DMS and obsolescence issues, indicating the potential
for future increases in DMS costs.
Given the cross-cutting nature of this supplier issue, the
Committee directs the Departments of the Navy and the Air Force
to conduct a comprehensive review of the management of DMS
within tactical missile procurement programs. This report shall
include identification of the cost drivers for DMS within these
programs, a discussion of the common suppliers, a comparison of
DMS costs and approaches to funding among tactical missile
programs, and the impact of declining foreign military sales on
DMS costs. This report shall be submitted not later than 180
days after enactment of this act. In addition, the Committee
directs the Departments of the Navy and the Air Force to report
DMS costs separately from missile unit cost analysis to enhance
the Committee's ability to oversee these costs.
Ordnance Plant Recapitalization.--The Committee notes that
the Department of Defense [DOD] does not have a long-term
strategic capital improvement plan in place to support its
aging ordnance plants. These facilities are supporting a
multitude of DOD requirements, yet these activities could be
disrupted if basic infrastructure needs, such as heating and
cooling, safety, and environmental hazards, are not addressed
in the near future. Therefore, the Committee directs the
Secretary of Defense to submit a multiyear recapitalization
plan for the ordnance plants, including the industrial reserve,
to the congressional defense committees not later than 90 days
after enactment of this act. The Committee encourages the
Department to include the required funds in future budget
requests based on the most urgent needs identified.
Special Material Decoys.--Special Material Decoys [SMDs]
have been credited with saving the lives of countless service
men and women as well as over 100 U.S. and coalition aircraft
in Operation Enduring Freedom alone. The Committee encourages
the Secretary of Defense to adequately resource the production
and research and development of these decoys. Additionally, the
Committee encourages the services to coordinate their purchases
of such decoys so as to maximize efficiencies of scale and
avoid production breaks.
Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missile [AMRAAM].--The
Committee recommends a reduction of $38,324,000 for the
procurement of AMRAAM in the Weapons Procurement, Navy and
Missile Procurement, Air Force accounts and a rescission of
$60,334,000 from prior year appropriations. The recommendation
fully funds the requested quantity of 180 missiles. However,
due to lower than expected unit costs negotiated in the Lot 26
contract award, the program has excess prior year funding and
the fiscal year 2013 request is excess to the requirement.
Small Tactical Unmanned Aircraft System [STUAS]/RQ-21
UAS.--The initial requirement for the STUAS program was derived
from Urgent Universal Needs Statements issued in 2004 and 2005.
The program has an approved Capability Development Document
from 2008, but no approved Capability Production Document.
Milestone C is currently scheduled for the second quarter of
fiscal year 2013 after a recent 4-month delay in the program.
The program states that the delay to Milestone C will not
impact the delivery of initial operational capability [IOC]
because the schedule risk will be mitigated by beginning test
events early and combining developmental and operational test
events.
The Committee recommends the Joint Requirements Oversight
Council [JROC] review this program since its requirements and
costs have not been validated. Furthermore, the Committee is
concerned with the recent schedule compression and concurrency
between developmental testing and planned production. Moreover,
the current program schedule shows Milestone C occurring before
the operational testing final report is complete. The Committee
recommends Milestone C occur after the final test report is
issued to ensure the decision to move into production is fully
informed. The Committee also urges the Department of the Navy
Service Acquisition Executive to review the strategy, schedule,
and test plans for this program. Due to the schedule risk and
program concurrency, the Committee fully funds research and
development but provides no procurement funds in fiscal year
2013.

MQ-1C Gray Eagle.--The fiscal year 2013 budget request
includes $518,088,000 to procure 19 additional MQ-1C aircraft.
Since fiscal year 2012, the program has experienced several
testing delays, reliability issues and is not currently meeting
the operational availability key performance parameters. The
Army has procured 84 of the planned 135 production aircraft, or
about 62 percent of the planned procurement, yet has not
completed its initial phase of testing. Therefore, the
Committee recommends a reduction of $104,000,000 and four
aircraft to maintain a quantity consistent with full rate
production regulations.
AH-64 Apache Block IIIA Remanufacture.--The fiscal year
2013 budget request includes $577,115,000 to procure 40
remanufactured helicopters and $107,707,000 for advance
procurement for the subsequent lot of helicopters. The gross
weapon system unit cost for these helicopters increased from
$14,800,000 in fiscal year 2012 request to $19,200,000 in
fiscal year 2013 request. The justification documents provided
no justification for these cost increases. Therefore, the
Committee recommends a reduction of $70,000,000 to the
procurement request due to unjustified cost growth.
Furthermore, the Committee recommends a reduction of $8,900,000
for the advance procurement request, in line with fiscal year
2012 funding levels.
Kiowa Warrior Modifications.--The fiscal year 2013 request
includes $192,484,000 to procure Kiowa Warrior modifications.
The Committee notes funds are not needed in fiscal year 2013
since production has been delayed until fiscal year 2015.
Therefore, the Committee recommends a reduction of $108,900,000
in the base request for Kiowa Warrior modifications. The
Committee also recommends a reduction of $78,000,000 and seven
aircraft, which maintains fiscal year 2012 levels. Since
termination of the Armed Reconnaissance Helicopter program in
2008, the Army has continually reviewed and discussed
alternatives for replacing the Kiowa Warrior Helicopter. The
Army is now planning to conduct a Voluntary Flight
Demonstration [VFD] to evaluate options for fulfilling the
Armed Scout requirement. The Committee directs the Department
of the Army to complete the VFD and define the way ahead for
its Armed Scout requirement to the congressional defense
committees prior to obligating fiscal year 2013 replacement
aircraft funding.
RQ-7 Unmanned Aerial Vehicle [UAV] Modifications.--The
fiscal year 2013 request includes $104,339,000 for
modifications to the RQ-7 UAV. As of May 2012, the program had
over $404,000,000 of fiscal year 2011 funding unobligated and
all of the fiscal year 2012 funding unobligated. Therefore, the
Committee recommends a reduction of $95,074,000.

Excalibur XM982.--The Committee notes that the Increment 1b
Milestone C decision has been delayed 6 months due to a 2010
Nunn-McCurdy evaluation and technical difficulties during
design and testing. The Army plans on awarding the first
production contract for the 1b variant in December 2012 using
fiscal year 2012 funds. The fiscal year 2013 budget requests
$95,326,000 to award the second 1b production contract only 6
months later in June 2013. Under this plan, 82 percent of the
total planned procurement would be under contract about 6
months before the delivery of the first production lot and 9
months before the anticipated full-rate production decision in
March 2014. The Committee agrees with the Government
Accountability Office's recommendation to delay the award of
the second production lot until after the delivery of the
initial production lot in December 2013 in order to allow more
time to identify and correct any testing issues before
significantly ramping up production. Therefore, the Committee
recommends a reduction of $95,326,000 in the base request and
$12,300,000 in the OCO request.
Saboted Light Armor Penetrator Ammunition.--The Committee
is aware of the Army's decision to end production of M903 and
M962 armor-penetrating .50 caliber ammunition used during
combat operations. Within 120 days of enactment of this act,
the Secretary of the Army shall provide the congressional
defense committees a report on the health of the U.S.
industrial base with regard to the production capabilities for
this highly effective ammunition. This report should include
analyses of the consequences of a possible production line
shutdown and effects on second and third tier suppliers.

Budgeting for Sustainable Production Rates.--The Committee
commends the Army on the continual improvements it has made
over the past year in its integrated testing of the network
solution. Over time, the Network Integration Evaluation [NIE]
will help ensure the Army procures equipment only when it is
ready and can operate within the network, creating savings in
time, effort, and hardware costs. To leverage this success, the
Committee encourages the Army to modify the way it budgets for
equipment procured after positive performance at the NIE.
Currently, the Army budgets for network items based on
``capability sets'', or the number of Brigade Combat Teams
[BCTs] that will be outfitted with the equipment in a given
fiscal year. This simplified approach is problematic because
some equipment within the capability set can be manufactured in
significantly higher quantities than other equipment in that
same capability set. Forcing all vendors to produce to a
certain number of BCTs does not result in the most economical
unit cost. Additionally, meeting Army quantity demands may
require some vendors to increase capacity in 1 fiscal year and
then significantly reduce that capacity the next fiscal year.
The Committee recommends the Army examine the individual vendor
production capacity for each network item and plan to procure
the most economical order quantity and to sustain that quantity
over a period of time. To better enable congressional oversight
of budgeting practices, budget justification material submitted
for fiscal year 2014 should contain the most accurate
projections of contractor production capacity, lead times, and
delivery schedules.
Tactical Wheeled Vehicle Strategy.--The Committee is
concerned with the impact that recent reductions in Army
requirements for tactical wheeled vehicles [TWV] will have on
mission readiness and the TWV industrial base. The Committee
notes that independently operating brigade combat teams have
proven effective in the field and that these modular forces
have increased overall Army requirements for TWV. The Committee
directs the Army to submit an updated Tactical Wheeled Vehicle
Strategy to the congressional defense committees not later than
June 1, 2013. This report should include: (1) Plans for TWV
procurement, integration, sustainment, and management; (2)
Fleet size and mix requirements; (3) Allocation plans for reset
work between organic and private sector components of the TWV
industrial base; (4) Analysis of the potential impact on the
TWV industrial base; and (5) Plans for sustaining the TWV
industrial base.
Warfighter Integration Network--Tactical [WIN-T].--In
fiscal year 2012, the Army was appropriated $865,186,000 to
procure WIN-T increment II units. Due to the Army's decision to
delay operational testing until May 2012, the contract will not
be awarded until September 2012. In the fiscal year 2013
budget, the Army requests $892,635,000 for additional units.
The Committee is concerned that the Army is too focused on
equipping capability sets and does not take the vendor's
production capacity into account when budgeting for this
program. The funding the Army requested would force the WIN-T
vendor to hire additional workforce and invest in additional
production capacity that would not be fiscally sustainable in
the next budget request. Therefore, the Committee recommends a
reduction of $346,815,000 to allow the vendor adequate time to
enhance its production capacity and, subsequently, maintain a
steady and fiscally sustainable production rate.
Joint Tactical Radio System [JTRS]--Manpack.--The fiscal
year 2013 Army budget request contains $287,314,000 for 4,589
JTRS Manpack units. The Committee notes that the Army has
$30,348,000 in unobligated fiscal year 2012 funds for 410 Low
Rate Initial Production [LRIP] units waiting to be put on
contract. The JTRS Manpack underwent multiservice test and
evaluation in May 2012 to inform a second LRIP decision later
in the fiscal year after the test report is issued. The current
acquisition strategy for this program calls for a second LRIP
contract award prior to Full Rate Production [FRP]. However,
the Army's budget request will put them into FRP before the
program completes testing. Therefore, the Committee recommends
a reduction of $190,000,000 to provide adequate funds for the
second LRIP contract award.
Joint Tactical Radio System [JTRS] Competition.--In an
effort to ensure the most advanced and most capable technology
is being deployed to the field, the Committee encourages the
Department of the Army to leverage commercially available
technology and competitively award procurement funds to ensure
that Joint Tactical Radio System [JTRS] certified advanced
technology can be integrated into the program.

Standard Missile 6 [SM-6].--The Committee recommends
$381,762,000 for procurement of the SM-6 missile in Weapons
Procurement, Navy, a decrease of $17,720,000 below the budget
request. The fiscal year 2013 budget requests an increase in
production rates even though the program is experiencing unit
cost increases, continues to have problems with operational
testing, and delayed its full-rate production. As a result, the
Committee is concerned with the concurrency in this program and
provides funding for a total of 89 missiles, the same level of
production as fiscal year 2012. In addition, the Committee
recommends $43,891,000 in Research, Development, Test and
Evaluation, Navy, a decrease of $20,000,000 below the request,
due to program execution delays.

Navy Shipbuilding Plans.--The fiscal year 2013 budget
request includes $13,579,845,000 in Shipbuilding and
Conversion, Navy [SCN], a decrease of $1,339,269,000 from
amounts appropriated in fiscal year 2012. The Navy's projected
fiscal year 2014 SCN budget request is a further decrease of no
less than $1,000,000,000.
The Committee is concerned with the apparent disconnect
between the Navy's publicly stated priorities and the Navy's
fiscal year 2013 shipbuilding budget submission which, as
compared to the fiscal year 2012 plan, reduces planned ship
procurement for the next 5 years by 16 ships and eliminates
funding for one Virginia class attack submarine, one amphibious
ship, and three oilers. In addition, the Navy's budget request
omits funding for an additional Arleigh Burke class guided
missile destroyer contrary to the Navy's force structure goals.
The Committee is concerned that these proposed adjustments will
drive up costs for multiple classes of ships and negatively
impact the industrial base, almost certainly leading to
additional cost growth in shipbuilding.
The Committee notes that it was just 3 years ago that the
Navy had implemented sufficient cost-reduction measures to
allow for the procurement of two Virginia class attack
submarines per year. The Committee is troubled that the Navy
removed one Virginia class attack submarine from its near-term
shipbuilding plan, particularly when the Navy is seeking
multiyear procurement authority for Virginia class submarines
to be procured from fiscal years 2014 through 2018. The
Committee has been informed by the Navy that procuring 10
Virginia class submarines in the next multiyear procurement
instead of 9 as proposed in the fiscal year 2013 budget request
would result in an average submarine unit cost reduction in
excess of $120,000,000. The Committee believes that these cost
savings and the avoidance of industrial base perturbations
warrant the inclusion of a tenth Virginia class submarine in
the next multiyear procurement.
The Committee has been advised by the Navy that the
addition of a tenth submarine, which would be procured in
fiscal year 2014, to the multiyear procurement necessitates
Advance Procurement funding in fiscal year 2013. Therefore, the
Committee recommends an additional $777,679,000 only for
Advance Procurement of a second Virginia class submarine in
fiscal year 2014, as authorized in S. 3254, the National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013, as reported. As
noted in Senate Report 112-173 to accompany S. 3254, as
reported, procurement of an additional submarine in fiscal year
2014 will help alleviate an attack submarine shortfall
anticipated in 2022. In addition, the Committee understands
that current budget constraints make full funding of all 10
submarines included in the multiyear procurement in accordance
with the Department's Financial Management Regulations
unaffordable, but that incrementally funding these submarines
allows for their procurement within the current budget. While
incremental funding authority is currently only provided for
aircraft carriers and large-deck amphibious ships, the
Committee notes the precedence for incrementally funding a
submarine and recommends incremental funding authority only for
the Virginia class submarines to be procured under the next
multiyear procurement.
In addition, the fiscal year 2013 budget request includes a
proposal to procure nine Arleigh Burke class guided missile
destroyers at a rate of two ships per year for the next 5 years
with the exception of fiscal year 2014, where the Navy has only
budgeted for one Arleigh Burke class guided missile destroyer.
The Committee has been informed by the Navy that a tenth
destroyer could be added to this multiyear procurement at a
significantly lower ship unit cost. According to the Navy,
those costs could be partially offset with savings generated
from previous competitive procurements, with the balance of
funding required in the fiscal year 2014 shipbuilding budget
request. Recognizing the fiscal pressures on the Navy's fiscal
year 2014 shipbuilding budget, the Committee recommends taking
advantage of these significant cost savings now and recommends
an additional $1,000,000,000 in fiscal year 2013 to fully fund
a tenth Arleigh Burke class guided missile destroyer within the
next multiyear procurement.
The Committee notes that within this multiyear procurement,
the Navy intends to include next generation Flight III Arleigh
Burke class guided missile destroyers with an improved radar
suite and combat systems capability as an Engineering Change
Proposal [ECP]. Since the radar is still in development,
acquisition authorities within the Department have yet to be
established, and the ECP has no defined scope and associated
cost estimates, the Committee finds it premature to request
authority for this ECP within the multiyear procurement at this
time. Therefore, the Committee provides multiyear procurement
authority only for Flight IIA Arleigh Burke class guided
missile destroyers, as authorized in S. 3254, the National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013, as reported.
Finally, the fiscal year 2013 budget request includes a
proposal to eliminate an amphibious class warship from the 5-
year shipbuilding plan, and defers funding for the only other
amphibious ship in the Navy's 5-year plan until fiscal year
2017. As detailed in section 130 of S. 3254, the National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013, as reported,
the Navy and Marine Corps have agreed on a fiscally constrained
minimum force of 33 ships to meet a 38 amphibious warship force
requirement. Currently, there are 29 ships in the Department of
the Navy's amphibious fleet and the most recent shipbuilding
and retirement plan submitted to Congress reduces the force to
28 vessels in fiscal year 2015. If all amphibious warships
currently in the inventory were operationally available, the
Marine Expeditionary Brigade assault echelon would be lacking
approximately 400,000 square feet of vehicle stowage and 3
million gallons of JP-5 jet fuel. However, since 10 to 15
percent of warships are in overhaul and unavailable at any
given time, the number of operationally available amphibious
warships leaves an even greater shortfall and is significantly
below the minimum lift requirement stated by the Department of
the Navy.
The Committee is deeply concerned about the level of risk
being assumed with amphibious lift capability and the impact
this has on Commanders to meet operations plans and crisis
response requirements, particularly as the Department of
Defense rebalances its global posture towards the Asia-Pacific
region. The Committee is also concerned about the ability to
address this assumed risk when the next amphibious class
warship in the Navy's shipbuilding plan does not appear until 5
years from now. As noted earlier, this proposal and funding gap
will almost certainly have a negative industrial base impact
and lead to additional cost growth in multiple shipbuilding
programs. Therefore, to start addressing the amphibious lift
shortfall that exists today, the Committee recommends an
additional $263,255,000 only for Advance Procurement of
continued LPD-17 Class amphibious ship production.
Landing Craft Air Cushioned [LCAC] Service Life Extension
Program [SLEP].--The fiscal year 2013 budget request includes
$47,930,000 for two LCAC SLEPs, a reduction of two from the
prior year, and two less than what is budgeted in each
subsequent fiscal year through 2018. Therefore, the Committee
finds the Navy's proposal of a 1-year reduction to the
acquisition profile inefficient and recommends an additional
$37,900,000 to restore two LCAC SLEPS in fiscal year 2013.
Harbor Yard Tugs.--The fiscal year 2013 budget request
includes no funding for Harbor Yard Tugs. The Committee notes
that the last procurement of Harbor Yard Tugs was in fiscal
year 2009 and is concerned about the impact of this acquisition
pause on the industrial base. The Committee directs the
Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Research, Development and
Acquisition to submit to the congressional defense committees a
report on the long range strategy for Harbor Yard Tugs, to
include the potential application of hybrid technology, with
the fiscal year 2014 budget submission.

Submarine Combat Control Systems Procurement.--The fiscal
year 2013 budget request includes $71,316,000 for Navy
Submarine Combat Control Systems. The program is responsible
for the Submarine Force's Technology Insertion [TI] and
Advanced Processor Build [APB] modernization process. This
program continues to be a model of efficient, effective, and
rapid response to submarine warfighter combat system, sonar,
and imaging needs. This program utilizes a flexible and
forward-thinking methodology which enables the rapid
introduction of fleet requirements and capability via an
alternating biannual hardware and software modernization
process which facilitates a stable industrial base. The TI/APB
modernization process provides the submarine force with
enhanced warfighting capabilities while avoiding significant
research, design, acquisition, obsolescence, and training costs
by transitioning three classes of attack submarines and the
four guided missile submarines to a common baseline.

F-22 Automatic Backup Oxygen System [ABOS].--The fiscal
year 2013 budget request includes no funds for the F-22 ABOS.
The Committee notes that following submission of the fiscal
year 2013 budget request, the Air Force was directed by the
Secretary of Defense to take additional measures to ensure the
health and safety of the airmen and maintainers operating the
F-22, to include expediting the installation of an automatic
backup oxygen system. The Committee understands that the fiscal
year 2013 funding requirement for the procurement of ABOS is
$21,500,000 and that the Air Force intends to defer other,
previously funded critical reliability improvements to the F-22
in order to accelerate the procurement and installation of
ABOS. The Committee does not agree with this strategy and
recommends an additional $21,500,000 in fiscal year 2013 to
execute the accelerated ABOS schedule without negatively
impacting other reliability projects.
C-130J Advance Procurement.--The fiscal year 2013 budget
request includes no Advance Procurement funding in Aircraft
Procurement, Air Force, for C-130J aircraft that will be
procured in fiscal year 2014. As previously stated in Senate
Report 112-77, the Committee is concerned that the lack of
advance procurement funding will cause a negative production
impact that will result in delays of future aircraft
deliveries. The Committee notes that the Marine Corps has
included Advance Procurement funding in the fiscal year 2013
budget request for C-130Js planned for procurement by the
Marine Corps in fiscal year 2014. The Committee recommends
$180,000,000 in Aircraft Procurement, Air Force for Advance
Procurement of no less than 18 C-130Js to be procured by the
Air Force in fiscal year 2014.
U-2 Sensors.--The Committee notes that funds appropriated
in prior years for U-2 sensors and sensor upgrades have not
been obligated due to pending force structure decisions. The
Committee sees no reason to delay the procurement of U-2
sensors and upgrades and directs the Air Force to obligate
fiscal year 2011 and fiscal year 2012 funds for the U-2 for the
purpose for which they were appropriated.
Operational Support Aircraft.--Senate Report 112-77 to
accompany Public Law 112-74, the Department of Defense
Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2012, expressed support for
the Air Force 2010 Air Mobility Master Plan which called for
replacement of C-20B aircraft with C-37Bs. To ensure an orderly
transition for enactment of this plan, the Committee directs
the Secretary of the Air Force to submit a detailed plan with
the fiscal year 2014 budget submission that provides both
schedule and budget data for acquisition of the C-37Bs.
Spare Engines.--The Committee understands that the Air
Force has a shortfall of spare engines for F-15E and F-16
aircraft. The Committee encourages the Air Force to fully fund
this requirement.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Small Diameter Bomb Increment II [SDB II].--The Committee
recommends no procurement funds for SDB II in fiscal year 2013.
The request to start production in fiscal year 2013 is
premature due to significant testing that remains to be
completed and delays in the Joint Strike Fighter [JSF]
development program.
The SDB II program began its test phase in spring 2012 and
is scheduled to conduct 11 free-flight tests prior to obtaining
production approval. These tests are not scheduled to complete
until the end of fiscal year 2013. Furthermore, SDB II must be
integrated on both the F-15E and F-35B/C Joint Strike Fighter
aircraft before it is able to enter full rate production. SDB
II integration on the JSF is not scheduled to begin until
fiscal year 2017, with operational testing scheduled to
complete in 2020. According to the Air Force, the current
acquisition strategy will require eight lots of low rate
initial production to accommodate F-35B/C schedule delays,
which will result in higher unit costs for an extended period
of time.
The Committee remains supportive of the capability of this
weapon, and fully funds the research and development of this
program in fiscal year 2013. The Committee recommends the
Department of the Air Force modify its acquisition strategy to
align with F-15E and JSF integration and consider an optimal
production rate that minimizes individual unit costs.
Advanced Extremely High Frequency [AEHF] and Space Based
Infrared System [SBIRS].--Beginning in fiscal year 2012,
Congress directed incremental funding for the AEHF and SBIRS
programs. In an effort to gain efficiencies from a combined buy
of certain long-lead materials, the Air Force has delayed the
contract awards for AEHF 5 and 6 and SBIRS GEO 5 and 6 until
late in fiscal year 2012. The Committee commends the Air Force
for its flexibility and ingenuity in looking across its
acquisition portfolio to find efficiencies.
However, due to the delay in contract awards, and the
incremental funding strategy for both programs, funds that were
expected to be expended in fiscal year 2012 will carry over
into fiscal year 2013. The recommendation includes a reduction
of $94,000,000 in AEHF procurement and $75,600,000 in SBIRS
procurement due to the contract delays and the carryover of
prior-year funds.
Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle.--The budget request
includes $1,679,856,000 for the Evolved Expendable Launch
Vehicle [EELV] program. The EELV program consists of EELV
Launch Services, which funds the launch of Air Force
satellites, and EELV Launch Capability, which maintains the
engineering workforce and infrastructure needed for launch
missions. In fiscal year 2012, the Air Force successfully
negotiated substantial cost savings to the EELV Launch
Capability contract. Savings from those negotiations are
planned to be used to procure an additional Delta IV launch
service.
The Committee commends the Air Force and the contractor for
identifying more than $219,000,000 in efficiencies in the
current fiscal year and reinvesting the savings in a launch
vehicle that was not included in the fiscal year 2012 budget
request.
However, because the fiscal year 2013 budget could not
anticipate the savings coming out of these negotiations, the
funds requested in the fiscal year 2013 budget are in excess of
what will be required to sustain the EELV Launch Capability
program. Therefore, the Committee recommends a reduction of
$220,000,000 to the EELV Launch Capability program due to
negotiated contract savings. The recommendation fully supports
the request for four EELV Launch Services.
In addition, the Committee recommends the separation of
EELV Launch Services and EELV Launch Capability funds into
separate procurement line items in order to increase the budget
visibility of each program. The Committee directs the Secretary
of the Air Force to provide for separate procurement line items
for each program in future budget submissions.

Special Operations Command [SOCOM].--The fiscal year 2013
request includes $99,776,000 for nonstandard aviation aircraft
and $7,530,000 for U-28 aircraft. SOCOM is consolidating and
combining these efforts and in doing so requested to transfer
$62,776,000 from nonstandard aviation to U-28 aircraft. This
consolidation is necessary to meet current and future SOCOM
demands and maximize combat capability. In order to execute
this efficiency, the Committee also recommends using
appropriated funds to complete the modifications necessary to
convert four nonstandard aircraft into U-28 aircraft
configuration.
Special Operations Command [SOCOM].--Following the
submission of the fiscal year 2013 budget request, SOCOM
submitted an urgent request for a high definition full motion
video payload for existing weapons systems. To support this
important initiative, the Committee recommends a $142,400,000
increase over the budget request. To ensure SOCOM has the
capacity to properly receive and analyze the data, within 120
days after enactment, the Committee directs the Commander of
U.S. Special Operations Command to submit a report outlining
SOCOM's plan to support the bandwidth demands and manpower
necessary.
MISSILE DEFENSE AGENCY
Standard Missile-3 Block IB [SM-3 IB].--The fiscal year
2013 budget request includes $389,626,000 for the procurement
of 29 SM-3 IB interceptors, a reduction of 33 interceptors from
previous plans. The Committee is aware of this program's past
developmental challenges which warranted a slow-down of the
production ramp. However, the Committee is further aware that
the SM-3 IB recently concluded two successful intercept tests
and appears headed toward a production decision pending success
of the next flight intercept planned for the first quarter of
fiscal year 2013. The Committee is further aware of Combatant
Commanders' continued high demand for the SM-3 interceptor and
therefore recommends an increase of $189,000,000 for 17
additional Block 1B interceptors.
AN/TPY-2 Radar.--The fiscal year 2013 budget request
includes $217,244,000 for the procurement of one AN/TPY-2
radar, a reduction of one radar from the prior year. The
Committee notes the high operational demands for the AN/TPY-2
radar, to include a recent deployment directed by the Chairman
of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The Committee is aware of
potential emerging requirements for this radar and recommends
an additional $163,000,000 only for the procurement of a second
AN/TPY-2 radar in fiscal year 2013. The Committee notes that
the total fiscal year 2013 recommendation of $380,244,000 is
equal to amounts appropriated in fiscal year 2012 allowing for
the purchase of two radars.

Additional Funding.--The Committee recognizes the critical
role that the DPA title III program serves in strengthening the
U.S. defense industrial base and believes that this work is in
the national interest. Therefore, the Committee increases
funding for DPA by $100,000,000 over the budget request. The
Committee directs that the additional funding be competitively
awarded to new initiatives and priority consideration should be
given to completion of DPA projects initiated in prior years.
Furthermore, the Committee directs the Under Secretary of
Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics to inform
the congressional defense committees 30 days prior to any
obligation or expenditure of these funds.
TITLE IV
RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, TEST AND EVALUATION
Funds appropriated under this title provide the resources
required to conduct a program of research, development, test
and evaluation, including research in basic science, applied
research, advanced technology development, demonstration and
validation, engineering and manufacturing development, and
operational systems development.
The President's fiscal year 2013 budget requests a total of
$69,407,767,000 for research, development, test and evaluation
appropriations.
SUMMARY OF COMMITTEE ACTION
The Committee recommends research, development, test and
evaluation appropriations totaling $69,091,078,000 for fiscal
year 2013. This is $316,689,000 below the budget estimate.
Committee recommended research, development, test and
evaluation appropriations for fiscal year 2013 are summarized

COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS
The Committee has displayed recommended adjustments in
tables presented under each appropriation account.
These adjustments reflect the following Committee actions:
elimination of funds requested for programs which are lower
priority, duplicative, or not supported by firm requirements in
out-year development or procurement appropriations; deletion of
excess funds based on program delays or slow execution;
addition of funds to reflect congressional priorities and to
rectify shortfalls in the budget estimate; and implementation
of recommendations in S. 3254, the National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013, as reported.
The Committee directs that the funding increases outlined
in these tables shall be provided only for the specific
purposes indicated in the table.
RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, TEST AND EVALUATION OVERVIEW
Research, Development, Test and Evaluation [RDT&E] Budget
Exhibits.--The Committee appreciates the efforts of the Under
Secretary of Defense, Comptroller, to standardize the RDT&E
budget exhibits. However, the Committee notes the absence of R-
3 exhibits for many programs resulting from the Financial
Management Regulation change that now only requires R-3
exhibits for acquisition category 1D programs. The
congressional defense committees rely on these justification
exhibits regardless of acquisition category level. Therefore,
for the fiscal year 2014 budget submission, the Under Secretary
of Defense, Comptroller is directed to provide R-3 exhibits for
all programs funded in Budget Activities 4, 5, and 7 regardless
of acquisition category or funding amount.
Joint Strike Fighter [JSF] Modernization.--The fiscal year
2013 Navy and Marine Corps' budget request includes $16,834,000
for modernization, an increase of over $7,000,000 above the
fiscal year 2012 enacted amount. The Committee is concerned
that the Department plans to begin modernization when the
baseline development program is not scheduled to complete until
fiscal year 2018. Beginning modernization in fiscal year 2013
creates a 6-year overlap of baseline development and
modernization, adding to existing concurrency risk in the
program. Prior to beginning the modernization effort, the
Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to create a Joint
Requirement Oversight Council and warfighter validated joint
modernization roadmap, spanning the unclassified and classified
programs, that prioritizes the future capability improvements
for each aircraft variant. The Committee denies the fiscal year
2013 request of $16,834,000 and expects the program office to
utilize fiscal year 2012 funding to create this modernization
roadmap. In addition, the Committee recommends the program
office budget for modernization efforts in a separate program
element in future budget submissions.
Joint Strike Fighter [JSF] Configuration Management.--The
Committee notes that during the low rate initial production
aircraft lots one through five, there is one hardware
configuration and five software configurations. Beginning in
low rate initial production lot six, the hardware and software
configuration differ when compared to earlier lots of aircraft.
The Committee is concerned with establishing multiple hardware
and software configurations across the fleet, especially
because these aircraft deliver to multiple locations worldwide.
The Committee recommends the program office establish a
hardware and software management strategy to maximize
technology insertion without hampering affordability.
Army Missile Defense Programs.--The Committee understands
that the Army has initiated a business case analysis [BCA] to
determine the costs, benefits and risks associated with a
potential transfer of certain missile defense activities and
elements from the Army to the Missile Defense Agency [MDA]. The
Committee understands that the BCA is still in progress and
will review it following its submission to the congressional
defense committees. The Committee further understands that no
assets or activities will be transferred during fiscal years
2012 or 2013, consistent with the fact that no funds have been
appropriated in this or prior Department of Defense
Appropriations Acts to fund a transfer of Army missile defense
program responsibilities to MDA, or to fund the implementation
of the Army's Program Executive Officer [PEO] for Missiles and
Space serving as the Program Executive for Army missile defense
systems within MDA.
Foreign Object Debris Detection Systems.--The Committee is
concerned that the Department of Defense is not adequately
taking advantage of technologies that would reduce foreign
object debris-related aircraft engine replacement or repair
costs across the services. Accordingly, the Committee
encourages the Secretary of Defense to develop a plan to begin
the use of high technology debris detection systems to reduce
both the hazards and maintenance costs associated with foreign
object debris, while improving aviation safety in both ground
and air operations.
Technology Transfer.--The Committee recognizes the
importance of transitioning technology between the Federal
Government and non-Federal organizations, academia, the
nonprofit sector, and state and local governments. Technology
transfer ensures that taxpayer investments in research and
development are used to significantly benefit the economy and
the general public, along with promoting commercialization for
small businesses. Further, in fulfilling its responsibility to
ensure the full use of the results of the Nation's Federal
investment in research and development, the Committee
encourages the Department of Defense to place an increased
focus on transferring technologies to these entities.

Joint Multi-Role Program [JMR].--The fiscal year 2013
budget request includes $11,800,000 in the Aviation Advanced
Technology line to initiate the development of a Joint Multi-
Role [JMR] demonstrator. The Committee notes that the Army's
acquisition strategy calls for funding two competitively
awarded demonstrators; however, only one demonstrator is fully
budgeted for in this line. The Committee understands that the
Army intends to transfer the funds required for a second
demonstrator to the Aviation Advanced Technology line in the
year of execution. The Committee notes that this is an
inappropriate and risky method to initiate and fund the Army's
next major aviation acquisition program, and recommends funding
both demonstrators in the same line by transferring the
required fiscal year 2013 funds. Further, the Committee directs
that no funds may be obligated or expended for a JMR
demonstrator in fiscal year 2013 until the Deputy Assistant
Secretary of the Army for Research and Technology certifies in
writing to the congressional defense committees that the JMR
demonstrator program is fully and appropriately budgeted for in
accordance with the Army's acquisition strategy.
Combat Vehicle Modernization Affordability.--The fiscal
year 2013 budget request includes $893,900,000 in Research,
Development, Test and Evaluation, Army, program elements
0603653A, 0605625A, and 0203735A, for the modernization of the
Army's combat vehicles, to include Stryker, Bradley, Abrams,
the Armored Multi-Purpose Vehicle [AMPV] and the Ground Combat
Vehicle [GCV]. This includes $639,900,000, over 70 percent, for
the GCV. The Committee notes that programmatic and funding
requirements for the remainder of the combat vehicle fleet have
not been held stable. For example, the fiscal year 2013 budget
request terminates the Stryker Modernization program after 5
years and an investment in excess of $250,000,000. Instead, the
Army intends to execute Stryker modernization through
Engineering Change Proposals [ECPs]; however, the Committee
notes that there is no funding programmed across the Future
Years Defense Program [FYDP] for a Stryker ECP.
The Committee notes that the Army has programmed more than
80 percent of its combat vehicle modernization budget over the
next 5 years for the ground combat vehicle, which will
eventually make up roughly 10 percent of the Army's combat
vehicle fleet. The Committee is concerned that the Army is not
adequately budgeting for modernization efforts for a large
portion of the fleet. The Committee understands that the Army
is conducting a business case analysis on future improvements
of its combat vehicle fleet and directs the Secretary of the
Army to provide the findings of this analysis to the
congressional defense committees with the fiscal year 2014
budget submission.
Warfighter Information Network--Tactical [WIN-T].--The
fiscal year 2013 budget request includes $275,232,000 for WIN-T
Increment III, an increase of $99,544,000 over amounts
appropriated in fiscal year 2012. A proposal made by the Army
to accelerate the program following a rebaselining necessitated
by a previous Nunn-McCurdy breach was denied by the Congress in
fiscal year 2012, and the Army subsequently restructured the
program. In addition, the Army is exploring alternate programs
at the Network Integration Evaluation [NIE] that could deliver
the necessary WIN-T Increment III capabilities to the
warfighter at a lower cost. Therefore, the Committee finds it
premature to request such a significant budget increase and
recommends a reduction of $106,600,000 that includes a
corresponding reduction of proposed program office growth. This
recommendation continues to fund WIN-T Increment III
development at the current level.
Analyses of Alternatives [AoA].--The fiscal year 2013
budget request includes $10,871,000 within program element
0604115A for Analyses of Alternatives. As previously stated in
Senate Report 112-77, the Committee believes that these funds
should be requested in a separate program element. Therefore,
consistent with the recommendation contained in House Report
112-284, the Joint Explanatory Statement of the Committee of
Conference to accompany Public Law 112-74, the Department of
Defense Appropriations Act, 2012, the Committee again
recommends transferring these funds to a separate line, and
directs the Army to follow this approach in future budget
submissions. Further, the Committee directs that none of these
funds may be obligated or expended to initiate an Analysis of
Alternatives without 30-day prior notification to the
congressional defense committees identifying the purpose of the
AoA and certifying its full funding.
Degraded Visual Environment [DVE].--The fiscal year 2013
budget request includes $28,500,000 for a DVE capability in
response to an operational need. The Committee notes that the
capability developed in response to the operational need will
not be fielded to an operational unit until fiscal year 2015.
Therefore, the Committee questions the operational relevance of
this development effort to the current war in Afghanistan.
However, given the Department's long-standing concern with DVE,
the Committee supports the operational need in the near term
and recommends $12,300,000 for this effort, the amount
identified by the Army as required in fiscal year 2013.
In addition, the budget request includes $15,000,000 to
initiate a DVE program of record in fiscal year 2013. The
Committee notes that the acquisition strategy for the program
of record is pre-decisional; however, the Committee believes
that this program should be developed and funded as an enduring
capability instead of the ad hoc approach that the Department
has undertaken to date. Therefore, the Committee recommends
full funding for the program of record. Furthermore, the
Committee understands that a capability to improve aviation
safety and survivability by incorporating rotary wing
performance mission planning tools is under consideration for
inclusion in the program of record and encourages the Army to
examine the benefits of these tools for increased
survivability.
Modernized Expanded Capacity Vehicle [MECV].--Based on Army
identified requirements, Congress provided $20,000,000 in
Public Law 112-74, the Department of Defense Appropriations
Act, 2012, specifically to continue the MECV program. The Army
subsequently terminated the program and requested no funding in
the fiscal year 2013 budget. The Committee understands that
with funds appropriated in fiscal year 2012, the Army intends
to complete the initial phase of the MECV program to assess
current light tactical vehicle survivability technologies
through vehicle testing and modeling and simulation efforts
only. The Committee believes the MECV test program as
originally proposed would provide a more complete data set
against which to assess the technologies and strongly urges the
Army to conduct more extensive testing as originally proposed
to the Committee by the Army. The Committee directs the Army to
provide the results of this testing in writing to the
congressional defense committees within 60 days of its
completion. Further, the Committee directs the Director of
Operational Test and Evaluation to provide to the congressional
defense committees in writing his observations and findings
regarding the test parameters and test execution, as well as an
assessment of these technologies in comparison to other light
tactical vehicle survivability efforts.
Joint Land Attack Cruise Missile Defense Elevated Netted
Sensor [JLENS].--The fiscal year 2013 budget request includes
$30,500,000 for a JLENS Combatant Command Exercise. The
Committee notes that the congressional defense committees
previously approved an above threshold reprogramming request of
$40,350,000 for this purpose at the end of fiscal year 2011.
Subsequently, the Army determined that those funds were
requested ahead of need for numerous reasons, and is seeking to
again reprogram those funds for higher Army priorities.
In the fiscal year 2013 budget submission, the Army
proposes to cancel its planned procurement of JLENS and to
conclude the program of record following completion of the
Engineering and Manufacturing Development [EMD] phase in fiscal
year 2014. The Committee understands that any Combatant Command
Exercise would not occur until after the orderly conclusion of
the EMD phase in fiscal year 2014. Further, the Committee
understands that many details of this exercise, to include the
location, scope and a comprehensive cost estimate have yet to
be determined. The Committee notes that no operation and
maintenance or military construction funds have been budgeted
for a Combatant Command Exercise, which, according to previous
estimates, could cost in excess of $250,000,000. Therefore,
while the Committee maintains its strong support for Combatant
Commanders' unfunded requirements, the Committee concludes that
the funds requested in Research, Development, Test and
Evaluation, Army for a Combatant Command Exercise in fiscal
year 2013 are early to need and recommends no funds for that
purpose.
Medium Extended Air Defense System [MEADS].--The fiscal
year 2013 budget request includes $400,861,000 for MEADS, a
tri-national ground-based air and terminal ballistic missile
defense program among the United States of America, Germany,
and Italy. This request would fund the second and final year of
a MEADS Proof of Concept and bring the MEADS development
program to a close. Under the Proof of Concept, the program
would complete verification and testing of the 360-degree
multifunction fire control radar and would verify the ability
of the PAC-3 Missile Segment Enhancement [MSE] missile to
intercept targets from the lightweight, near-vertical launcher;
document the specifications, performance characteristics, and
capabilities of all system elements; and would conduct two
intercept flight tests. The Committee notes that per the report
submitted to Congress by the Under Secretary of Defense for
Acquisition, Technology and Logistics in accordance with
Section 235 of Public Law 112-81, the National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012, the fiscal year 2013
U.S. contribution to the MEADS Proof of Concept is
$348,000,000, and that the balance of the fiscal year 2013
request is for program office activities.
As an alternative to completing the Proof of Concept, as
requested in the fiscal year 2013 budget submission, the
Committee understands that the U.S. could potentially seek to
end its involvement in the MEADS program after fiscal year
2012. The Committee has been informed by the Department that
should the United States decide to pursue this course of
action, it would seek to enter a dispute settlement process
with the MEADS partners to avoid having to pay termination
liability for unilateral early withdrawal from the MEADS
program per paragraph 19.5.2 of the MEADS Memorandum of
Understanding [MOU]. The Committee notes that over the course
of the past year, numerous attempts by the Department to
renegotiate the MOU and to jointly conclude the MEADS program
after fiscal year 2012 have been rebuffed by the partners.
Further, the Committee has been informed that the partners
would consider failure of the United States to contribute its
fiscal year 2013 MEADS share as required under the MOU a
unilateral withdrawal from the program, which would trigger a
termination liability funding requirement. The Committee
understands that the U.S. termination liability requirement
would likely be equal to, but not greater than, the
$348,000,000 required to conclude the Proof of Concept.
The Committee notes that the payment of termination
liability for terminated programs is standard practice and
enables the Government to retain technical data rights and
harvest technologies and end-items for future U.S.
requirements, including Combatant Command needs. For example,
to date, the Department of Defense has paid more than
$470,000,000 following termination of the Army's Future Combat
Systems [FCS] program, which has enabled the transition of
certain technologies developed under FCS to other programs.
Similarly, the Secretary of Defense and the Chief of Staff of
the Army have identified several technologies that the
Department would seek to transition from the MEADS program to
other U.S. air and missile defense programs upon conclusion of
the Proof of Concept. The Committee has been informed, however,
that access to these technologies is dependent on bringing the
MEADS program to an orderly close by either completing the
Proof of Concept as agreed to or by closing out the program
following cessation of activities with the payment of
termination liability.
Therefore, the Committee recommends sufficient funding to
either conclude the MEADS Proof of Concept, as requested by the
Department of Defense in the fiscal year 2013 budget
submission, or to cover termination liability costs required by
paragraph 19.5.2 of the MOU, if the Secretary of Defense
certifies to the congressional defense committees that
withdrawing from the MEADS MOU is in the national interest of
the United States. The Committee directs that none of these
funds may be obligated or expended for termination liability
until 30 days after the Secretary of Defense notifies the
congressional defense committees about the details of any such
termination liability requirements.
Enhanced Medium Altitude Reconnaissance and Surveillance
System [EMARSS].--The fiscal year 2013 budget request includes
$47,246,000 in Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Army
to conclude the development of EMARSS during fiscal year 2013.
The Committee notes that the Army has adjusted its acquisition
strategy and no longer plans to procure the original
acquisition objective of 36 aircraft. The Committee has been
informed that the Army's revised acquisition strategy is
underfunded, and recommends an additional $70,600,000 in
Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Army for EMARSS.
The Committee notes that this fully funds the Engineering and
Manufacturing Development [EMD] phase, to include exercising
the option for two additional aircraft, as requested by the
Army.
Microtechnology Energy.--The Committee understands that the
Department of Defense continues its focus on developing
sustainable energy technologies that provide strategic
effectiveness and energy security in the areas of energy
supply, demand and assured distribution. The Committee believes
that continued research into these technologies is necessary to
develop a wide range of micro- and nanotechnology-enabled
mobile military energy technologies. Therefore, the Committee
encourages the Department to continue research related to micro
technology energy.
Prototype Integration Facility [PIF].--The Army Prototype
Integration Facility [PIF] remains a key, award-winning
enterprise asset. The Committee notes that since 2002, the PIF
has executed in excess of $2,600,000,000 in rapid response,
quick reaction, and high-priority weapons system hardware and
services support to the warfighter. The PIF does not receive
mission or program budget funds and relies on customer funding
to execute specific weapon system program requirements. The
Committee encourages the Army to continue to support upgrades
to the PIF, including an enterprise resource planning system
that will increase productivity, reduce overall costs, improve
schedules and tracking, enhance cost accountability, and
support multiple warfighter rapid response tasks.
Soldier-Worn Battery Technology.--The Committee encourages
the Department to continue to develop and improve soldier-worn
technology that reduces the weight a soldier carries while also
integrating force protection equipment and electronics to
reduce power consumption in combat situations.
Blast-Resistant Fuel Tanks.--The Committee understands that
the Army has launched an occupant-centric survivability
technology development program aimed at increasing
survivability for all major vehicle systems, to include fuel
systems. The Committee encourages the Army to develop blast-
resistant fuel tank technologies leveraging fully modernized
technologies for its combat vehicles modernization and reset.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ocean Renewable Energy.--The Committee commends the Navy's
efforts to support ocean renewable energy testing, research,
development, and deployment for maritime security systems,
support at-sea surveillance and communications systems, and
further opportunities to reduce the cost of energy and increase
energy security at coastal Department of Defense facilities.
The Committee encourages the Navy to continue its investments
in developing ocean renewable energy technologies and to
coordinate with the Department of Energy and designated
National Marine Renewable Energy Centers for ocean renewable
energy demonstration activities at or near Department of
Defense facilities. The Committee understands the Navy's goal
is to produce 50 percent of its shore-based energy requirements
from alternative sources by 2020 and notes that deepwater
offshore wind and other renewable energy sources could offer
advantages as an electricity source for Navy facilities. Not
later than 90 days after enactment of this act, the Department
shall provide a briefing to the congressional defense
committees on current and future programs related to ocean
renewable energy research and development activities and
provide an analysis of the locations within the United States
that such activities would be viable.
Automated Test and Re-Test.--The Navy's automated test and
re-test [ATRT] program was initiated to focus on reducing test
time, fielding higher-quality software and promoting the re-use
of tests and software. The Committee is aware that application
of ATRT has dramatically reduced system and subsystem test
execution times and costs while conducting more thorough
testing. Recognizing these benefits, the Navy's Program
Executive Officer for Integrated Warfare Systems 1.0 directed
each agency under his purview to integrate ATRT into their
processes and standard operation procedures. These cost
reductions and efficiencies should be implemented Navy-wide and
the Committee expects to see the billions of dollars of savings
reflected in the Department's fiscal year 2014 budget
submission and the future years defense program.
Next Generation Jammer [NGJ] Development.--The fiscal year
2013 request includes $187,024,000 for Research, Development,
Test and Evaluation for the Navy NGJ program. Due to a delay in
the technology development phase that was scheduled for fiscal
year 2012 but has now moved to late fiscal year 2013, the
Committee recommends a reduction of $20,000,000. In addition,
the Committee directs the Government Accountability Office to
conduct a review of the program by May 2013 to determine if
there are redundancies across the services and assess whether
this effort should become a joint service solution.
New Design Submarine Development.--The fiscal year 2013
request includes $165,230,000 for Research, Development, Test
and Evaluation for the Navy's New Design Submarine program.
Included in the request is $99,868,000 to begin development of
a new Virginia-class Payload Module [VPM]. The Committee is
concerned that increasing the Virginia-class submarine size by
one-third to accommodate a 93.7-foot module in the submarine's
center will result in instability to proven submarine design,
disruption to a stable production line, and add significant
cost risk. Preliminary cost estimates indicate development
alone will be $800,000,000. The Committee is also concerned
with the lack of defined requirements and cost estimate for an
Acquisition Category [ACAT] I Major Defense Acquisition
Programs [MDAPs] modification. For example, it is not yet clear
what payloads would be carried, how many VPM's are required,
and how the VPM may alter the Virginia-class concept of
operations. In addition, VPM will not go on contract until late
fiscal year 2013. For these reasons, the Committee finds it is
premature to invest nearly $100,000,000 into this new program
and recommends a reduction of $90,000,000 to the request. The
Committee directs the remaining funds to be used to validate
the VPM requirement and cost estimate with the Joint
Requirement Oversight Council, to ensure the VPM program is
subject to the capability and acquisition rigor, typical of an
ACAT I MDAP.
Ship Contract Design/Live Fire Test and Evaluation.--The
fiscal year 2013 request includes $196,737,000 for Research,
Development, Test and Evaluation for Ship Contract Design/Live
Fire Test and Evaluation. This program is experiencing delays
in the development phase related to the Ship to Shore connector
and is carrying large unobligated balances forward from fiscal
year 2012 to fiscal year 2013. Therefore, the Committee
encourages the Navy to apply these unobligated balances toward
the alternative shock test program to bridge the alternative
shock test program's fiscal year 2013 funding gap. The
Committee understands that the alternative shock trial testing
is safer for the environment, more cost and time effective, and
leverages commercial off-the-shelf technology.
Multimission Maritime Aircraft [MMA] Development
Concurrency.--The fiscal year 2013 request includes
$421,102,000 for Research, Development, Test and Evaluation for
the Navy MMA program. The MMA program is currently in the
development phase scheduled to complete late fiscal year 2013.
The Committee is concerned with concurrency in development
since, in addition to the baseline development, the program is
requesting to begin spiral one and spiral two post development
programs. Therefore, the Committee recommends a reduction of
$27,000,000 to this program, and directs the Secretary of the
Navy to create a Joint Requirement Oversight Council approved
modernization roadmap to validate the additional capabilities
required for MMA.
Industrial Preparedness.--The fiscal year 2013 budget
request proposes $54,879,000 for the Navy's Industrial
Preparedness effort. This program funds the development of
manufacturing technologies intended to improve the productivity
and responsiveness of the U.S. defense industrial base. The
Committee recommends an additional $20,000,000 above the
request to accelerate shipbuilding affordability initiatives
and expects the Navy to allocate overall program shipbuilding
affordability funding proportionally to the following major
shipbuilding categories: aircraft carriers, large surface
combatants, small surface combatants, attack submarines, and
amphibious warfare ships.

Air Force Application of Small Business Innovative Research
[SBIR].--During the detailed review of the fiscal year 2013
budget submission, the Committee noted a questionably
inconsistent sourcing of funds from line items within the
Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Air Force [RDT&E,
AF] appropriation to fund SBIR. Review of the initial data
revealed two trends: (1) space programs were heavily sourced to
fund SBIR while other portfolios were not taxed, and (2) some
programs were sourced higher than the standard 2.7 to 3.1
percent. SBIR should be calculated and applied evenly based on
extramural percentages, but it appears the Air Force does not
follow this standard calculation procedure.
After reviewing more detailed data provided by the Air
Force, the Committee found 15 fiscal year 2012 programs were
sourced to fund SBIR between 3.7 and 9.6 percent with one
program actually sourced 100 percent. Space programs accounted
for 53 percent of these programs. In the fiscal year 2011
appropriation, 17 programs were sourced between 3.5 and 15.3
percent with eight of these programs, or 47 percent, falling
within the space portfolio. The Committee notes that space-
related line items in the RDT&E, AF make up 15 percent of the
total line items and is concerned that they are
disproportionately taxed to fund SBIR.
The Committee is also concerned that the Air Force is using
SBIR to circumvent the congressional reprogramming approval
process. By sourcing funds through SBIR and below threshold
reprogrammings, the Air Force has, in the cases of Joint
National Training Center, Advanced Communication Systems, B-52
Squadrons, Aircraft Engine Component Improvement Program, and
Information Systems Security Program, reduced the programs past
the point that triggers congressional reprogramming approval.
The Committee directs the Assistant Secretary of the Air
Force for Financial Management to review the current Air Force
SBIR sourcing process, develop and implement corrective
actions, and within 180 days of enactment of this act provide a
report to the congressional defense committees describing the
origin of the problem and the corrective actions the Air Force
plans to implement to ensure these violations do not occur in
the future.
Advanced Composite Research and Development.--The Committee
encourages the Secretary of the Air Force to conduct a program
for advanced composite research and development for aerospace
vehicles to demonstrate the ability of advanced composite
technology to expand the flight envelope and improve the
performance and affordability of current and future aerospace
platforms, including unmanned aerial vehicles.
Sensors Research by Air Force Minority Leaders Program.--
The Committee encourages the Air Force Research Laboratory to
carry out sensors research activities conducted by the Air
Force Minority Leaders program for research in the disciplines
of materials and processing, sensors, and related enabling
academic specialties, and to meet critical defense
capabilities, science and technology, future workforce, and
technical program objectives for the United States Air Force.
Pilot Hearing Protection.--The Committee encourages the Air
Force to leverage advances in active noise reduction devices
developed by the Combating Terrorism Technology Support program
to advance hearing protection for pilots using legacy helmet
models.
Aerial Internet Protocol Networking.--The Committee is
aware of the Air Force research and development efforts to help
address complex problems in aerial Internet protocol [IP]
networking, to include ensuring IP-based networks deliver
rapid, reliable, real-time tactical information. The Committee
believes standardization of the IP-based architecture could
provide tangible benefit to the warfighter through enhanced
tactical situational awareness, improved combat lethality and
increased force protection. The Air Force is encouraged to
expedite further operational testing of this new capability.
Nuclear Weapons Support.--In previous budget submissions,
the Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Air Force
[RDT&E, AF] Nuclear Weapons Support line item contained a
number of development weapon system programs. In fiscal year
2013, the Air Force transferred all development weapon system
programs to more appropriate line items leaving only support
funding in the Nuclear Weapons Support line item. The Committee
notes that the planned fiscal year 2013 activities are very
similar to activities performed by other command functions. Air
Combat Command and Air Mobility Command perform the same
acquisition insight and weapon system oversight role utilizing
the Operation and Maintenance, Air Force account. The Committee
believes the Air Force Nuclear Weapons Center should be
normalized as part of the Air Force command structure and
should be funded similar to other command units. Therefore, the
Committee transfers $25,713,000 from RDT&E, AF to Operation and
Maintenance, Air Force.
Acquisition and Management Support.--With the Air Force's
implementation of efficiencies and overall reduction to
programs in the fiscal year 2013 budget request, the Committee
notes a disproportionate growth in the Acquisition and
Management Support line item. This line item, which mainly
funds acquisition support and oversight, grows 32.5 percent
over the fiscal year 2012 appropriated amount. After
specifically questioning the growth of this program, the Air
Force identified that $4,800,000 was added for a new contract-
writing information system called Electronic Acquisition
Services Environment. To ensure future transparency and enable
oversight of this new information system, the Committee
transfers funding for the Electronic Acquisition Services
Environment into a new line item. In addition, since the Air
Force did not adequately justify the growth in support costs,
the Committee recommends a reduction of $5,100,000, which is
consistent with the fiscal year 2012 appropriated level. At the
Committee's request, the Air Force provided additional detail
for the training and support costs funded under this program.
The Committee believes that some of the training courses
identified are more properly funded from the Operation and
Maintenance, Air Force appropriation. The Committee notes that
some of the justified efforts, for example cost estimating, are
duplicative of efforts more properly performed by other Air
Force organizations. Therefore, the Committee directs the Air
Force Administrative Assistant to perform a comprehensive
review of the activities performed under this line item to
ensure they are properly funded within the Research,
Development, Test and Evaluation, Air Force appropriation, and
to ensure they do not duplicate efforts more properly performed
by other Air Force organizations to include Air Force Material
Command and Air Force Financial Management. The Committee also
directs the Air Force Administrative Assistant provide a
report, within 180 days of enactment of this act, providing the
outcome of the review and a summary of corrective actions
taken.
B-52 Strategic Radar Replacement [SR2].--The Committee is
aware the Air Force conducted a lengthy analysis of
alternatives in 2011 to address a Strategic Radar Replacement
[SR2] for the B-52H. The existing APQ-166 radar was produced in
the 1960s, has a 20 to 30 hour mean-time between failure rate,
and capability limitations. The Committee understands that the
current APQ-166 radar is costly to operate and maintain.
Therefore, the Committee encourages the Secretary of the Air
Force to reconsider the decision to terminate the SR2 program.
Air Force Command, Control, Intelligence, Surveillance, and
Reconnaissance [C2ISR] Fleet.--The Committee is aware that the
Air Force's critical manned C2ISR aircraft are high-demand
assets facing low availability rates, end-of-life issues, and
growing sustainment costs. The Committee is also aware that the
Air Force recently completed an analysis of alternatives for
recapitalization of the ground moving target indicator
capability currently met by the Joint Surveillance and Target
Attack Radar System [JSTARS] and that the Air Force has
deliberately chosen to delay recapitalization due to fiscal
limitations. Recognizing that the entire C2ISR fleet will need
to be recapitalized around the same time, the Committee
encourages the Secretary of the Air Force to explore a holistic
replacement approach and perform a cost benefit analysis that
takes into account operational cost savings from a new, modern
aircraft with a common logistics chain, and common training.
The Committee believes that significant cost savings can be
garnered by recapitalizing the fleet with a single, common
platform.
Communication, Navigation and Surveillance/Air Traffic
Management [CNS/ATM].--In the fiscal year 2013 budget request,
the Air Force proposes to terminate the C-130H Avionics
Modernization Program [AMP] and begin a modification program
that addresses mainly compliance with international navigation
standards for flying in civil airspace, which is the most
pressing upgrade for these airframes. While the Committee
supports the Air Force's decision to pursue a less costly
solution, the Committee is concerned that the requirements for
a CNS/ATM solution for the C-130H aircraft are not final and
that the requirements may grow to create another costly
modernization program. The Committee encourages the Air Force
to find an affordable CNS/ATM solution that ensures near-term
modernization of the C-130H aircraft.
Military Global Positioning System User Equipment.--The
budget request contains $96,840,000 for continued development
of Military Global Positioning System [GPS] User Equipment
[MGUE]. The MGUE program is necessary to allow the armed forces
to take advantage of new signals and other capabilities, such
as substantially greater resistance to jamming of GPS signals,
that are integrated on the latest generations of GPS
satellites.
The MGUE program is a follow-on to the Modernized User
Equipment program begun in 2006, with three contractors
performing risk-reduction activities. The budget request
proposes to continue funding three contractors for technology
development efforts while delaying a production decision until
fiscal year 2017, as opposed to the previous plan to select the
best two proposals for more advanced development activities.
The Committee believes that delaying a down-select in
contractors is not justified under the current fiscal
environment. Investments in this important technology should be
prioritized to the best performers in a competitive
environment. Therefore, the Committee recommends a reduction of
$20,000,000, which will sustain robust funding for continued
development of the two most competitive proposals in fiscal
year 2013.
Space Modernization Initiative.--Last year, the Air Force
initiated the Evolutionary Acquisition for Space Efficiency
[EASE] strategy to stabilize the industrial base, manage cost,
and increase capabilities for selected satellite programs. One
facet of the program is to maintain a steady investment in
capability insertion programs, now known as the Space
Modernization Initiative [SMI], to upgrade performance while
avoiding obsolescence and diminishing manufacturing sources.
The fiscal year 2013 budget makes substantial reductions to
SMI: from fiscal years 2013 through 2017, the budget request
cuts SMI funding by more than $820,000,000 from the Advanced
Extremely High Frequency [AEHF] program and more than
$340,000,000 from the Space Based Infrared System [SBIRS].
While the fiscal constraints that led to reductions in SMI
are well understood, the Committee believes that limiting
investment in this area increases the risk that the government
will be locked into old technologies, suppliers, and concepts.
Therefore, the Committee recommends an increase of $30,000,000
for AEHF SMI, to be used for radiation hardened manufacturing,
hosted payloads, ``design for affordability,'' and related
efforts and an increase of $20,000,000 for SBIRS SMI, to be
used for alternative overhead persistent infrared technologies,
hosted payloads, ``design for affordability,'' and related
efforts.
The Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force to
provide the congressional defense committees with a report
detailing how the additional SMI funds will be used not fewer
than 30 days prior to the obligation of any of these funds.
Transfer of Civilian Pay.--In fiscal year 2012, the Air
Force requested, and Congress approved, the transfer of
civilian pay for the Space and Missile Systems Center [SMC]
from the operation and maintenance appropriation to the
Research, Development, Test and Evaluation [RDT&E]
appropriation. The Committee understands that the Air Force may
be evaluating this transfer as a model for other organizations.
The Committee directs the Government Accountability Office
[GAO] to submit a report to the congressional defense
committees on the impacts of transferring civilian salaries to
the RDT&E appropriation. At a minimum, the report shall address
the extent to which the use of RDT&E funds for SMC civilian pay
provides advantages or disadvantages in the management of the
civilian workforce, the adequacy of financial controls to
insure that RDT&E funds intended for civilian pay are not
transferred to other purposes, and any areas of efficiency or
risk that future transfers may entail.
The Secretary of the Air Force is directed not to transfer
civilian pay for any organization with greater than 20 civilian
billets from operation and maintenance to RDT&E funds until the
GAO report is submitted to the congressional defense
committees. The Secretary may waive this restriction upon
certification to the congressional defense committees that such
a transfer is necessary for the interests of national defense.
Space Launch.--The Committee remains concerned about the
rising costs of space launch and recognizes and supports the
Department's efforts to certify New Entrant space launch
providers to enable competition and reduce program costs.
The Committee will continue to closely review the
Department's upcoming acquisition of booster cores to ensure it
enables competition and reduces costs. To meet these goals, the
Committee reiterates its view expressed in Senate Report 112-
77, which accompanied the Senate-reported version of the
Defense Appropriations Act, 2012, which urged the Department
``to retain flexibility with its block-buy acquisition strategy
as opportunities for competition by new launch entrants become
available.'' To achieve this flexibility, the Committee: (1)
encourages the Department to provide the Committee within 90
days of enactment of this act with an estimated date by which
one or more new entrants is expected to complete the new
entrant certification process; and (2) encourages the
department to see that any sole-source launch contract ensures
that new entrants can fully compete for EELV missions once one
or more new entrants complete the new entrant certification
process.
The Committee also directs the Secretary of the Air Force
to provide a written report to the congressional defense
committees within 90 days of enactment of this act that
describes the launch missions, beyond the Deep Space Climate
Observatory mission and the Space Test Program, which will be
open for competition by certified new launch entrants.
Space Launch System.--The Committee understands that
National Aeronautics and Space Administration [NASA] is
developing a Space Launch System with significantly greater
lift capability than any rocket currently available on the
world market, capable of carrying an extremely large fairing
that could accommodate payloads of unprecedented weight and
size. The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense, in
consultation with the Director of the National Reconnaissance
Office and the NASA Administrator, to provide a report to the
congressional defense committee within 180 days of enactment of
this act on the potential national security uses and associated
launch costs of the Space Launch System. The study should
address the utility of the system as currently envisioned, and
any modifications or additions that would substantially
increase that utility. The report shall be classified with an
unclassified executive summary.

Conventional Prompt Global Strike.--The fiscal year 2013
budget request includes $110,383,000 to continue the Prompt
Global Strike program, a decrease from $174,830,000 in fiscal
year 2012. The Committee recognizes the significance of the
research and development of hypersonic technology for
employment in a conventional prompt global strike weapon and
notes the United States Army Space and Missile Defense Command/
Army Forces Strategic Command's successful intermediate range
test flight of the Advanced Hypersonic Weapon [AHW] conducted
on November 17, 2011. The Army's successful flight test
followed two failed test flights of the Defense Advanced
Research Project Agency's Hypersonic Test Vehicle-2 [HTV-2].
The Committee also understands the Department of Defense plans
to develop a new hypersonic vehicle design which includes the
development of a new booster and payload delivery vehicle.
Considering the recent test outcomes and the fiscal
constraints under which the Department is operating, the
Committee believes the Department should focus efforts and
resources on the initiative that achieved its flight test and
data collection expectations. Therefore, the Committee
recommends an increase of $90,000,000 to continue planning for
and completing a second, longer range flight test of AHW. The
Committee also directs that no funds are to be used for design
or development efforts which are intended to support a
significant departure from HTV-2 or AHW payload delivery
vehicle designs.
Data to Decisions Initiative.--The Committee supports the
goals for the Data to Decisions Initiative but notes there is
duplication with similar research on mission-driven data
analysis and information management research funded by the Air
Force and other services. The Committee provides a total of
$9,700,000 and encourages the program to incorporate data
quality research supported by the Air Force Research Lab for
managing large data sets resulting from persistent
surveillance.
Software Coding.--The Committee encourages the Department
of Defense to accelerate efforts under way to conduct secure
software coding experiments and data analysis to determine
which secure coding guidelines are practiced and effective and
to develop a template for scalable cyber modeling and
simulation. These experiments could improve the understanding
of the cyber threat and mitigation of the threat, increase the
military's ability to fight and survive during cyber attacks,
measure the state of cyber security, and explore and exploit
new ideas in cyber warfare.
Unmanned Aerial System Common Development.--The Committee
notes the passage of recent legislation directing the Federal
Aviation Administration [FAA] to assess the suitability of
integrating unmanned aerial systems [UAS] into the national
airspace through the establishment of test ranges for civil
use. The Committee recognizes that the FAA managed test ranges
will lead to policies and standards governing future domestic
UAS operations, including Department of Defense [DOD]
operations. The Committee fully funds the request for Unmanned
Aerial System Common Development and expects DOD to share the
benefit of their UAS research, testing and experience with the
FAA and NASA to support the FAA's development and demonstration
of common UAS standards, architecture and technologies to
ensure a consistent, nationwide approach to airspace
integration.
MISSILE DEFENSE AGENCY
Sea-Based X-Band Radar [SBX].--The fiscal year 2013 budget
request includes no funds to develop and sustain the software
necessary to maintain SBX operational capability for ballistic
missile defense. The Committee has been informed by the Missile
Defense Agency that while SBX will be placed in a limited test
support status in fiscal year 2013, SBX remains a critical
element of ballistic missile defense and is intended for recall
to active operational status as needed, as was demonstrated
when North Korea attempted to launch a satellite earlier this
year. Therefore, the Committee does not believe it is prudent
to neglect software development sustainment and recommends an
additional $20,000,000 in Research, Development, Test and
Evaluation, Defense-Wide only for SBX software development and
sustainment.
Justification of Classified Programs.--The Committee notes
the poor briefing materials in support of classified programs
despite requests made by the Committee for the inclusion of
specific information. Therefore, the Committee does not believe
that the budget request for these programs was fully and
appropriately justified and recommends an undistributed
reduction of $13,600,000. The Director of the Missile Defense
Agency is directed to submit a list of classified projects
against which this reduction is levied not later than 90 days
after enactment of this act.
Directed Energy.--The fiscal year 2013 budget request
includes $44,560,000 for a new Directed Energy Research program
following the termination of the Airborne Laser Test Bed
[ALTB]. The Committee notes that there are currently no less
than five separate directed energy science and technology
programs ongoing in the Department of Defense, none of which
have clearly defined and funded transition plans into programs
of record. In addition, the Committee understands that the
Missile Defense Agency intends to award a noncompetitive, sole-
source contract for integration of the yet-to-be-developed
directed energy capability onto a high altitude long endurance
platform that itself is currently under development. The
Committee questions both the operational relevance of this
scientific program, as well as the overall acquisition strategy
during times of fiscal constraint. Therefore, the Committee
recommends no funding for the Directed Energy program.
Advanced Remote Sensor Technology [ARST].--The fiscal year
2013 budget request includes $55,760,000 for ARST, a fiscal
year 2013 new start initiative. The Committee notes the lack of
an acquisition strategy and recommends no funding for this
program.
Airborne Weapons Layer [AWL].--The Committee notes that the
Air Force and MDA failed to submit the AWL cost benefit
analysis [CBA] to the congressional defense committees with the
fiscal year 2013 budget submission. The Committee understands
that the analysis is partially complete. Therefore, the
Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force and the
Director of the Missile Defense Agency to brief the
congressional defense committees not later than 90 days after
enactment of this act on their findings to date.
