BACKGROUND 

PURPOSE OF THE BILL

This bill makes appropriations for the military functions of the 

Department of Defense for the period October 1, 2018, through 

September 30, 2019. 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 

April 11, 2018, and concluded them on June 6, 2018, after nine separate sessions. The subcommittee heard testimony from representatives of the Department of Defense and the Intelligence Community. 

SUMMARY OF THE BILL

The Committee recommendation of $667,980,036,000 includes 

funding to develop, maintain, and equip the military forces of the 

United States and for other purposes. 

The fiscal year 2019 budget request for activities funded in the 

Department of Defense appropriations bill totals $668,409,933,000 

in new budget authority, including $68,078,580,000 in overseas 

contingency operations funding and $514,000,000 in mandatory 

spending. 

In fiscal year 2018, the Congress appropriated $652,360,608,000 

for activities funded in this bill. This amount includes 

$582,274,519,000 in base appropriations and $65,166,000,000 in 

overseas contingency operations appropriations provided in Public 

Law 115–141 and $4,920,089,000 in emergency appropriations provided in Public Laws 115–96 and 115–123. The Committee recommends that funds requested for Coast Guard overseas contingency operations be appropriated directly to the Department of 

Homeland Security. 

The Committee recommendation in this bill is $15,619,428,000 

above the amount provided in fiscal year 2018 and $429,897,000 

below the amount requested for fiscal year 2019.

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 the National 

Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019. 

CLASSIFIED PROGRAM ADJUSTMENTS

The Committee recommends adjustments to certain classified 

programs, as explained in the classified annex to the Committee’s 

report. 

BUDGET JUSTIFICATION MATERIALS FOR SPECIAL ACCESS PROGRAMS

The Committee recommends adjustments to the budget justification materials provided in the Special Access Program Annual Report to Congress submitted in accordance with Title 10, United 

States Code, Section 119(a)(1), as explained in the classified annex 

to the Committee’s report. It is expected that these adjustments 

will be incorporated in future budget submissions. 

DEFINITION OF PROGRAM, PROJECT AND ACTIVITY

For the purposes of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit 

Control Act of 1985 (Public Law 99–177), as amended by the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Reaffirmation Act of 

1987 (Public Law 100–119), and by the Budget Enforcement Act of 

1990 (Public Law 101–508), the terms ‘‘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, 2019, the related classified annexes 

and Committee reports, and P–1 and R–1 budget justification documents as subsequently modified by congressional action. 
7 

The following exception to the above definition shall apply: the 

military personnel and the operation and maintenance accounts, 

for which the term ‘‘program, project, and activity’’ is defined as the 

appropriations accounts contained in the Department of Defense 

Appropriations Act. 

At the time the President submits the budget request for fiscal 

year 2020, the Secretary of Defense is directed to transmit to the 

congressional defense committees budget justification documents to 

be known as the ‘‘M–1’’ and ‘‘O–1’’ which shall identify, at the 

budget activity, activity group, and sub-activity group level, the 

amounts requested by the President to be appropriated to the Department of Defense for military personnel and operation and 

maintenance in any budget request, or amended budget request, 

for fiscal year 2020. 

REPROGRAMMING GUIDANCE

The Secretary of Defense is directed to continue to follow the reprogramming guidance for acquisition accounts as specified in the 

report accompanying the House version of the Department of Defense appropriations bill for fiscal year 2008 (House Report 110– 

279). The dollar threshold for reprogramming funds shall remain 

at $20,000,000 for military personnel; $20,000,000 for operation 

and maintenance; $20,000,000 for procurement; and $10,000,000 

for research, development, test and evaluation. 

Also, the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) is directed to 

continue to provide the congressional defense committees annual 

DD Form 1416 reports for titles I and II and quarterly, spreadsheet-based DD Form 1416 reports for service and defense-wide accounts in titles III and IV of this act. Reports for titles III and IV 

shall comply with guidance specified in the explanatory statement 

accompanying the Department of Defense Appropriations Act for 

Fiscal Year 2006. The Department shall continue to follow the limitation that prior approval reprogrammings are set at either the 

specified dollar threshold or 20 percent of the procurement or research, development, test and evaluation line, whichever is less. 

These thresholds are cumulative from the base for reprogramming 

value as modified by any adjustments. Therefore, if the combined 

value of transfers into or out of a military personnel (M–1), an operation and maintenance (O–1), a procurement (P–1), or a research, 

development, test and evaluation (R–1) line exceeds the identified 

threshold, the Secretary of Defense must submit a prior approval 

reprogramming to the congressional defense committees. In addition, guidelines on the application of prior approval reprogramming 

procedures for congressional special interest items are established 

elsewhere in this report. 

FUNDING INCREASES

The funding increases outlined in the tables for each appropriation account shall be provided only for the specific purposes indicated in the tables. 
8 

CONGRESSIONAL SPECIAL INTEREST ITEMS

Items for which additional funds have been recommended or 

items for which funding is specifically reduced as shown in the tables detailing Committee recommended adjustments or in paragraphs using the phrase ‘‘only for’’ or ‘‘only to’’ are congressional 

special interest items for the purpose of the Base for Reprogramming [DD Form 1414]. Each of these items must be carried on the 

DD Form 1414 at the stated amount, as specifically addressed in 

elsewhere in this report. 

COMMITTEE INITIATIVES

The Committee has included funding above the fiscal year 2019 

President’s budget request for several programmatic initiatives in 

support of the 2018 National Defense Strategy [NDS]. While the 

NDS recognizes the persistent nature of terrorist threats and the 

need to counter those threats, it also represents a significant shift 

toward long-term, strategic competition and operations in contested 

domains. Additionally, rapid technological advancement and the 

commercial availability of increasingly sophisticated capabilities 

presents challenges to the U.S. military advantage against state 

and non-state actors alike. In order to maintain overmatch against 

adversaries across the domain spectrum, the Committee recommends additional investment in the following areas: basic research, hypersonics, directed energy, artificial intelligence, microelectronics, missile defense, cybersecurity, and complimentary aspects including test and evaluation infrastructure. 

The Committee expects that the Department will sustain and 

support continued investments in these areas in the fiscal year 

2020 President’s budget request. Additionally, the Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to provide a spend plan for execution 

of the additional fiscal year 2019 resources provided for committee 

initiatives not later than 60 days following enactment of this act. 

Finally, the Committee directs that funds for these initiatives are 

to be competitively awarded or provided to programs that have received competitive awards in the past. 

MISSILE DEFENSE AGENCY

The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request for the Missile 

Defense Agency [MDA] includes $9,915,304,000 in the Operation 

and Maintenance, Defense-Wide; Procurement-Defense-Wide; Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Defense-Wide and Military Construction appropriation accounts, a $1,605,748,000 decrease from amounts appropriated for the MDA in fiscal year 2018 

in the Department of Defense Missile Defeat and Defense Enhancements Appropriations Act, 2018 (Public Law 115–96) and in the 

Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2018 (Public Law 115– 

141). 

Addressing Future Threats.—Subsequent to submission of the fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request, the Director, MDA provided the congressional defense committees a list of unfunded requirements for MDA in fiscal year 2019. Noting that rapid technological progress has increased threat complexity, to include advanced capabilities being developed by rogue nations and emerging 
9 

threats such as hypersonic glide vehicles, the Committee recommends an increase of $1,198,648,000 for MDA. 

MDA’s objective is to increase missile defense capability against 

advanced, complex threats by integrating multi-domain systems 

into its battle management control system while maximizing costeffectiveness. Therefore, the Committee recommends increases to 

support programs that further that objective. Specifically, the Committee recommends $100,500,000 above the budget request to initiate a Missile Defense Tracking System [MTS], which the Director, 

MDA identified to the Committee as MDA’s top unfunded priority. 

The Committee understands that a MTS operational prototype 

would provide a responsive, flexible capability from space to detect 

and track both conventional ballistic missiles and emerging 

threats, such as hypersonic glide vehicles. The Committee further 

notes that funds appropriated for MTS in fiscal year 2018 are being 

utilized to support MTS concept designs, but MDA has not budgeted for a MTS acquisition program. Therefore, the Committee directs the Director, MDA, as the Ballistic Missile Defense Acquisition Executive, to provide the congressional defense committees a 

MTS acquisition strategy and MDA’s associated cost estimate with 

the fiscal year 2020 President’s budget request. The MTS acquisition strategy shall include the MTS requirement, contracting approach, test plan, and identification of programmatic and technical 

risk. 

The MDA Comptroller/Chief Financial Officer is directed to certify full funding of the acquisition strategy in the fiscal year 2020 

President’s budget request, and the Director, Cost Assessment and 

Program Evaluation [CAPE], is directed to provide an Independent 

Cost Estimate [ICE] for MTS to the congressional defense committees with the fiscal year 2020 President’s budget request. The Committee also recommends $46,100,000 above the budget request to 

accelerate the development of critical interceptor technology in the 

areas of propulsion, materials and lethality to address hypersonic 

threats. 

Additionally, the Committee notes that a boost phase kill ability 

could provide increased missile defense capability and that directed 

energy is a key technology required to ensure a boost phase kill 

ability. Therefore, the Committee recommends $85,000,000 above 

the budget request to continue research and development of three 

separate laser scaling efforts with the goal of demonstrating a 500 

kilowatt laser by 2021, and a best of breed of 1 megawatt laser capability by 2023. The Director, MDA, as the Ballistic Missile Defense Acquisition Executive, is directed to provide an acquisition 

strategy for a boost phase missile defense capability and the associated MDA cost estimate with the fiscal year 2020 President’s budget request. The acquisition strategy shall include the requirement, 

contracting approach, test plan, and identification of programmatic 

and technical risk. 

The MDA Comptroller/Chief Financial Officer is directed to certify full funding of the acquisition strategy in the fiscal year 2020 

President’s budget request, and the Director, CAPE is directed to 

provide an ICE for a boost phase missile defense capability to the 

congressional defense committees with the fiscal year 2020 President’s budget. The Committee notes that consistent with MDA’s Di-
10 

rected Energy Roadmap, as submitted to the Committee with the 

fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request, the Laser Scaling program is separate and distinct from MDA’s Low Power Laser Demonstrator program [LPLD]. The Committee further notes that MDA 

has awarded three design contracts for LPLD and plans to 

downselect to one performer in late 2018 following a Preliminary 

Design Review. The Committee finds this approach to be technically risky. Therefore, consistent with the Department of Defense 

Appropriations Act, 2018, the Committee recommends an additional $78,000,000, which is the amount identified by MDA as required for LPLD to retain three performers through Critical Design 

Review in late 2019, thereby reducing risk for a LPLD demonstration in fiscal year 2023. 

The Committee recommends several additional increases for the 

Missile Defense Agency, including $100,000,000 above the budget 

request to advance MDA’s compliance with the Department of Defense Cybersecurity Discipline Implementation Plan to protect 

MDA systems in highly-contested cybersecurity threat environments; $126,000,000 above the budget request to provide improved 

discrimination capabilities and high-fidelity digital modeling and 

simulation to counter emergent threats to the homeland, forward 

deployed forces and allies; $93,500,000 to accelerate the integration 

of mobile sensors; and $102,367,000 for MDA’s test enterprise, including funds to replace obsolete airborne sensors. 

Aegis Ashore Poland.—The Committee understands that completion of the Aegis Ashore site in Poland will slip by at least 1 year, 

delaying installation of the weapon system and transition of the capability to U.S. European Command. The Committee is concerned 

with this delay and recommends an additional $20,000,000 to continue combat system and combat structure adaptation, integration, 

installation, and testing. The Committee directs the Director, MDA, 

to submit to the congressional defense committees, with the fiscal 

year 2020 President’s budget request, an updated program baseline 

for Aegis Ashore Poland, to include revised cost estimates. The Director, CAPE, is directed to provide, with the fiscal year 2020 

President’s budget request, an Independent Cost Estimate for Aegis 

Ashore Poland. 

MDA Acquisition Workforce and Contracts.—The Committee 

notes that MDA has utilized the Department of Defense Acquisition Workforce Development Fund [DAWDF] in support of hiring 

and developing entry level employees in critical career fields as 

part of its workforce pipeline strategy since 2009. The Director, 

MDA is directed to provide to the congressional defense committees, not later than with submission of the fiscal year 2020 President’s budget request, a historical application of DAWDF funding 

by MDA, as well as identify additional requirements for MDA’s acquisition workforce due to increased acquisition workload. 

Additionally, the Committee is concerned with MDA’s increasing 

reliance on Undefinitized Contract Actions [UCAs]. The Committee 

notes that UCAs are contract actions for which the contract terms, 

specifications, or price are not agreed upon before contractor performance commences, and that UCAs should be used only when a 

requirement needs to be met quickly and there is insufficient time 

to use normal contracting vehicles. However, the Committee notes 
11 

that the MDA continues to utilize UCAs for recurring annual contracts, and that MDA struggles to definitize UCAs within the 

definitization schedule set forth in the Defense Federal Acquisition 

Regulation Supplement [DFARS]. Therefore, the Committee directs 

the MDA Director of Contracts to provide the congressional defense 

committees, not later than with submission of the fiscal year 2020 

President’s budget request, a briefing on contract types used by 

MDA by program, to include historic application of UCAs and rationale for each UCA (such as the untimely receipt of proposals, acquisition workforce shortfalls, schedule pressures and emerging requirements), definitization schedules, final negotiated contract values compared to initial estimates, and contract strategies for acquisition programs going forward. 

Finally, the Committee notes that information previously requested by the Committee regarding several acquisition programs 

has not yet been provided. Therefore, the Committee directs that 

not more than $15,000,000 may be obligated for MDA Management 

Headquarters in fiscal year 2019 until the information requested is 

provided. 

ARMY CROSS FUNCTIONAL TEAMS

In October 2017, the Army announced its intent to establish a 

new Army Futures Command, which is intended to synchronize efforts among the other Army Commands through Cross-Functional 

Teams [CFT] to advance the Army’s six modernization priorities: 

long-range precision fires, air and missile defense, next generation 

combat vehicle, future vertical lift, network modernization, and soldier lethality. These eight CFTs will report directly to the Under 

Secretary and Vice Chief of Staff of the Army and work to compress the modernization and procurement timelines by involving 

the end user, defining requirements, integrating, prototyping, and 

validating a concept prior to low-rate initial production. 

While the Committee is supportive of these prioritization efforts 

by the Army in accordance with the April 2018 Army Modernization Strategy, it is concerned with the timeliness and adequacy of 

the budget justification materials presented to the Committee. The 

Committee is still awaiting an above threshold reprogramming request from the Department to realign fiscal year 2018 funding and 

received a request from the Army to realign science and technology 

funding and support additional fiscal year 2019 funding for CFT 

priorities very late in the budget process. 

The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request includes 

$2,119,871,000 for Army CFT priorities within the Missile Procurement; Procurement of Ammunition; Other Procurement; and Research, Development, Test and Evaluation accounts, with the Army 

requesting an additional $416,953,000 above the budget request. 

The Committee understands that the fiscal year 2019 President’s 

budget request was developed before CFT plans, requirements, and 

acquisition strategies could be finalized and that several programs 

under CFT purview continue to work to complete these decision 

points. Given this fluctuation, the Committee recommends modest 

reductions to the programs within the CFT budget request while 

also providing an additional $127,737,000 for CFT science and 

technology efforts in anticipation of the Army’s need to realign 
12 

funding to resource future CFT efforts. In addition, the Committee 

recommends $75,400,000 above the budget request for the Army’s 

future vertical lift program to accelerate Capability Set One Future 

Attack Reconnaissance Aircraft development. 

The Committee looks forward to a continuing dialogue with the 

Army’s acquisition and CFT leadership in order to provide appropriate, executable resources for Army modernization priorities. 

INDIRECT FIRE PROTECTION CAPABILITY

The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request includes advance 

procurement totaling $173,204,000 for AIM–9X interceptors, MultiMission Launcher [MML] components, and ancillary costs. This is 

in addition to $50,056,000 of fiscal year 2018 advance procurement 

funding that remains unexecuted. The request also includes 

$208,740,000 for continued research, development, test and evaluation of the current Indirect Fire Protection Capability [IFPC] program of record. 

The Committee notes that following submission of the fiscal year 

2019 President’s budget request, the Army initiated reviews of the 

existing IFPC program of record and alternative courses of action 

[COA] prior to the upcoming milestone B decision. These include 

the pursuit and integration of an alternate interceptor to the currently proposed AIM–9X interceptor and modifications to the MML, 

as well as the analysis of at least two other distinct weapons systems. 

The Committee further notes that section 111 of S. 2987, the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019, directs the 

Army to deploy two batteries of an interim, fixed site cruise missile 

defense capability by September 30, 2020, in anticipation of deployment of the Army’s IFPC. 

The Committee supports the Army’s pursuit of this defensive capability, however, the Committee is concerned that the current 

budget request does not support any change in acquisition strategy 

or procurement of readily available interim defense capabilities. 

Therefore, the Secretary of the Army is directed to provide a report 

to the congressional defense committees, not later than 30 days following enactment of this act, which details the results of the 

Army’s internal review, revised acquisition strategy, and resulting 

resourcing requirements. The report shall also include: (1) analysis 

and recommendations on the COAs under review; (2) the supporting cost estimates for each of the COAs across the Future 

Years Defense Program [FYDP]; (3) a program schedule for the selected COA; (4) an analysis and recommendations for interim capabilities and a proposed acquisition schedule; (5) the proposed execution of current IFPC resources by appropriation, budget line, and 

project across the FYDP; and (6) a plan to resource any identified 

shortfalls for the selected program of record COA and interim capabilities that will be pursued. 

JOINT STRIKE FIGHTER

F–35 Production.—The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request includes 77 F–35 Joint Strike Fighters [JSF], 13 fewer than 

were provided in the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 
13 

2018 (Public Law 115–141). The Committee is encouraged that the 

budget request reflects planned procurement increases in the F– 

35C carrier variant for the Navy but is concerned that the Air 

Force continues to delay its stated goal to procure 60 F–35A 

variants in a single fiscal year. As a result, the Committee recommends an additional $120,000,000 in advance procurement for 

the F–35A in order to assist the Air Force in achieving full rate 

production quantities in fiscal year 2020. The Committee also recommends $796,000,000 for eight additional F–35C aircraft for the 

Navy and Marine Corps and $412,000,000 for four additional F– 

35B aircraft for the Marine Corps. The Committee understands the 

Under Secretary of Defense (Acquisition and Sustainment) is leading a comprehensive review of reducing the lifecycle costs of the F– 

35 program, including the near term unit flyaway costs. Further, 

the Committee understands that the recent production contract 

awards, including Lot 9 and 10, have consistently included lower 

unit flyaway costs than the budgeted amounts. Therefore, the Committee recommends unit cost reductions in fiscal year 2018 and 

2019 that are consistent with the savings negotiated in recent production contracts and the Under Secretary of Defense’s (Acquisition 

and Sustainment) targets for future production contracts. 

The Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2018 (Public 

Law 115–141) supported the Department’s request for 

$660,989,000 in advance procurement for economic order quantities 

of material and equipment for 207 U.S. F–35 aircraft to be procured in fiscal years 2019 and 2020. According to Joint Program 

Office [JPO] estimates, these funds provided in fiscal year 2018 

would save approximately $1,200,000,000 across U.S. and partner 

buys in fiscal years 2018 through 2020, with about half of this savings amount going toward U.S. aircraft buys. A recent analysis by 

the Director of the Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation 

[CAPE] concluded that anticipated U.S. savings from this approach 

would only be $300,000,000, about half of the prior estimates provided by the JPO. While these savings are still significant, as certified by the Under Secretary of Defense (Acquisition and 

Sustainment), the Committee is dismayed by the inaccuracy of the 

initial JPO estimates. Therefore, the F–35 Program Executive Officer is directed to provide a report to the congressional defense committees not later than 30 days after enactment of this act on an 

updated cost savings estimate on the economic order quantities 

procurement approach; an execution update on the $660,989,000 

for advance procurement provided in the Department of Defense 

Appropriations Act, 2018 (Public Law 115–141); an analysis of the 

CAPE estimate of lesser savings, and a plan for how the unrealized 

savings will be resourced in fiscal years 2019 and 2020. 

F–35 Continuous Capability Development and Delivery.—The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request includes $983,549,000 in 

research, development, test and evaluation for Continuous Capability Development and Delivery [C2D2], previously referred to as 

Follow-on Modernization, an increase of $395,328,000 or 67 percent, over amounts enacted in fiscal year 2018. The Committee 

notes that the F–35 C2D2 acquisition strategy is evolving and that 

its approval has slipped by one year. Further, the previously requested Independent Cost Estimate, system engineering plans, test 
14 

and evaluation master plan and acquisition program baselines for 

F–35 Follow-on Modernization elements have not yet been provided 

to Congress. Finally, the Committee notes that execution plans for 

fiscal year 2018 funding provided for F–35 Follow-on Modernization have changed. Therefore, the Committee recommends adjusting the fiscal year 2019 budget request for F–35 C2D2 to reflect actual fiscal year 2018 execution. In addition, the Under Secretary of 

Defense (Acquisition and Sustainment) and F–35 Program Executive Officer are directed to provide the F–35 C2D2 information previously requested in Senate Report 114–263, as soon as practicable. 

ADVANCED BATTLE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request supports the Air 

Force’s new approach to battle management, the Advanced Battle 

Management System [ABMS]. The Committee understands that 

the ABMS will be a decentralized network of platforms and sensors 

that will integrate battlefield surveillance information. The Committee is supportive of the Air Force’s new approach given the 

changing threat environment and need for resilient and survivable 

networks against near peer competitors. However, the Committee 

is concerned with the near-term risks in cancelling the Joint Surveillance and Target Attack Radar System [JSTARS] recapitalization program and time required to operationalize these new capabilities. As a result, the Committee fully funds the budget request 

for ABMS and recommends an additional $375,000,000 to address 

near-term risks, to include procurement funding for additional 

MQ–9 Reaper unmanned aerial vehicles and support of the battlefield airborne communications node mission; research, development, test and evaluation funding for radar and agile communications development; and operation and maintenance in the Air National Guard funding to continue to operate and sustain the legacy 

E–8 JSTARS fleet. Further, the Committee directs the Secretary of 

the Air Force to submit a report to the congressional defense committees not later than 90 days after enactment of this act on a revised ABMS plan and execution strategy, updated costs and schedules of each activity within the ABMS plan, and a gap and threat 

assessment of both the ground moving target indicator and battle 

management command and control mission areas. 

CIVILIAN PAY INCREASE

Section 749 of the Senate version of the Financial Services and 

General Government Appropriations bill (S. 3107), as reported on 

June 21, 2018, included a pay increase for civilian Federal employees of 1.9 percent in calendar year 2019. The Committee supports 

this government-wide provision and is evaluating the impact to the 

Department of Defense. In order to inform this assessment, the 

Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to provide the estimated cost of a 1.9 percent pay increase for calendar year 2019 by 

appropriation account to the House and Senate Appropriations 

Committees not later than July 31, 2018.

REPROGRAMMING GUIDANCE FOR MILITARY PERSONNEL ACCOUNTS

The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to submit the 

Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414) for each of the fiscal year 

2019 appropriation accounts not later than 60 days after the enactment of this act. The Secretary of Defense is prohibited from executing any reprogramming or transfer of funds for any purpose 

other than originally appropriated until the aforementioned report 

is submitted to the House and Senate Appropriations Committees. 

The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to use the normal 

prior approval reprogramming procedures to transfer funds in the 

services’ military personnel accounts between budget activities in 

excess of $20,000,000. 

MILITARY PERSONNEL SPECIAL INTEREST ITEMS

Items for which additional funds have been provided or have 

been specifically reduced as shown in the project level tables or in 

paragraphs using the phrase ‘‘only for’’ or ‘‘only to’’ in this report 

are congressional special interest items for the purpose of the Base 

for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414). Each of these items must be 

carried on the DD Form 1414 at the stated amount as specifically 

addressed in the Committee report. Below Threshold 
17 

Reprogrammings may not be used to either restore or reduce funding from congressional special interest items as identified on the 

DD Form 1414. 

MILITARY PERSONNEL OVERVIEW

Reserve Component Budget Reporting.—The Committee continues 

its requirement for the Department to provide a semi-annual 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. 

Advanced Trauma Training Program for National Guard and 

Reserve.—The Committee recognizes the valuable support universities, hospitals, and other military partners provide by offering civilian-based emergency response trauma training and critical care 

training including public health, bio-environmental, and biomedical 

instruction to sustain medics’ and medical providers’ capabilities of 

the National Guard Enhanced Response Forces Packages [CERFP], 

National Guard Homeland Response Forces [NGHRF], the Army 

Reserve Consequence Management Response Forces [CCMRF] and 

other National Guard and Reserves medical conversion/readiness 

requirements. The Committee encourages the National Guard and 

Reserves to continue pursuing state-of-the-art trauma training 

with these civilian partners, thus maintaining unit medical readiness postures at optimum levels as military healthcare providers in 

CERFPs, NGHRFs, and CCMRFs maintain their individual skills 

to respond effectively to emergency incidents on the homeland. Furthermore, in order to minimize the civilian-military operational 

gaps in the event of a catastrophic incident, the Committee also encourages the development of enhanced medical and critical care 

preparedness medical training programs focusing on public health 

curriculums and the epidemiology of public health diseases, mass 

casualty triage, advanced disaster life support, advanced hazardous 

material life support, emergency dental, and psychological health 

by increasing civilian-based advanced trauma expertise gained 

through day-to-day experiences and medical research programs. 

Army Stationing Procedures.—The Committee is concerned with 

the lack of transparency in Army stationing decisions. Therefore, 

the Committee directs the Secretary of the Army to submit a report 

to the congressional defense committees not later than 90 days 

after enactment of this act, on the procedures for Army stationing 

related to changes in force structure. The report shall discuss how 

the Department of the Army is incorporating factors related to the 

quality of life for soldiers and families pursuant to guidance distributed by the Service Secretaries on February 23, 2018. 

Report on Guard and Reserve Benefits and Compensation.—The 

Committee recognizes that additional active duty service requirements are being asked of currently serving members of the National Guard and Reserve in order to enhance the readiness of the 

force. The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to submit a 

report to the congressional defense committees not later than 90 

days after the enactment of this act that includes proposals for 

compensation, allowances, and benefits for members of the reserve 
18 

components who perform additional periods of active duty service 

for non-contingency operations that exceed the standard duty obligations required of service in a reserve component. These proposals 

should provide for compensation, allowances, and benefits commensurate with the additional duties assigned.

REPROGRAMMING GUIDANCE FOR OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE

ACCOUNTS

The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to submit the 

Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414) for each of the fiscal year 

2019 appropriation accounts not later than 60 days after the enactment of this act. The Secretary of Defense is prohibited from executing any reprogramming or transfer of funds for any purpose 

other than originally appropriated until the aforementioned report 

is submitted to the House and Senate Appropriations Committees. 

The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to use the normal prior approval reprogramming procedures to transfer funds in 

the services’ operation and maintenance accounts between O–1 

budget activities, or between subactivity groups in the case of Operation and Maintenance, Defense-Wide, in excess of $20,000,000. 

The Committee maintains the reprogramming rules established 

in the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2018 (Public 

Law 115–141) for transferring funding out of readiness subactivity 

groups, which are defined as follows: 

Army: 

Maneuver units 

Modular support brigades 

Land forces operations support 

Aviation assets 

Force readiness operations support 

Land forces depot maintenance 

Base operations support 

Facilities sustainment, restoration and modernization 

Specialized skill training 

Navy: 

Mission and other flight operations 

Fleet air training 

Aircraft depot maintenance 

Mission and other ship operations 

Ship depot maintenance 

Facilities sustainment, restoration and modernization 

Marine Corps:

Combat enhancement forces 

Depot purchase equipment maintenance 

Facilities sustainment, restoration and modernization 

Contractor logistics support and system support 

Flying hour program 

Air Force Reserve: 

Primary combat forces 

Air National Guard:

During fiscal year 2019, the Committee directs the Service Secretaries to submit written notification to the congressional defense 
32 

committees not later than 30 days prior to implementing transfers 

in excess of $20,000,000 out of any readiness sub-activity if the 

funds will be transferred into another readiness sub-activity. However, if funding is transferred out of any readiness sub-activity into 

a non-readiness sub-activity, the Secretary of Defense is directed to 

use normal prior approval reprogramming procedures. 

The Committee further directs the Service Secretaries to include 

an enclosure with each written notification that includes increases 

and decreases by sub-activity group, a detailed justification explaining why the sources of funding are available and why the increases are necessary, and an explanation of the impact on resources included in the fiscal year 2020 budget request for each increase and decrease. All transfers may be implemented 30 days 

after congressional notification unless an objection is received from 

one of the congressional defense committees. 

Additionally, the Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to 

use normal prior approval reprogramming procedures when implementing transfers in excess of $20,000,000 into the following budget sub-activities: 

Operation and Maintenance, Army: 

Recruiting and advertising 

Operation and Maintenance, Army National Guard: 

Other personnel support/recruiting and advertising 

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE BUDGET EXECUTION DATA

The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to continue to 

provide the congressional defense committees with quarterly budget execution data. Such data should be provided not later than 45 

days after the close of each quarter of the fiscal year, and should 

be provided for each O–1 budget activity, activity group, and subactivity group for each of the active, defense-wide, reserve, and National Guard components. For each O–1 budget activity, activity 

group, and sub-activity group, these reports should include the 

budget request and actual obligation amount, the distribution of 

unallocated congressional adjustments to the budget request, all 

adjustments made by the Department in establishing the Base for 

Reprogramming (DD Form 1414) report, all adjustments resulting 

from below threshold reprogrammings, and all adjustments resulting from prior approval reprogramming requests. 

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE SPECIAL INTEREST ITEMS

Items for which additional funds have been provided or have 

been specifically reduced as shown in the project level tables or in 

paragraphs using the phrase ‘‘only for’’ or ‘‘only to’’ in the Committee report are congressional special interest items for the purpose of the Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414). Each of 

these items must be carried on the DD Form 1414 at the stated 

amount as specifically addressed in the Committee report. Below 

Threshold Reprogrammings may not be used to either restore or reduce funding from congressional special interest items as identified 

on the DD Form 1414. 
33 

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OVERVIEW

Civilian Workforce.—The Committee expects the Department of 

Defense to maintain a stable, effective, right-sized civilian cadre. 

The Committee further expects the hiring process to be responsive 

and efficient in order to build the workforce needed to achieve its 

mission and strategic goals. The Committee recognizes the critical 

role that the civilian workforce plays every day in ensuring the 

mission success of the Armed Forces. 

Contract Services Spending.—The Committee is concerned that 

the Department of Defense does not have adequate policies, procedures, and controls in place to enforce limitations on the annual 

amounts expended on contracted services. There is further concern 

that not all contracted services are being subjected to spending limitations because of the exclusion of contracted services involving 

Economy Act transfers between and within Department of Defense 

components. Additionally, because of the disparity between the levels of contracted services captured in the Inventory of Contracts for 

Services, required under section 2330a of title 10, United States 

Code, and what the Department budgets for contracted services, it 

appears as though the Department does not deliberately plan for 

most contracted services. The Committee urges the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) to review the efforts of the financial 

management and acquisition communities to implement effective 

control mechanisms for contracted services spending. 

Tobacco Use in the Military.—Tobacco use is the leading cause of 

preventable death in the United States, with more than 480,000 

deaths attributable to cigarette smoking each year. The Department of Defense has affirmed the goal of a tobacco-free military, 

and has implemented a range of programs including public education campaigns, the banning of all tobacco use during basic training, and the prohibition of tobacco use by instructors in the presence of students. The Committee supports the Secretary of Defense’s Policy Memorandum 16–001 from April 8, 2016, directing 

the military services ‘‘to ensure a comprehensive tobacco policy that 

assists with preventing initiation of tobacco use, helping those who 

want to quit using tobacco succeed, and decreasing exposure to second-hand smoke for all our people.’’ As a result, the Committee retains a provision from the Department of Defense Appropriations 

Act, 2018 (Public Law 115–141) directing the elimination of the 

price subsidy provided to tobacco products at military exchanges. 

Voluntary Military Education Programs—Enforcing Memorandum of Understanding.—The Committee supports the Department of Defense’s commitment to enforcing the terms of the current Memorandum of Understanding [MOU] with all educational 

institutions providing educational programs through the Department of Defense tuition assistance program. The Committee is also 

supportive of the Department’s efforts to increase participating institutions’ understanding of their contractual obligations as MOU 

signatories and the procedures for enforcement as outlined in Department of Defense Instruction [DODI] 1322.25. The Committee 

urges the Department to maintain vigorous defense of these responsibilities in order to protect the integrity and quality of voluntary military education programs. 
34 

Demonstration Project for Contractors Employing Persons with 

Disabilities.—The Committee encourages the Secretary of Defense 

to pursue a demonstration project for contractors employing persons with disabilities. The demonstration project is modeled after 

the Small Business Administration’s Set Aside program, but 

uniquely includes an incentive for Federal contracting entities to 

hire people with disabilities who currently receive Social Security 

benefits. Such a demonstration project provides opportunities for 

severely disabled individuals to become gainfully employed taxpayers. 

Transfer of Veterans Memorial Objects to Foreign Governments.— The Committee directs that the use of any funds appropriated in 

this act to carry out authorities under section 2864 of the National 

Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 be subject to normal reprogramming procedures. 

Reporting Requirement on Suppliers from Bangladesh.—The annual report directed by the Department of Defense Appropriations 

Act, 2015 regarding factories in Bangladesh that produce items 

sold in the commissary and exchange systems is no longer required 

after fiscal year 2018. 

Drinking Water Contamination.—The Committee remains concerned about the health implications of contaminated drinking 

water due to perfluorinated chemicals [PFCs]. The Committee 

worked with the military services to assess unfunded executable requirements in fiscal year 2019 due to issues associated PFCs and 

provided additional funding accordingly. The Committee intends to 

aggressively follow up with the services on procedures for timely 

remediation and community notification. 

Additionally, the Committee encourages the Secretary of Defense 

to evaluate the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of available remediation technologies for the removal of PFCs and other chemical contaminants from ground water and drinking water, to include granulated activated carbon systems which have already been installed 

at current and former Department of Defense installations. 

Boards for Correction of Military Records.—The Air Force Review 

Board Agency, Army Review Boards Agency, and the Board of 

Naval Corrections play a decisive role ensuring that military personnel enjoy fair, just, and equitable decisions as it pertains to 

their service records and benefits. However, the Committee is concerned that the Boards have failed to modernize personnel, processes, and infrastructure at the pace required for demonstrated increases in the volume and complexity of its caseloads. As a result, 

the Boards are significantly under-resourced. The Committee also 

notes that none of the Boards have current, validated needs assessments for personnel, information technology, and operations, which 

are critical to the budget process. The Committee has not yet received the report directed by the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2018, and awaits receipt of the service Secretaries’ plans 

to address these resourcing issues. 

Excess Department of Defense Property.—The Department of Defense’s 1033 program, which transfers surplus equipment to Federal, State, local, tribal and territorial law enforcement agencies, 

can provide substantial support for law enforcement activities. The 

Committee notes that current law requires consultation between 
35 

the Secretary of Defense and the Attorney General, the Director of 

National Drug Control Policy, and the Secretary of Homeland Security, as appropriate. The Committee urges the Secretary of Defense 

to maintain an ongoing working group of agency representatives 

from the Departments of Justice and Homeland Security, the Office 

of National Drug Control Policy, the General Services Administration, as well as public stakeholders, to provide effective consultation regarding the 1033 program, to discuss issues, concerns and 

opportunities regarding the 1033 program, and to ensure coordination with programs that provide similar equipment to law enforcement. The Committee directs the Director of the Defense Logistics 

Agency to improve public transparency and ensure that all program data is proactively published through the Law Enforcement 

Support Office [LESO] website. This should include historic data on 

both items requested and all transferred items. The Committee further directs the Director of the Defense Logistics Agency to notify 

Congress and the public, through the LESO website, before 

changes are made regarding the list of items allowed for transfer, 

including changes to those items considered controlled items. 

Long-term Temporary Duty Allowance.—The Committee recognizes the importance of per diem allowances for travelers on longterm temporary duty assignments. The Committee affirms its support for Section 632 of S. 2987, the National Defense Authorization 

Act for Fiscal Year 2019, which prohibits the Department of Defense from reducing per diem rates based on the duration of a temporary duty assignment or civilian travel. 

Operation and Maintenance Budget Justification.—The Committee commends the Department for the improvements in the Operation and Maintenance [O&M] budget materials made over the 

past several years. To further inform the congressional review, the 

Committee directs the following actions: 

—The Air Force justification lacks sufficient performance criteria 

in a number of budget line items due to the recent consolidation of flying hour costs into a separate, single budget line 

item. The Air Force is directed to develop more meaningful 

performance metrics and criteria for the following budget line 

items to be included in the budget justification for fiscal year 

2020: 11A Primary Combat Forces, 11C Combat Enhancement 

Forces, 11D Air Operations Training, 12A Global C3I and 

Early Warning, 12C Other Combat Operations Support Programs, 21A Airlift Operations, 32B Flight Training, and 42G 

Other Servicewide Activities. 

—The Air Force, Air Force Reserve, and Air National Guard are 

directed to include average salary data in the Personnel Summary section of the OP–5 exhibits. 

Arctic Broadband Infrastructure.—The Committee is concerned 

that broadband infrastructure in the Arctic, particularly in northern Alaska and the Aleutian Islands, is not capable of supporting 

current military operations. Therefore, the Committee directs the 

Secretary of Defense to conduct an evaluation of broadband infrastructure in the United States Arctic and provide a report to the 

congressional defense committees not later than 180 days after enactment of this act. The report shall list an inventory of all existing 

broadband and communications infrastructure in the Aleutian Is-
36 

land chain and Alaska’s northwest and northern slope communities, as well as present limitations and needs for the future.

Army Sustainment, Restoration and Modernization and Facility 

Reduction Funding.—The Committee supports the robust funding 

level requested in fiscal year 2019 for facility sustainment, restoration and modernization. The Secretary of the Army is encouraged 

to use a portion of these funds on Army testing facilities and for 

the demolition of contaminated military facilities that are no longer 

in use. 

Army Mountain Warfare Capabilities.—The Committee recognizes the contemporary national security relevance of military 

mountaineering training and supports bolstering existing frameworks to train personnel in this field. The Committee directs the 

Secretary of the Army to review the Army’s current mountaineering capabilities, any gaps in personnel and resources for continuing and potential missions, and any limitations that may exist 

to increasing training capacity should it be required. The Secretary 

of the Army shall provide a report detailing the results of the review to the House and Senate Appropriations Committees not later 

than 90 days after the enactment of this act. 
39 

Mobile Small Arms Repair Team.—The Committee encourages 

the Secretary of the Army to conduct a pilot program to assess the 

feasibility and advisability of providing a mobile small arms repair 

team to be located near a United States Army Depot. 

Logistics Automation Systems Sustainment.—The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Army to leverage Condition Based 

Maintenance technologies and concepts to maintain logistic and 

equipment publications. This includes utilizing industry available 

software that can be integrated for specific purposes in the capture 

of holistic data analytics provided by embedded sensors to update 

equipment and repair manuals in real time.

Public Shipyard Availabilities.—The Committee urges the Navy 

to further workforce development at each of its public shipyards 

and continue to invest in its Shipyard Infrastructure Optimization 

Plan, which would address infrastructure requirements necessary 

to support maintenance availabilities and the workforce at the pub-
42 

lic shipyards. Additionally, the Committee directs the Secretary of 

the Navy to notify the congressional defense committees not later 

than 90 days before diverting from a public shipyard any currently 

scheduled surface ship or submarine availability. The notification 

shall include a justification of why the availability cannot be supported in the public shipyard without affecting Navy readiness and 

an explanation of the measures the Navy has taken to mitigate any 

harm to the operations, workload, and workforce development of 

the public shipyard that may result from diverting the availability. 

Chief of Naval Air Training.—The Committee understands the 

critical training requirement and pilot shortfall that the Department of Defense is experiencing and encourages the Secretary of 

the Navy to seek alternate airfields, to include in-land locations, to 

expand training opportunities. 

Naval Shipyard Apprentice Program.—The Committee directs 

that during fiscal year 2019 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 2020 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 nonDOD 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. 

Advanced Skills Management Legacy System Upgrades.—The 

Committee is concerned that the Navy is not giving full consideration to commercial-off-the-shelf software solutions. The Secretary 

of the Navy is encouraged to use the best value procurement methods when upgrading legacy software systems. 

Civilian Hiring Delays at Public Shipyards.—The Committee is 

aware that the Office of Civilian Human Resources has encountered extensive delays in processing new applicants and potential 

hires for the Department of the Navy. The Committee urges the 

Secretary of the Navy to increase awareness of civilian hiring 

needs at public shipyards and assess current timelines for processing new applicants and hires in order to avoid an impact on 

shipyard operations that may result in delays in completing submarine maintenance availabilities. 

Fuel Depot Monitoring Enhancements.—The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Navy to work with local and State governments and willing private landowners to enhance groundwater 

monitoring on non-Federal lands surrounding Navy fuel storage facilities and depots to improve public confidence in the Navy’s stewardship of groundwater and other environmental resources. The 

Committee further urges the Secretary of the Navy to prioritize 

this enhanced groundwater monitoring at its oldest fuel storage facilities and depots that have a documented history of fuel leaks. 

National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Marine Operation Facilities.—The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2018 (Public Law 115–141) directed the Secretary of the Navy to work with 
43 

the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration [NOAA] in 

order for NOAA to provide a report to the Commerce, Justice, 

Science Appropriations Subcommittee outlining the cost, scope, and 

timeline for constructing and outfitting new berthing facilities in 

Newport, Rhode Island by May 23, 2018. The language further directed NOAA to outline its partnership with the United States 

Navy and the United States Coast Guard on the associated shared 

responsibilities for constructing and using this facility. The Committee notes that this reporting requirement is overdue and expects 

its prompt delivery. In the meantime, the Committee encourages 

the Secretary of the Navy to consider funding planning and design 

activities for the pier at Naval Station Newport in fiscal year 2019 

from within the Sustainment, Restoration and Modernization budget line item.

Marine Corps Civilian Personnel.—The Committee is aware that 

the Marine Corps operates under a Manage to Payroll concept that 

focuses on a funding level for civilian labor and adjusts the Full 

Time Equivalent [FTE] level to reflect the estimated number of 

workyears that funding level will afford. This is unlike the other 

military services where the civilian personnel funding estimates 

are built on the workload requirements. To better understand this 

concept, the Committee directs the Government Accountability Office to provide the congressional defense committees a report not 

later than 90 days after enactment of this act on the details of how 

the Marine Corps develops its civilian labor requirements (both 

FTEs and funding). The report should examine the benefits and 

shortfalls of this concept and make recommendations to either continue or change this approach.

Properly Budgeting for Full Requirements.—During the review of 

the fiscal year 2018 President’s budget request, the Air Force revealed to the Committee that it starts each fiscal year with nearly 

$1,000,000,000 in programmatic shortfalls in its operation and 

maintenance account for must-pay mission bills. The increases in 

readiness funding provided by the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018 

have allowed the Air Force to close that gap; however, the Committee continues to discover examples of the Air Force not programming or budgeting for the full amount of known requirements. 

This is not only evident in the larger programs such as Operational 

Support Airlift or Base Operations Support, but also very specific 

smaller programs such as the operational funding for the C–130H 

Weapons Instructor Course and the Advanced Airlift Tactics Training Center hosted by the 139th Airlift Wing with the Missouri Air 

National Guard. The Committee understands that the 139th Airlift 

Wing requirements have historically been sourced exclusively during the year of execution at the expense of other funded programs. 

Failure to properly budget resources for known requirements places 

unnecessary burdens on smaller programs, increases the prob-
48 

ability of reprogramming requests, and often leads to an application of a tax against mission accounts to cover under-programmed 

requirements. The Committee recognizes the efforts made to improve the operation and maintenance budget formulation process to 

match historical execution and directs the Secretary of the Air 

Force to continue to emphasize properly programming resources in 

order to fully fund known requirements for the active, guard and 

reserve components. 

Air Force Associate Units.—The Committee recognizes the importance of Total Force Integration within the Air Force and certain 

Air National Guard units who have a critical role in construction 

and engineering. This integration ensures cross-component interoperability to fill current and future mission requirements. The 

Committee encourages the Air Force to continue placing an increased focus on actively managing associate units between the Air 

National Guard and the active duty component and to establish robust memorandum of agreements to ensure units are not left without equipment when the active component deploys.

Special Victims’ Counsel Program.—The Committee remains concerned with the level of sexual assault in the military and supports 
51 

the Department’s continuing efforts to strengthen its sexual assault 

prevention and response program. The needs of victims of sexual 

assault for legal advice and guidance are particularly acute. To ensure that the Department continues to make progress protecting a 

victim’s confidentiality and ending alienation during the investigation and prosecution of their case, the Committee recommends 

$25,000,000 for implementation of the Special Victims’ Counsel 

Program across the services. 

Maritime Security Initiative.—The Committee supports the efforts of the Department of Defense to address Asia-Pacific security 

concerns and improve the maritime security of our partners and allies through the Southeast Asia Maritime Security Initiative [MSI]. 

MSI is a dedicated funding line that supports equipment, supplies 

and services, training, and small-scale construction to support the 

maritime security missions of partner military and security forces. 

The Committee recommends $84,500,000 for fiscal year 2019 for 

MSI, a 30 percent increase over the 2018 enacted amount, but 

$13,500,000 less than the fiscal year 2019 budget request. The 

Committee notes that the Department requested 2-year funding for 

all MSI and other security cooperation programs, but only 25 percent of such funding is appropriated as 2-year funding. As such, 

the reduction reflects the Committee’s expectation, based on prior 

year execution, that the Department will not be able to execute 

funding, planned to be spent in 2 years, in only 1 year. 

Defense Finance and Accounting Service.—The Committee supports efforts to find efficiencies and reduce unnecessary costs within the Department of Defense, including both the military services 

and the defense agencies. However, there are concerns about efforts 

to close or realign Defense Finance and Accounting Services 

[DFAS] installations. Therefore, prior to transferring any functions 

or implementing civilian reductions at a DFAS installation, the 

Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to provide the congressional defense committees a written report on any plan to do so 

and the Secretary must certify to such committees that the plan 

would reduce costs, increase efficiencies, and maintain the timeline 

for auditability of financial statements. 

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 college accredited training for service 

members and government officials in a number of languages and 

strategic cultures. The Committee encourages the Department of 

Defense to continue placing a high priority on these programs and 

designates the funding included in the fiscal year 2019 President’s 

budget request for the Language Training Centers as a congressional special interest item to ensure warfighters, both conventional and special operations forces, receive the language and culture training needed to complete their missions effectively.

Advanced Turbine Engine Army Maintenance [ATEAM].—The 

ATEAM is a military special repair activity located on Fort Riley, 

Kansas. The ATEAM provides rebuilt-AGT 1500 engines and 

X1100 transmissions in support of the Army National Guard, Army 

Material Command, the United States Marine Corps, the Tank and 

Automotive Command [TACOM], as well as foreign military partners. The Committee is encouraged that the U.S. Army, National 

Guard Bureau, TACOM and Kansas National Guard are establishing a Memorandum of Agreement to facilitate the contracting 

of parts and equipment when workload obligations exceed the capacity of the Kansas National Guard. However, authorities for Title 

32 Federal technicians are not well defined as it relates to work on 

foreign military sales contracts specifically, such as Full Up Power 

Pack repairs. The unclear policies have hampered the ability of the 

ATEAM to meet obligations and maintain workload. 

Therefore, the Chief, National Guard Bureau, in coordination 

with the Secretary of the Army, is directed to conduct a review and 

establish policies that clearly define ATEAM authorities to fulfill 

obligations. The review shall inform a report addressing the following: (1) the duties and responsibilities of the U.S. Army, National Guard Bureau, TACOM and the Kansas National Guard for 

the ATEAM to meet obligations; (2) an ATEAM workforce transition plan and policies for work on foreign military sales contracts; 

and (3) a justification from the Chief, National Guard Bureau, in 

coordination with the Kansas National Guard, that certifies any 

change in the workforce of the ATEAM will not adversely affect the 

ATEAM’s ability to meet existing and future obligations of the U.S. 

Army and foreign military sales contracts. The report and a briefing on its findings to the House and Senate Appropriations Committees shall be completed not later 60 days after the enactment 

of this act.

REPROGRAMMING GUIDANCE FOR ACQUISITION ACCOUNTS

The Secretary of Defense is directed to continue to follow the reprogramming guidance as specified in the report accompanying the 

House version of the Department of Defense appropriations bill for 

fiscal year 2008 (House Report 110–279). Specifically, the dollar 
63 

threshold for reprogramming funds will remain at $20,000,000 for 

procurement and $10,000,000 for research, development, test and 

evaluation. 

Also, the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) is directed to 

continue to provide the congressional defense committees quarterly, 

spreadsheet-based DD Form 1416 reports for service and defensewide accounts in titles III and IV of this act. Reports for titles III 

and IV shall comply with guidance specified in the explanatory 

statement accompanying the Department of Defense Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2006. The Department shall continue to 

follow the limitation that prior approval reprogrammings are set at 

either the specified dollar threshold or 20 percent of the procurement or research, development, test and evaluation line, whichever 

is less. These thresholds are cumulative from the base for reprogramming value as modified by any adjustments. Therefore, if 

the combined value of transfers into or out of a procurement (P– 

1), or a research, development, test and evaluation (R–1) line exceeds the identified threshold, the Secretary of Defense must submit a prior approval reprogramming to the congressional defense 

committees. In addition, guidelines on the application of prior approval reprogramming procedures for congressional special interest 

items are established elsewhere in this report. 

FUNDING INCREASES

The funding increases outlined in the tables for each appropriation account shall be provided only for the specific purposes indicated in the tables. 

PROCUREMENT SPECIAL INTEREST ITEMS

Items for which additional funds have been recommended or 

items for which funding is specifically reduced as shown in the tables detailing Committee recommended adjustments or in paragraphs using the phrase ‘‘only for’’ or ‘‘only to’’ are congressional 

special interest items for the purpose of the Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414). Each of these items must be carried on the 

DD Form 1414 at the stated amount, as specifically addressed in 

elsewhere in this report. 

PROCUREMENT OVERVIEW

Army Organic Industrial Base.—The Committee directs the Secretary of the Army to provide 45-day written notification to the 

congressional defense committees prior to the Secretary approving 

civilian reductions in force that will result in an employment loss 

of 50 or more full-time employees at any Army organic industrial 

base facility. The notification shall include the impact that the proposed reduction in force will have on the ability to maintain the organic industrial base critical manufacturing capabilities as delineated in the Army Organic Industrial Base Strategy Report, a detailed accounting of the costs of implementing the reduction in 

force, and an assessment of the cost of, and time necessary, to restore any lost capability to meet future organic wartime manufacturing needs. 
64 

Arsenal Sustainment Initiative.—The Committee continues to 

support the Department of the Army’s efforts to ensure that the 

critical manufacturing capabilities of the nation’s organic industrial 

base are maintained, and commends the Army for issuing a definitive make-or-buy directive for the manufacturing arsenals. The new 

guidance ensures that the arsenals will be given fair consideration 

for every Army acquisition; provides for a 30-day review of all such 

decisions by the Army Acquisition Executive; requires all private 

sector companies to consider the arsenals as a potential supplier of 

component parts; and provides for an annual review of this overall 

process. The Committee encourages the Army to implement the 

new directive consistently to ensure the arsenals have the workload 

necessary to maintain the proficiency and capacity to meet the 

manufacturing needs of the nation during war and peacetime. The 

Committee notes that it has not yet received detailed recommendations from the Secretary of Defense on how the Air Force, Navy, 

and Marine Corps can better use the arsenals for their manufacturing needs, or what opportunities may exist for the arsenals to 

assist the services and the Defense Logistics Agency to procure for 

our spare parts inventory, as required by Senate Report 114–63.

Army Stryker Double-V Hull A1.—Following the submission of 

the fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request, the Chief of Staff 

of the Army approved an Army Requirements Oversight Counsel 

[AROC] decision to upgrade and pure fleet all Flat-Bottom Hull 

[FBH] Stryker combat vehicles to the Double V–Hull A1 variant 

[DVHA1] in an effort to improve troop survivability and mobility. 

The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request includes 

$21,900,000 to upgrade three FBH Stryker vehicles to DVHA1 

variants. Subsequent to the AROC decision, the Army requested a 

budget based transfer of $149,390,000 to fund additional conver-
74 

sions. With the transfer, the Army can resource 53 DVHA1 conversions totaling $171,290,000. The Committee has also included a 

congressional adjustment of $94,000,000 for 29 conversions. In addition, the Committee understands that the Army plans to submit 

a reprogramming request to the congressional defense committees 

with a request to repurpose fiscal year 2018 congressionally directed funding totaling $285,000,000 for 91 DVHA1 conversions. If 

the reprogramming action is approved by the congressional defense 

committees, the Army will have sufficient resources to fund conversions for half the vehicles in a Stryker Brigade Combat Team 

[SBCT]. 

The Committee supports the net-zero fiscal year 2019 transfer 

request and additional funding for DVHA1 conversions, while anticipating the fiscal year 2018 reprogramming request. However, 

the Committee is concerned with the Army’s ability to maintain 

this level of effort through resourcing decisions in the Future Years 

Defense Program profile within future Program Objective Memorandum and budgeting cycles. Therefore, the Secretary of the Army 

shall report to the congressional defense committees not later than 

30 days after the enactment of this act, on the Army’s acquisition 

strategy to upgrade and pure fleet the remaining FBH SBCTs to 

DVHA1 variants. 

M4A1 Carbine Extended Forward Rail System.—The Army’s Soldier Enhancement Program study published in December 2017 

found that the United States Special Operations Command’s extended free-float rail system is substantially more accurate than 

the Army’s legacy M4A1 rail and readily available in the supply 

system. While the Committee supports the Army’s modernization 

strategy which calls for developing and fielding the Next Generation Squad Automatic Weapon before developing and fielding the 

Next Generation Soldier Weapon, the Committee remains concerned that the Army is not accelerating modest and readily available upgrades to the M4A1 Carbine and thereby improving solider 

lethality in the interim. Therefore, the Committee encourages the 

Secretary of the Army to accelerate adapting a government provided extended free-float rail system for the M4A1 carbine.

HMMWV Ambulances.—The Committee is concerned about the 

Army’s current level of investment to modernize the active component ground ambulance fleet. To accelerate the modernization of 

ground ambulances, the Committee recommends an increase of 

$120,000,000 over the fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request. 

Tactical Communication and Protective Systems.—The Committee is aware that hearing damage is a risk faced by warfighters 

both in combat and in training. The ability to hear clearly and 

quickly evaluate one’s surroundings is essential for situational 

awareness and mission success. The Committee notes that technologies have been developed to allow radio operators to wear hearing protection without inhibiting situational awareness. The Committee is concerned that these technologies are not being acquired 

in conjunction with procurements of tactical radio. This means that 

many radios are issued with substandard hearing protection or are 

unable to be issued at all while awaiting deliveries of compliant 

headsets. The Committee encourages the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness to work in conjunction with the 

service acquisition executives to ensure that procurements of radios 

are in step with procurements of tactical hearing protection and 

communication devices so that a complete system with the most 

utility and protection available can be delivered to the warfighter. 

Army Network Modernization Strategy.—The Committee continues to support the Department of the Army’s efforts to modernize its air-land ad-hoc, mobile tactical communications and data 

networks and notes that, pursuant to section 112 of the 2018 National Defense Authorization Act (Public Law 115–91), the Army 

provided its network modernization strategy to Congress. The Committee further notes that the Army is currently staffing architecture and standards documents in addition to multiple overarching 

Information System Initial Capabilities Documents in support of 

network modernization efforts. However, the Committee is concerned that the modernization strategy is continuing to evolve and 

that the justification supporting the fiscal year 2019 President’s 

budget request does not provide the requisite details to appropriately assess the resourcing requirements and acquisition objectives at the program, project, and activity level. 

Therefore, not later than 90 days after the enactment of this act, 

the Program Executive Officer Command Control Communications- 
89 

Tactical [PEO C3T], in conjunction with the Director, Network 

Cross-Functional Team, shall submit a network acquisition roadmap to the congressional defense committees, to include detailed 

actions and milestones, which satisfies the following objectives: (1) 

describes the architecture and standards for the unified transport 

layer and common operating environment that will serve as integrating guidance for the development and acquisition of modernization technologies; (2) categorizes under capability sets, all current 

and future network acquisitions and modernization activities, to include currently funded programs and requirements that align with 

the Army’s network strategy; (3) development and approval of requirements documents that support the Army’s network strategy 

and serve as overarching guidance for enabling systems and technologies; (4) details the plan to develop, test with appropriate instrumentation, and field the integrated capabilities, as part of one 

or more programs of record or other acquisition efforts; (5) an accounting of the Army’s fiscal year 2019 budget request Future 

Year’s Defense Program profile for investment appropriations that 

support the Army’s network strategy based on the defined categories. This should include a detailed account of all programs, 

projects, and activities within existing budget line items, existing 

programs of records, and any future investments within the FYDP; 

and (6) a proposal to realign resources into budget line items by capability set or a plan for discernible cost elements and activities 

within the existing budget line items. 

Additionally, the PEO C3T shall submit to the congressional defense committees a test and evaluation plan for the Secure But Unclassified [SBU] components of the Integrated Tactical Network architecture prior to fielding any additional SBU systems to operational units, beyond fiscal year 2019. Furthermore, the PEO C3T 

shall provide notification to the congressional defense committees 

upon completion of cyber and vulnerability test and evaluation of 

the enabling SBU capabilities.

Next Generation Land Attack Weapon [NGLAW] and Interim Capabilities.—The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request includes $16,900,000 to continue the Analysis of Alternatives [AoA] 

for the NGLAW. The Committee understands that NGLAW is intended to address the Navy’s cruise missile strategy against future 

threats and targets in time to replace or modify existing weapons 

programs. The Committee notes that a capabilities based assessment conducted by the Navy deferred the NGLAW initial operating 

capability [IOC] requirement by several years and the Committee 

further notes that the AoA, which commenced in fiscal year 2017, 

has expanded in scope and its completion is delayed. Therefore, the 

Committee has supported efforts to sustain the industrial base and 

provide incremental improvements to existing capabilities as interim solutions. This includes investments in multiple capability 

upgrades and the acquisition of additional Tomahawk all-up 

rounds [AUR], most recently by providing $102,000,000 above the 

President’s budget request in the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2018 (Public Law 115–141), pursuant to the Navy’s 

fiscal year 2018 enhancement request following enactment of the 

Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018 (Public Law 115–123). 

The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request for Tomahawk 

does not include funding for new production AURs, reflecting the 

Navy’s strategy to transition from new production to recertification 

and modernization activities. In addition, the Navy has proposed to 

repurpose the fiscal year 2018 appropriated increase for new production missiles, in contradiction to the Navy’s request. The Committee directs the Secretary of the Navy to conduct a full review 

of the Tomahawk program including: an analysis of the viability of 

new production in fiscal year 2020; an analysis of the capacity for 

concurrent new production and recertification activities within existing facilities; revised cost and schedule projections for modifica-
99 

tion and recertification activities, to include alternatives with and 

without concurrent new production; a detailed review of the execution of the fiscal year 2017 and 2018 new production congressional 

adds; certified courses of action and cost estimates for the 

$102,000,000 new production funding added in fiscal year 2018, to 

include detailed actions and milestones; and an analysis of surface 

and sub-surface launched land attack weapons inventory and requirements projections through the NGLAW IOC date, to include 

Tomahawk and other weapons systems that may provide an interim capability. The Secretary of the Navy shall provide a report 

detailing the results of the review to the congressional defense committees not later than 90 days after enactment of this act. 

In addition, the Committee is aware that a surface launched variant of the Long Range Anti-Ship Missile [LRASM] offers the potential to increase the fleet’s surface warfare capability at a relatively low cost-per-kill while leveraging existing capability. Therefore, the Committee directs the Deputy Chief of Naval Operations 

for Warfare Systems to provide a report to the congressional defense committees not later than 90 days after the enactment of this 

act identifying the capabilities the surface launched LRASM could 

bring to the fleet. Further, the Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Financial Management and Comptroller) is directed to identify costs 

to validate a surface launch LRASM and the benefits of fielding 

such a system. 

Low-Yield Nuclear Warhead.—The Committee directs the Department of Defense, in consultation with the Secretary of Energy, 

to submit a report to the committee that details: (1) what Navy equities required to support a low-yield W–76 capability on operationally available submarine-launched ballistic missiles; (2) any 

changes to or additional crew and personnel training requirements 

necessary to support any such modifications, a timeline for completing such modifications and changes in order to permit deployment of such warheads as well as a timeline for actually loading 

and fielding such warheads; (3) rationale for deploying low-yield 

warhead(s) on a SLBM, each of which is accountable under the 

New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty [New START], instead of 

taking advantage of Treaty attribution rules that count each U.S. 

strategic bomber as a single warhead; (4) and a description of actions that will be taken to mitigate risks of miscalculation associated with adversaries being unable to distinguish between a submarine-launched ballistic missile carrying a low-yield warhead and 

that of a missile carrying several high-yield warheads. The Committee directs that no fiscal year 2019 funding provided by this act 

shall be used to deploy such W76–2 low-yield nuclear Trident II D5 

warheads until examination of the report by the Committee.

Submarine Industrial Base.—The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request includes $3,005,330,000 for advance procurement to 

support the construction of the Ohio Replacement Submarine. The 

Committee supports this request and recommends an additional 

$250,000,000 to enhance the submarine industrial base. Further, 

the Committee notes that $225,000,000 above the President’s budget request was provided by Congress in fiscal year 2018 for the 

same purpose. The Committee supports the submarine shipbuilding 

supply base in light of the Navy’s projected future workload, as defined in the Navy’s ‘‘Annual Long-Range Plan for Construction of 

Naval Vessels for Fiscal Year 2019’’ (30-year shipbuilding plan), 

but is concerned that the Navy is not budgeting the necessary resources to increase capacity and create multiple suppliers for critical submarine components, despite the Navy’s stated concerns over 

the submarine industrial base. Therefore, the Assistant Secretary 

of the Navy (Research, Development and Acquisition) and the Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Financial Management and Comptroller) are directed to brief the congressional defense committees 

on the Navy’s acquisition strategy and associated necessary resources to support the submarine industrial base in the President’s 

fiscal year 2020 budget. 

CVN 80.—The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request includes $1,598,181,000 for the Aircraft Carrier Replacement Pro-
106 

gram. The Committee supports the funding requested to maintain 

the aircraft carrier fleet consistent with the Navy’s 30 year shipbuilding plan. However, the Committee understands that the Navy 

may pursue block buy authority for a two-ship-buy, to include CVN 

81, and notes that the construction award for CVN 80 has slipped 

from March 2018 to December 2018 while negotiations between the 

Navy and the shipbuilder are ongoing. To date, the Committee has 

not received any documentation related to a block buy proposal. 

The Committee notes that an accurate independent cost estimate 

and Navy budget profile are required for the congressional defense 

committees to make an informed decision on the proposal. Therefore, the Committee designates the funding appropriated for the 

Carrier Replacement Program funding line be applied only to CVN 

80 and directs that no funds provided in fiscal year 2019 be applied 

to the procurement of CVN 81 components.

Assault Amphibious Vehicle—Survivability Upgrade [AAV–SU].— 

The Committee notes efforts by the Marine Corps to enhance the 

maneuverability, survivability and combat effectiveness of the legacy AAV vehicle fleet and its Assault Amphibian Battalions while 

maintaining critical amphibious lift and armored personnel carrier 

capabilities. The Committee remains concerned with the current 

production schedule and unit cost estimates due to recent further 

delays in the delivery of required test assets and changes in the vehicle design. Therefore, the Committee provides adequate funding 

to maintain progress towards award of a full rate production contract, and encourages the Commandant of the Marine Corps to provide an updated program schedule and production plan to the congressional defense committees that reflects a more accurate cost assessment and an achievable production schedule.

Light Attack Aircraft.—The Committee understands that the Air 

Force is pursuing a new light attack aircraft using a rapid prototyping acquisition strategy in order to procure a low-cost aircraft 
125 

that provides close air support capability in permissive threat environments, build capability among allies and international partnerships, and reduce operational tempo on more expensive fourth and 

fifth generation fighter aircraft. While the Committee is supportive 

of these efforts, it is disappointed that the Air Force has relied on 

additional funding provided by Congress in order to facilitate the 

ongoing experiment. The Department of Defense Appropriations 

Act, 2018, provided $100,000,000 to continue the experimentation 

program. However, the Air Force did not request any funding in 

the fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request, while programming 

$2,469,000,000 for procurement of light attack aircraft in fiscal 

years 2020 through 2024. 

As Air Force leadership has continually stressed the importance 

of rapid procurement and fielding of this new capability, the Committee recommends $300,000,000 for procurement of light attack 

aircraft and long lead materials. The Committee expects timely and 

complete communication from the Air Force on prototyping and experimentation activities. Accordingly, the Committee directs the 

Secretary of the Air Force, or her designee, to brief the House and 

Senate Appropriations Committees not fewer than 30 days prior to 

obligation of light attack procurement funding. This brief should 

clearly define objectives and requirements, transition plans, technology and manufacturing readiness levels, test activities, costs, 

schedules, and performance metrics. It should also include an acquisition strategy for the light attack program along with an execution plan for the fiscal year 2019 procurement funding. 

C–135B Aircraft.—The fiscal year 2019 budget request includes 

$222,176,000 for two replacement aircraft for the OC–135Bs currently performing unarmed observation flights over signatory nations to the Open Skies Treaty. While the Committee recommends 

fully funding this request, it is dismayed at the lack of justification 

materials, including an acquisition strategy, that were provided to 

the Committee. The Air Force is currently finalizing the detailed 

systems requirement document and is expected to finalize its acquisition strategy in August 2018. The Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force to provide a report to the congressional defense committees not fewer than 30 days prior to the obligation of 

C–135B procurement funding that details the acquisition strategy, 

approved requirements, schedule, and cost estimates associated 

with these new aircraft. 

Transfer of HC–130H Aircraft.—The Committee recognizes that 

the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 requirement for the Air Force to modify seven HC–130s to facilitate 

transfer from the U.S. Coast Guard to the U.S. Forest Service for 

wildfire suppression operations is predicated on a requirement that 

may no longer be valid. Funding provided for these modifications 

is currently being held by the Air Force pending an updated requirement validation from the U.S. Forest Service. The Committee 

strongly encourages the Secretary of the Air Force to notify the 

congressional defense committees before any prior year funds are 

obligated for this purpose.

Defense Production Act.—The fiscal year 2019 budget request in- cludes $38,578,000 for the Defense Production Act [DPA] Fund. For 

the second consecutive year, the Committee supports the DPA 

Fund budget request but does not provide additional funding. The 

Committee remains supportive of DPA’s unique mission to address 

single points of failure in supply chains, support emerging technology, expand Defense-centric companies into commercial sectors, 

and improve the manufacturing capacity of companies when there 

are few market incentives. However, the Committee is concerned 

with the management of the DPA Fund. Despite recent Congressional adds to the DPA Fund, the Committee notes the gradual decrease of debits to the DPA Fund for projects since fiscal year 2015. 

Therefore, the Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to report 

to the congressional defense committees not later than 30 days 

after enactment of this act on the management of the DPA Fund, 

to include an update on the status and plan to accelerate the execution of funds, the way forward on the Executive Agent issue, and 

explanations on the differences between the projects requested in 

the budget request and subsequent funding profiles provided during the year of execution.

REPROGRAMMING GUIDANCE FOR ACQUISITION ACCOUNTS

The Secretary of Defense is directed to continue to follow the reprogramming guidance as specified in the report accompanying the 

House version of the Department of Defense appropriations bill for 

fiscal year 2008 (House Report 110–279). Specifically, the dollar 

threshold for reprogramming funds will remain at $20,000,000 for 

procurement and $10,000,000 for research, development, test and 

evaluation. 

Also, the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) is directed to 

continue to provide the congressional defense committees quarterly, 

spreadsheet-based DD Form 1416 reports for service and defensewide accounts in titles III and IV of this act. Reports for titles III 

and IV shall comply with guidance specified in the explanatory 

statement accompanying the Department of Defense Appropria-
148 

tions Act for Fiscal Year 2006. The Department shall continue to 

follow the limitation that prior approval reprogrammings are set at 

either the specified dollar threshold or 20 percent of the procurement or research, development, test and evaluation line, whichever 

is less. These thresholds are cumulative from the base for reprogramming value as modified by any adjustments. Therefore, if 

the combined value of transfers into or out of a procurement (P– 

1), or a research, development, test and evaluation (R–1) line exceeds the identified threshold, the Secretary of Defense must submit a prior approval reprogramming to the congressional defense 

committees. In addition, guidelines on the application of prior approval reprogramming procedures for congressional special interest 

items are established elsewhere in this report. 

FUNDING INCREASES

The funding increases outlined in the tables for each appropriation account shall be provided only for the specific purposes indicated in the tables. 

RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, TEST AND EVALUATION SPECIAL INTEREST

ITEMS

Items for which additional funds have been recommended or 

items for which funding is specifically reduced as shown in the tables detailing Committee recommended adjustments or in paragraphs using the phrase ‘‘only for’’ or ‘‘only to’’ are congressional 

special interest items for the purpose of the Base for Reprogramming [DD Form 1414]. Each of these items must be carried on the 

DD Form 1414 at the stated amount, as specifically addressed in 

elsewhere in this report. 

RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, TEST AND EVALUATION OVERVIEW

Basic Research.—The Committee understands that basic research is the foundation for Department of Defense innovation and 

future technologies. As the Under Secretary of Defense (Research 

and Engineering) recently testified before the Committee: ‘‘The Department of Defense has the third largest investment among Federal agencies in basic research at U.S. universities, who have, 

through years of continued investments, been the source of many 

of today’s transformational technologies. Traditionally, the Department has viewed the role of universities as producing the research 

innovation, the Department of Defense labs as the mechanism to 

nurture these findings and to render them defense-applicable, and 

the defense industrial base to integrate these new technologies into 

acquisition programs.’’ Accordingly, the Committee recommends a 

total basic research investment of $2,798,456,000, an increase of 

$529,280,000 above the fiscal year 2019 budget request. This includes an additional $125,000,000 in Research, Development, Test 

and Evaluation, Army; $125,000,000 in Research, Development, 

Test and Evaluation, Navy; $125,000,000 in Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Air Force; and $100,000,000 in Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Defense-Wide. 

Directed Energy.—The 2018 National Defense Strategy describes 

a changing security environment due to rapid technological ad-
149 

vancements and the changing character of war. The Committee understands that directed energy, a family of emerging non-kinetic 

capabilities, will play a key role in shaping the air, maritime, and 

ground battlefield environments. The Committee has been supportive of the Department’s directed energy activities to date to ensure that these capabilities are an operational advantage for the 

U.S. military. The Committee supports additional investments to 

further develop directed energy technology and transition these activities to both offensive and defensive capabilities in the future. As 

a result, the Committee recommends an additional $316,500,000 

above the President’s budget request for directed energy activities. 

Specifically, the Committee recommends an additional 

$150,000,000 for Air Force prototyping activities to support the application of directed energy technology for air base air defense, precision attack, and aircraft self-protection. These investments are intended to support the Air Force Directed Energy Weapon Flight 

Plan and the continued development of high energy lasers and 

high-power microwave weapons. Additional investments to advance 

the development of directed energy capabilities by the Missile Defense Agency are addressed separately. 

Hypersonics.—The 2018 National Defense Strategy identifies 

hypersonics as a key technology to ensure that the United States 

maintains its technology superiority and ability to fight and win 

the wars in the future. The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request invests in both offensive and defensive hypersonics capabilities. The Committee understands that the Department of Defense 

is accelerating existing efforts in hypersonics to counter the 

progress made by near peer threats. To support and accelerate several of the Department’s current activities, the Committee recommends an increase of $928,600,000 over the President’s budget 

request to support hypersonics research and prototyping efforts. 

Specifically, the Committee recommends an additional 

$345,000,000 for the Office of the Secretary of Defense to accelerate 

prompt global strike capability development as well as an additional $50,000,000 for the Defense Advanced Research Projects 

Agency to develop offensive hypersonic weapons. Further, the recommendation includes an additional $300,000,000 to support the 

Air Force’s decision to accelerate prototyping efforts for the air 

launched rapid response weapon and hypersonic conventional 

strike weapon. Finally, the Committee recommends an additional 

$113,000,000 for the Navy and the Strategic Capabilities Office to 

design, fabricate, and test an advanced rail gun mount and continue development of associated hypervelocity projectile. Additional 

investments to advance the development of hypersonic capabilities 

by the Missile Defense Agency are addressed separately. 

Department of Defense Test and Evaluation Infrastructure.—The 

2018 National Defense Strategy addresses the increasingly complex 

global threat environment driven in part by rapid technological advancements. The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request proposes investments in several programs that support a more capable 

and lethal force to prepare for this threat environment, including 

directed energy, hypersonics, advanced computing, big data analytics, artificial intelligence, autonomy, and robotics programs; the 
150 

Committee recommends targeted increases in these high priority 

areas to further accelerate U.S. technological innovation. 

The Committee believes that concurrent with investments in 

leap-ahead technological advancements, an investment in the Department of Defense test and evaluation infrastructure is required 

to increase testing range space and availability and to ensure continued independent and objective assessments of weapon system 

capabilities. Therefore, after consultation with the Under Secretary 

of Defense (Research and Engineering) and Director, Operational 

Test and Evaluation, the Committee recommends an increase of 

$846,000,000 above the President’s budget request for the Army, 

Navy, Air Force and Office, Director, Operational Test and Evaluation to modernize the Department of Defense test and evaluation 

infrastructure in areas such as hypersonics, directed energy, augmented intelligence, machine learning and robotics. 

The Committee directs the Under Secretary of Defense (Research 

and Engineering), in conjunction with the Director, Operational 

Test and Evaluation, and the Secretaries of the Army, Navy and 

Air Force, to conduct an in-depth assessment of the Department of 

Defense test and evaluation infrastructure and to identify improvements required to address future warfighting capabilities. The assessment shall be provided to the congressional defense committees 

not later than with the submission of the fiscal year 2020 President’s budget request and shall include proposed coordinated investments by warfighting area in priority order and with associated 

cost estimates.

Soldier Fitness Program and Suicide Prevention Program.—The 

fiscal year 2019 budget request includes $5,639,000 for the Soldier 

Fitness Program and Suicide Prevention Program. While the Committee is fully supportive of these programs, it is dismayed that, 

for the second year in a row, the budget justification materials for 

them lacked sufficient detail and substance. The Committee directs 

the Army to provide full justification for these programs with the 

fiscal year 2020 budget submission. 

Manufacturing Technologies for Unmanned Aerial Systems 

[UAS].—The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Army to 

invest in technologies that vastly improve the mechanical durability of unmanned aerial propulsion systems and utilize multi-fuel 

capable, hybrid electric propulsion. Such technologies should focus 

on reducing the wear of components and lowering component 

weights through innovative computational design while also employing directed energy deposition processes based on rapid and 

predictive simulation tools. 

Life Cycle Pilot Process.—The Committee commends the Army 

for its continuing work in Transformative Manufacturing Technology and strongly encourages the Secretary of the Army to dedicate resources to further the development and equipping of the national technical industrial base with these new and emerging 

transformative manufacturing and ammunition technologies. 

Strategic Materials Research.—The Committee continues to recognize the importance of the Army Research Laboratory [ARL] in 

expanding research, education, and technology development efforts 

in materials and metals processing science and engineering, aiming 

to transform the affordability, performance and environmental sustainability of strategic materials. The Committee further notes that 

ARL’s Open Campus concept benefits the Army, the academic community, and industry through collaboration involving ARL’s research staff and facilities, leading to continued technological superiority for the U.S. warfighter. The Committee encourages the 

Army to consider accelerating expansion of its Open Campus approach to its Materials and Manufacturing Science laboratories in 

order to benefit strategic materials research. 

Mobile Camouflage Systems.—The Committee notes that mobile 

camouflage systems may provide enhanced signature management 

protection, reduce heat and temperature inside and around combat 

vehicles, and yield fuel savings without interfering with the operation of the vehicles. The Committee is aware of the Army’s ongoing operational testing of mobile camouflage systems at the National Training Center and elsewhere and encourages further acceleration of those efforts. 

Next Generation Body Armor.—The Committee commends the 

Army’s efforts in advanced research in next generation body armor 

and the use of cutting-edge material to improve individual protec-
162 

tion, mobility, and survivability on the battlefield. The Committee 

understands that industry is also investing in this technology and 

encourages the Army to continue partnering with industry to lighten soldier load, increase individual protection, and enhance soldier 

survivability. 

Material Development, Characterization, and Computational 

Modeling.—The Committee recognizes the importance of evaluating 

materials and technologies as well as designing and developing 

methodologies and models to enable enhanced lethality and survivability. Methods such as computational research allow for the development of models that predict the mechanical properties of materials that are used in research and development at the U.S. Army 

Research Laboratory [ARL]. These models and simulations, which 

are based on quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics principles 

and thermodynamic simulations, and are tested via cold spray synthesis and mechanical testing, provide a cost savings to the Department of Defense by simulating materials prior to testing them to 

ensure mechanical properties will work together. Additionally, 

these methodologies allow for the enhanced development of technologies such as lightweight armors, protective structures, kinetic 

energy active protection, ballistic shock and mine blast protection, 

helmet technologies to prevent traumatic brain injury, and numerous other uses. The Committee encourages ARL to continue the utilization of computational modeling and simulations research to 

achieve greater cost savings. 

Adaptive Red Team Support.—The Committee supports the work 

of the Army’s Adaptive Red Team Technical Support and Operational Analysis program and understands it provides vital feedback on information technology system vulnerabilities and limitations. Highlighting these vulnerabilities has translated into more 

secure and resilient systems as well as increased production cost 

savings in the acquisition process. Therefore, the Committee encourages the Secretary of the Army to continue to invest in Adaptive Red Team programs.

Accelerated Acquisitions.—The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request includes $1,402,333,000, an increase of 150 percent over 

amounts enacted in fiscal year 2018, for programs designated as 

accelerated acquisitions in accordance with Chief of Naval Operations and Secretary of the Navy Instructions 5000.53 and 5000.42, 

respectively. The Committee supports efforts to rapidly deliver capability to the Warfighter in a responsible manner and recommends $1,204,903,000 for these programs in fiscal year 2019. 

The Committee notes ongoing efforts by the Navy to reorganize 

its internal processes as it relates to the alignment of requirements, acquisition strategies and budgets for accelerated acquisition programs and expects this will lead to improved coordination 

among all stakeholders. The Committee is concerned by repeated 

instances in which the designation as an accelerated acquisition 

program has apparently led to imprudent program management 

decisions affecting contracting actions and funding execution. 

Therefore, the Committee directs the Assistant Secretary of the 

Navy (Research, Development and Acquisition) and the Assistant 

Secretary of the Navy (Financial Management and Comptroller) to 

report to the congressional defense committees, not later than 30 

days after enactment of this Act, on acquisition strategy management and fiscal controls in place to ensure the appropriate manage-
172 

ment of resources for Navy accelerated acquisition programs. Further, the Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Research, Development 

and Acquisition) is directed to provide, with submission of the fiscal 

year 2020 President’s budget request, to the congressional defense 

committees the acquisition strategy for each designated accelerated 

acquisition program, and the Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Financial Management and Comptroller) is directed to certify that 

the fiscal year 2020 President’s budget fully funds such acquisition 

strategies, to include the associated test requirements identified in 

the test plan for each program, as agreed to by the Chief of Naval 

Operations, the Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Research, Development and Acquisition) and the Director, Operational Test and 

Evaluation per previous congressional direction. Finally, the Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Research, Development and Acquisition) 

is directed to identify to the congressional defense committees any 

additional training requirements levied on the acquisition workforce associated with the execution of accelerated acquisition programs. 

Office of Naval Research Budget Structure.—The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request includes $2,239,844,000 for science and 

technology research. The Committee recognizes the criticality of investing in Navy foundational research to ensure U.S. technical superiority in the coming decades and recommends $2,666,744,000 for 

Navy science and technology research, an increase of $426,900,000 

over the budget request. 

The Committee notes that the budget request proposes the consolidation of several program elements into a single, larger program element that would provide unprecedented programmatic and 

fiscal flexibility for advanced technology development. The Committee notes its support for the consolidation of multiple program 

elements and the increased flexibility associated with that realignment in previous years; however, the Committee is concerned that 

a further realignment of program elements would erode programmatic and fiscal transparency, and reorient foundational longterm science and technology research to near-term priorities. 

Therefore, the Committee rejects the proposal to consolidate multiple program elements and establish a single new program element in fiscal year 2019 and recommends retaining the existing 

program element budget structure for naval research. The Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Financial Management and Comptroller) is directed to follow this budget structure in future budget 

submissions. 

Solid State Laser—Technology Maturation.—The Committee 

notes and supports the Navy’s increased investment in several directed energy programs, to include the Solid State—Technology 

Maturation [SSL–TM] program, which is intended to accelerate the 

evaluation of the military utility of laser weapons across a range 

of Navy mission applications by fielding initial capabilities on surface ships. The Committee notes that since its inception, the SSL– 

TM program scope has expanded and development costs have tripled. Further, cost overruns have occurred at multiple program levels, and significant concurrency between the development and fielding efforts are creating further risk to cost and schedule. Therefore, 

the Committee directs the Government Accountability Office [GAO] 
173 

to provide to the congressional defense committees, not later than 

90 days after enactment of this Act, a report reviewing the SSL– 

TM program. At a minimum, the report should review: (1) program 

requirements, including changes thereto; (2) technology readiness 

levels including maturity relative to requirements; (3) the current 

acquisition strategy and program baseline(s); (4) the SSL–TM test 

strategy and associated resourcing; (5) contract strategy, and (6) 

the program management structure. 

Common Hull Auxiliary Multi-Mission Platform [CHAMP].—The 

fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request includes $18,000,000 to 

initiate industry studies on common hull concepts and acquisition 

approaches to replace aging mission-specific sealift and auxiliary 

ships that provide hospital services, aviation support, submarine 

tending, command and control, or sealift. The Committee understands that CHAMP is intended to reduce life cycle costs, leverage 

reconfigurable force packages and stabilize the industrial base. 

Based on information provided by the Navy, the Committee further 

understands that current Navy plans for the acquisition of CHAMP 

could be accelerated by as much as 5 years, and therefore recommends an additional $18,000,000 for industry studies and requirements definition. The Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Research, Development and Acquisition) is directed to provide to the 

congressional defense committees, with the fiscal year 2020 President’s budget, an updated acquisition strategy for CHAMP, to include requirements, acquisition milestones and cost estimates, as 

informed by industry studies. To stabilize the domestic shipbuilding industrial base, including the supply chain, the Committee 

encourages the Navy to consider the domestic sourcing requirements historically placed on sealift and auxiliary ships to CHAMP. 

Future Surface Combatant.—The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request includes $37,267,000 in fiscal year 2019, and 

$35,230,000 in fiscal year 2020 for the development of future surface combatants [FSC] requirements and an Analysis of Alternatives [AoA]. The Committee notes the extensive scope of the FSC 

AoA and directs the Director, Surface Warfare to submit with the 

fiscal year 2020 President’s budget request an updated Surface Capability Evolution Plan [SCEP] to the congressional defense committees. Further, the Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Research, 

Development and Acquisition) is directed to provide with the fiscal 

year 2020 President’s budget request the acquisition strategies for 

each element of the SCEP, and the Assistant Secretary of the Navy 

(Financial Management and Comptroller) is directed to provide the 

cost estimate for each element of the SCEP and to identify the 

funds included in the budget request in support of these acquisition 

strategies. 

F/A–18 and EA–18G Research and Development Efforts.—The 

fiscal year 2019 President’s budget includes $578,605,000 for various efforts to modernize and upgrade the F/A–18 and EA–18G, including F/A–18 Block III development which consists of 5 distinct 

efforts, Infrared Search and Track systems, EA–18G systems development, Multi-System Integration, physiological episode mitigation, 

F/A–18 radar upgrades, and F/A–18E/F service life assessment and 

extension programs. The Committee notes the improved briefing 

materials provided in support of the budget request, as requested 
174 

by the Committee, but believes that further improvement, to include timeliness in providing requested materials, could be 

achieved. Therefore, the Program Manager, PMA–265, is directed 

to provide supplemental budget materials, as previously requested 

by the Committee, with the budget briefing materials in support of 

future budget requests. 

Large Displacement Unmanned Undersea Vehicle [LDUUV].— The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget includes $92,613,000 to initiate the fabrication of two Phase I prototype LDUUVs. Subsequent 

to the budget submission, the Navy informed the Committee of 

plans to revise its LDUUV acquisition strategy and accelerate the 

LDUUV program by removing Phase II from the acquisition strategy and transitioning the Phase I design to industry 5 years earlier 

than previously planned, which eliminates the need for Phase II 

funding. The Committee supports the proposed acceleration of the 

program; however is concerned that the revised program schedule 

may be unaffordable. Therefore, the Committee recommends reducing the scope of the Phase I effort and further accelerating the 

transition of the LDUUV design to industry. The Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Research, Development and Acquisition) is directed to provide the congressional defense committees, with the 

fiscal year 2020 President’s budget request, an updated LDUUV acquisition strategy, and the Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Financial Management and Comptroller) is directed to provide updated 

cost estimates for the LDUUV program and to certify full funding 

in the budget request for the revised acquisition strategy. 

CVN 78 Full Ship Shock Trials.—The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request includes no funds to conduct Full Ship Shock 

Trials [FSST] on CVN 78. The Committee notes that full-scale ship 

shock trials on CVN 78 were included in the original CVN 78 test 

plans and that the need for FSST was subsequently reaffirmed by 

the Director, Operational Test and Evaluation, the then-Under Secretary of Defense (Acquisition, Technology and Logistics) and Congress. The Committee notes that subsequent to the fiscal year 2019 

President’s budget submission, the Secretary of Defense denied a 

request by the Navy to waive CVN 78 FSST in accordance with 

section 121(b) of the Fiscal Year 2018 National Defense Authorization Act, and that the Navy now plans to conduct FSST on CVN 

78, as directed. The Committee understands that this requires 

$25,000,000 in fiscal year 2019 and recommends transferring those 

funds from other CVN programs, as delineated in the tables for 

Committee Recommended Adjustments for the Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Navy and Shipbuilding and Conversion, Navy accounts. The Committee further understands that the 

Navy will fully budget for additional CVN 78 FSST requirements 

in the fiscal year 2020 President’s budget request. 

CVN 78 Sortie Generation Rate.—The Committee notes that the 

sortie generation rate [SGR] is a significant driver of the CVN 78 

design. The Committee understands that the reliability of key systems may impact SGR and that the SGR demonstration schedule 

and execution are under review. The Program Executive Officer, 

Aircraft Carriers, in coordination with the Director, Operational 

Test and Evaluation is directed to provide, with the fiscal year 

2020 President’s budget request, to the congressional defense com-
175 

mittees an updated plan for the SGR demonstration schedule and 

test requirements. The Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Financial 

Management and Comptroller) is directed to certify SGR demonstration full funding with the fiscal year 2020 President’s budget 

request. 

Extra Large Unmanned Underwater Vehicle.—The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request includes $117,856,000 in various 

program elements for the development of Extra Large Unmanned 

Underwater Vehicles [XLUUV] and associated payloads in response 

to a Joint Emergent Operational Need [JEON] from U.S. Pacific 

Command. The Committee notes that two competitive design contracts were awarded by the Navy for Phase 1 of the program and 

that the Navy had planned to conduct a competitive selection for 

Phase 2 in 2018. Subsequent to the submission of the fiscal year 

2019 President’s budget request, the Navy revised its acquisition 

strategy and informed the Committee that the Navy now plans to 

award Phase 2 fabrication contracts to both vendors. The Committee understands that this requires $25,000,000 in fiscal year 

2019 above the budget request and that additional funds will be required in fiscal years 2020—2023, which the Navy will include in 

the fiscal year 2020 President’s budget request. The Committee 

agrees with the revised acquisition strategy to allow for greater 

competition and recommends $25,000,000 above the budget request 

in fiscal year 2019, as required. The Assistant Secretary of the 

Navy (Financial Management and Comptroller) is directed to certify, with the fiscal year 2020 President’s budget request, full funding for the Navy’s revised acquisition strategy. 

Offensive Anti-Surface Warfare Increment I/Long Range AntiShip Missile Operational Test.—The Offensive Anti-Surface Warfare [OASuW] Increment I/Long Range Anti-Ship Missile [LRASM] 

will provide an early operational capability in 2018 in support of 

an Urgent Operational Needs Statement [UONS] from US. Pacific 

Fleet. The Committee notes that in the fiscal year 2019 President’s 

budget request, the Navy has included $129,400,000 in fiscal years 

2019 and 2020 for OASuW Increment I/LRASM capability improvements, which the Committee fully supports. However, the Committee is concerned that the Navy has not agreed to a test plan for 

these capability improvements with the Director, Operational Test 

and Evaluation, nor budgeted for any operational test requirements. 

The Committee does not agree with this approach and directs 

that of the funds requested in fiscal year 2019 for OASuW Increment I/LRASM capability improvements, no less than $20,000,000 

be applied toward operational test. Further, the Committee directs 

the Director, Operational Test and Evaluation, in coordination with 

the Deputy Chief of Naval Operations for Warfare Systems to provide to the congressional defense committees, with the fiscal year 

2020 President’s budget request, a plan for OASuW Increment I/ 

LRASM full independent operational test [IOT&E]; the Assistant 

Secretary of the Navy (Research, Development and Acquisition) is 

directed to submit an acquisition strategy that supports that test 

strategy; and the Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Financial Management and Comptroller) is directed to certify that the fiscal year 

2020 President’s budget request for OASuW Increment I/LRASM 
176 

fully funds the development of capability improvements and the associated operational test strategy. Finally, the Committee directs 

that not more than $25,000,000 may be obligated for OASuW Increment I/LRASM capability improvements in fiscal year 2019 

until the Deputy Chief of Naval Operations for Warfare Systems 

certifies the requirements for capability improvements to the congressional defense committees. 

Next Generation Jammer Low Band.—The fiscal year 2019 Presi- dent’s budget request includes $99,253,000 for the Next Generation 

Jammer Low Band program to continue the execution of up to 

three Demonstration of Existing Technology [DET] contracts, which 

the Navy plans to award in 2018. The Committee understands that 

the DET contracts will inform the acquisition strategy for the program and that the Navy is considering applying certain acceleration acquisition authorities. The Assistant Secretary of the Navy 

(Research, Development and Acquisition) is directed to provide to 

the congressional defense committees, with the fiscal year 2020 

President’s budget request, the acquisition strategies under consideration for further development of Next Generation Jammer Low 

Band. 

AEGIS Modernization.—The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request includes $396,403,000 to develop modifications to the 

AEGIS Weapon system and integrate combat capabilities developed 

by the Navy and the Missile Defense Agency into the AEGIS Combat System, an increase of $44,874,000 over amounts appropriated 

in fiscal year 2018. The Committee notes the improved joint briefing materials provided by the Navy and the Missile Defense Agency in support of the budget request and directs the Program Executive Officer, Integrated Warfare Systems, and the Director, Missile 

Defense Agency to continue to provide these materials, as subsequently modified per congressional request, in future budget briefings. 

Manpower, Personnel, Training and Education Transformation 

Program.—The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request includes 

$99,300,000 for Manpower, Personnel, Training and Education 

[MPT&E] transformation, an increase of $73,200,000 over amounts 

appropriated for fiscal year 2018. The Committee notes progress 

made by the Navy in managing this program; however, the Committee also notes that the MPT&E transformation requirements, 

acquisition strategy and a holistic cost estimate remain to be completed. The Committee recommends $64,300,000, an increase of 

$40,100,000 over amounts appropriated in fiscal year 2018, to allow 

for continued program progress and directs the Assistant Secretary 

of the Navy (Research, Development and Acquisition) to provide 

with the fiscal year 2020 President’s request the MPT&E acquisition strategy and the Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Financial 

Management and Comptroller) to provide the associated cost estimate. 

Amphibious Combat Vehicle 1.2.—The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request includes $55,800,000 for the Amphibious 

Combat Vehicle [ACV] 1.2 program, an increase of $26,400,000 

over amounts previously programmed for that effort for fiscal year 

2019. The Committee notes the significant ACV 1.2 program concurrency with the ACV 1.1 development and production program, 
177 

to include the modification of ACV 1.1 test vehicles for ACV 1.2 developmental test. Noting the Marine Corps’ historical struggles 

with replacing its amphibious assault vehicle fleet, the Committee 

is concerned with the programmatic and cost risk this strategy 

brings to both the ACV 1.1 and 1.2 programs. The Committee directs the Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Research, Development, 

and Acquisition) to submit, not later than 30 days after Milestone 

C for ACV 1.1, an updated cost and schedule estimate for ACV 1.2. 

DDG 1000 Mission Change.—The fiscal year 2019 President’s request includes $40,852,000 in fiscal year 2019 and $396,194,000 

over the next 5 years in research, development, test and evaluation 

for development efforts in support of new DDG 1000 mission requirements. The Committee notes that the requirements, schedules 

and revised Test and Evaluation Master Plan in support of the new 

DDG 1000 mission are not yet complete and therefore recommends 

a reduction of $21,000,000. 

Hydrographic Survey System Upgrade for Diver Propulsion Devices.—The Committee understands the Marine Corps is seeking to 

upgrade existing diver propulsion devices [DPD] assets to enable 

precise navigation and autonomous hydrographic survey. The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Navy to develop an autonomous hydrographic survey capability for the DPD which provides 

other advanced capabilities through retrofitting of existing DPD 

units, and supports autonomous hydrographic survey for inspection 

and analysis of critical littoral waterways. 

Aircraft Fleet Readiness and Sustainment.—The Committee remains concerned with the challenges faced by the Navy and Marine 

Corps to maintain the readiness of their air vehicle fleets, and extend the useful life of aging aircraft. The Committee notes the valuable role university research institutions can provide in conducting research and development that translates into technological capabilities to address these readiness gaps. Therefore, the 

Committee recommends $10,000,000 for aircraft fleet readiness and 

sustainment research conducted at universities with state-of-theart capabilities in structures and materials to support these efforts. 

Advanced Hull Form Development and Demonstration.—The 

Committee has supported the Navy’s investment in sophisticated 

computer hydrodynamic modeling and simulation tools for the design, testing, and analysis of high-performance and high-efficiency 

hull forms of small planing boats. The Committee recommends 

$8,000,000 for an advanced hull form development and prototype 

demonstration and at-sea testing initiative to accelerate the development and transition of advanced hull designs, particularly hull 

forms that reduce injury to craft operators and warfighters. 

Power Generation and Storage Research.—The Committee continues to support Navy investments in power generation and energy storage research, and recommends an increase of $5,000,000 

for that purpose. The Committee understands that development 

and deployment of lithium-ion batteries are critical to Department 

of Defense missions, but that safety incidents restrict their operational use. Therefore, the Committee believes that the development and qualification of materials technologies, including nonflammable electrolytes, to reduce the risk of thermal runaway and 
178 

improve safety in lithium-ion batteries should be a research priority. 

Marine Corps Asset Life-Cycle Management.—The Committee 

supports the Marine Corps’ efforts to substantially reduce costs associated with routine maintenance and recommends $2,000,000 for 

further research and development in the areas of remanufacturing 

and vehicle behavior monitoring. 

Maritime Robotics Technology.—The Committee notes the Department of the Navy investments to develop autonomous systems 

and capabilities in support of future naval capabilities. The Committee encourages the Navy to continue its support for the cost-effective development of maritime robotic systems, including research, testing, and demonstration of unmanned underwater vehicle security and surveillance systems, robotic inspection and survey 

tools for vessels and port facilities, munition retrieval, environmental monitoring, including acoustic and non-acoustic detection 

capability improvements, shared autonomy, adaptive decisionmaking, docking, 3–D imaging, power and data transfer. The Committee believes that university-based research and innovation centered on the development of maritime robotic technology could be 

essential in maintaining competitive advantage in the future. 

Silicon Carbide Power Electronics.—The Committee supports the 

Navy’s investment to develop advanced power and energy technology to meet requirements for higher electric power loads 

through efficient means. The Committee understands that use of 

silicon carbide power modules may reduce the size and weight of 

power conversion modules and other electronic systems necessary 

for advanced sensors and weapon systems. The Committee recommends $5,000,000 for silicon carbide power electronics research 

and encourages the Secretary of the Navy to continue to invest in 

advanced power and energy technology and accelerate the qualification of silicon carbide power modules to be used on highpower, 

mission critical Navy platforms. 

Improving Performance of Military Platforms.—Turbulent boundary layers form in the air or in water along the surfaces of all aircraft and marine platforms, and produce a force that opposes the 

motion of the vehicle. The Committee understands that mitigating 

such drag is central to the goals of reducing fuel consumption and 

optimizing performance of military platforms, such as ships, submarines, and transport and fighter aircraft. However, the Committee notes that there exists only limited domestic capability to 

experimentally study these phenomena. Therefore, the Committee 

encourages the Chief of Naval Research to examine the Navy’s infrastructure and technical capabilities to experimentally quantify 

aircraft and marine platforms relevant turbulent boundary layers 

at high spatial and temporal resolution, and to address any identified gaps in experimental and modeling capabilities. 

E2–D Hawkeye Advanced Radar.—The Committee recognizes the 

importance for the Navy to improve the airborne surveillance and 

battle management command and control systems of the E–2D 

Hawkeye to protect against sophisticated adversaries with antiship cruise and ballistic missiles. Therefore, the Committee recommends $12,000,000 to continue improving the radar capability of 

the E–2D Hawkeye. Further, to stay ahead of the evolving threat, 
179 

the Committee directs the Deputy Chief of Naval Operations for 

Warfare Systems to complete a comprehensive review of the E–2D 

radar to determine if there are unmet requirements for an Advanced Radar that could improve airborne surveillance and battle 

management command and control systems of the E–2D Hawkeye, 

and to report to the congressional defense committees not later 

than 90 days after enactment of this act on the findings of such review. 

Advanced Additive Technologies For Sustainment of Navy Assets.—The Committee recognizes the need to accelerate the delivery 

of technical capabilities to support the warfighter and to advance 

technologies that will modernize and sustain military systems in 

an efficient, cost-effective manner. The Committee recommends 

$20,000,000 to support the development of advanced additive technologies for sustainment of Navy assets, including cold spray.

Advanced Composites.—The Committee recognizes the unique 

role of the Air Force in developing advanced composites for next 

generation air and space vehicles. The Committee also recognizes 

the contribution of university research institutions to the Air Force 

in understanding the technology, processes, and materials used in 

advanced composites manufacturing as well as addressing shortages of qualified scientists and engineers. The Committee recommends additional funding in applied research and encourages 

the Air Force to continue to support the test, evaluation, and cer-
189 

tification of advanced composites at academic institutions with 

proven capabilities in aviation and aerospace. 

Technology Transfer.—The Committee recognizes the importance 

of technology transfer between the Federal Government and nonFederal entities, such as academia, nonprofit organizations, and 

State and local governments. Technology transfer lowers the cost 

of new defense-related technology development and ensures that 

taxpayer investments in research and development benefit the 

economy and the industrial base. The Committee encourages the 

Department of Defense to continue placing an increased focus on 

technology transfer programs by allocating sufficient funding and 

leveraging the work being performed by Federal laboratories. 

Prototyping and Experimentation.—The fiscal year 2019 Presi- dent’s budget request includes $1,186,075,000 in the Technology 

Transition Program to demonstrate, prototype, and experiment 

with innovative technologies and concepts to accelerate their transition to acquisition programs and eventual operational use. Specifically, the Technology Transition Program includes the Adaptive 

Engine Transition Program [AETP], hypersonics prototyping, 

smaller lifecycle developmental prototyping efforts, and experimentation campaigns. The Committee remains supportive of these activities, but is concerned about the amount of transparency and 

budget documentation provided in the budget request. Therefore, 

the Committee recommendation includes separate budget lines and 

program elements for the larger activities within the Technology 

Transition Program, to include AETP, hypersonics prototyping, and 

directed energy prototyping. The Committee recommends keeping 

the shorter-term prototyping and experimentation activities in the 

Technology Transition Program for greater flexibility to explore 

new ideas, concepts, and technologies. The Committee continues to 

expect timely and complete communication from the Air Force on 

prototyping and experimentation activities to include objectives and 

requirements, transition plans, technology and manufacturing 

readiness levels, test activities, costs, schedules, and performance 

metrics. 

Air Force Alternative Energy Research.—The Committee is concerned that the Air Force is under-emphasizing the transition of alternative energy research into Air Force enterprise requirements. 

Therefore, the Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force to 

report to the congressional defense committees not later than 90 

days after enactment of this act detailing how the Air Force aligns 

its alternative energy research agenda with enterprise requirements. The report should include the metrics used to evaluate how 

the expenditure of funds serve the goals identified in its Energy 

Flight Plan: 2017–2036 and how the Air Force plans to transition 

existing alternative energy research, development, test and evaluation projects to meet Air Force energy requirements. 

Advanced Pilot Training Program.—The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request includes $265,465,000 to develop the Advanced Pilot Trainer, a modern system to train 4th and 5th generation pilots. The Committee understands that the Air Force plans to 

complete source selection and award the engineering, manufacturing, and development [EMD] contract in the summer of 2018. 

Given the age and the cost of sustaining the legacy T–38C pilot 
190 

training system as well as the Air Force’s growing pilot shortage, 

the Committee encourages the Air Force to not further delay the 

award of the EMD contract and subsequently consider options to 

accelerate the program after contract award. 

SPACE PROGRAMS

Space Acquisition Strategy.—The Committee supports the Air 

Force’s plans to develop more capable and defendable satellites and 

appreciates the intention to be faster, more agile, and more innovative. The Committee also understands that there will be risks and 

tradeoffs with such a shift in strategy that will mean less predictability and possibly failures. The Committee’s concerns, articulated 

in the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2018 (Public 

Law 115–141), are not about the risks involved with innovation or 

speed, but rather the risks involved with redeveloping nearly every 

major space system simultaneously. As noted last year, the Air 

Force is beginning development efforts for space situation awareness; position, navigation, and timing; weather; overhead persistent 

infrared; wide-band communications; and protected communications, with major changes to the program of record planned in 

nearly every case. The Committee remains concerned that the decision to accept less predictability and the possibility of failure in all 

of these programs simultaneously may pose unacceptable risks to 

constellation sustainment. These risks may be compounded in an 

environment where the acquisition workforce, rooted in contemplation and caution, is asked to shift its culture toward speed and 

agility for so many efforts. Moreover, the Committee is concerned 

that the funding peaks and troughs that will likely result from simultaneous architecture recapitalization may not take into account 

budget realities and may risk sustainment of the industrial base at 

levels adequate for future program needs. The Committee looks forward to receiving the report directed last year that will provide an 

assessment of these issues and looks forward to working with the 

Department to achieve the best way forward for the future of these 

space programs. 

Next-Generation Overhead Persistent Infrared.—The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request includes $643,126,000 for NextGeneration Overhead Persistent Infrared [OPIR], the successor to 

the Space Based Infrared System [SBIRS]. This is in addition to 

the $327,002,000 appropriated in the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2018 (Public Law 115–141) for the start of NextGen OPIR, following a shift in the Air Force strategy away from 

a prior plan to purchase additional SBIRS space vehicles. The 

Committee is supportive of the Air Force’s efforts to provide improved missile warning capabilities that are more survivable 

against emerging threats. However, the Committee has concerns 

about several shifts in the program plans over the past year, delays 

in providing a spend plan for the program, and requests for additional funds so soon after the program’s start. The Committee is 

hopeful that these initial hiccups do not signal challenges ahead in 

meeting the aggressive timelines laid out by the Department. The 

Committee agrees with Air Force and Department leadership that 

Next-Gen OPIR will be a pacesetter for rapid acquisition of space 

programs. Therefore, despite these concerns, the Committee rec-
191 

ommends fully funding the Air Force budget request. In addition, 

the Committee recommends an additional $100,000,000 for advanced sensor development. The Committee reiterates guidance 

from last year that OPIR is designated as a congressional special 

interest item and continues to direct the Secretary of the Air Force 

to provide quarterly briefings to the congressional defense committees detailing progress against cost and schedule milestones.

Trusted Microelectronics.—In the fiscal year 2019 budget submission, the Department requested $587,320,000 for trusted and assured microelectronics and DARPA’s Electronics Resurgence Initiative. The Committee is pleased to see the Department prioritize 

programs that will ensure access to trusted microelectronics and 

develop manufacturing processes for next generation chips. However, the Committee notes that additional funds are needed in fiscal year 2019 for the United States to maintain global microelectronics leadership and added $447,000,000 above the President’s 

budget request to accelerate multiple efforts. Therefore, the Com-
200 

mittee directs the Under Secretary of Defense (Research and Engineering) to provide a report to the congressional defense committees not later than 180 days after enactment of this act which details a plan for using increased resources to accelerate the trusted 

microelectronics strategy and roadmap. The report shall also include a definition of the scope of the microelectronics problem; an 

update on domestic manufacturing capability and infrastructure 

needed to provide legacy and future chips for our weapons systems; 

and testing protocols that the Department is utilizing to ensure 

current microelectronics have achieved security assurance. 

Artificial Intelligence.—The Committee understands the importance of investing in high priority advanced technology areas such 

as artificial intelligence [AI] and machine learning in order to 

maintain the United States’ military superiority and technological 

edge over near-peer adversaries. Accordingly, the Committee adds 

$308,000,000 in addition to amounts requested in the fiscal year 

2019 budget submission to achieve dominant AI capabilities, including an additional $150,000,000 for the algorithmic warfare 

cross function team also known as Project Maven and $83,000,000 

to establish a Joint Artificial Intelligence Center. The Committee 

believes these critical investments will accelerate the pursuit of 

state of the art AI systems that can be rapidly adapted to the 

warfighting mission needs of the Department. Therefore, the Committee directs the Under Secretary of Defense (Research and Engineering) to brief the congressional defense committees with a comprehensive plan to execute additional funding provided for AI and 

machine learning not later than 180 days after enactment of this 

act and strongly encourages the Department to establish long-term, 

strategic partnerships with non-traditional defense contractors that 

operate outside of the traditional defense industrial base. 

Short-Wave Infrared Cameras.—The Committee is aware of recent advances in ultra-fast short-wave infrared camera technology 

that rapidly capture images and detect threats with extreme sensitivity and precision. New advances in machine vision, powered by 

rapidly growing artificial intelligence and neuromorphic technologies can absorb and process data at much higher rates. The 

Committee encourages the Secretary of Defense to increase its research investments into these areas with the goal of creating new 

threat identification systems. 

Manufacturing Technology Program.—The Committee understands that metal castings play a significant role in ensuring 

warfighter preparedness and that investment is needed in castings 

technology to maintain technological superiority in the advanced 

manufacturing industry. Therefore, the Committee provides an additional $5,000,0000 for the Manufacturing Technology Program 

and encourages the Secretary of Defense to invest in metal castings 

technology. 

All Solid-State Battery Technology.—The Committee recognizes 

that development of all solid-state battery technology could dramatically increase the energy density of current batteries while 

providing a safer power system by eliminating the need for a flammable electrolyte and reducing the complexity of the battery management system. Batteries with higher energy densities would improve a soldier’s warfighting capability by reducing the weight of 
201 

multiple batteries required for combat operations. The Committee 

encourages the Secretary of Defense to continue investments that 

improve battery densities thereby reducing the weight carried by 

soldiers in the field. 

Strategic and Critical Minerals.—The Committee understands 

that the United States is reliant on the importation of strategic 

and critical minerals that are essential to national defense and believes that the Department of Defense should be integrated into the 

comprehensive Federal strategy as directed by Executive Order 

13817. Therefore, the Committee directs the Under Secretary of 

Defense (Research and Engineering) and the Director of the Defense Logistics Agency to produce a joint report to the congressional defense committees not later than 180 days after enactment 

of this act which details Department of Defense acquisition programs that require strategic and critical minerals, foreign sources 

of these minerals, and current supply levels of critical minerals in 

US stockpiles available for Department usage. In addition, the report should describe Department agencies that are capable of performing topographic, geologic, and geophysical mapping of the 

United States and a list of strategic and critical minerals that 

should be prioritized for mapping in order to enhance supply chain 

security. 

Manufacturing Engineering Programs.—The Committee recognizes that the United States must maintain a technically trained 

workforce to meet the defense industrial base requirements of the 

Department of Defense. Therefore, the Committee recommends an 

additional $5,000,000 above the fiscal year 2019 President’s budget 

request for manufacturing engineering grants and encourages the 

Secretary of Defense to prioritize funding under this program to 

support community colleges and technical schools. 

National Defense Education Program.—The Committee understands that the Nation’s global economic competitiveness and national security are dependent on a strong foundation in science, 

technology, engineering and math and believes that increased investment is needed by the Department in these fields. Therefore, 

the Committee provides an increase in basic research funds for the 

National Defense Education Program and encourages the Department to partner with the Goldwater Foundation for additional education scholarships.

Cyber Red Team Testing.—The Committee recognizes the Department’s efforts to enhance and develop cyber threat emulation capabilities through the use of cyber Red Teams. The Committee is concerned with the volume of cyber intrusions that threaten our weapons systems and remains concerned with the inability of the Department of Defense to get ahead of this constant evolving threat. 

Therefore, the Committee directs the Director, Office of Operational 

Test and Evaluation, in consultation with the Secretary of Defense, 

to provide a report to the congressional defense committees not 

later than 90 days of enactment of this act on the cyber 

vulnerabilities of the nation’s critical weapons systems. The classified report should outline the identified threats along with the resources required to mitigate such threats. Further, in cases where 

vulnerabilities were determined for a weapons system, the Director 

shall provide an explanation of what actions haven been taken to 

date to address such deficiencies.

Meals Ready to Eat and reaffirms its support for the War Reserve 

stock objective of 5.0 million cases and the minimum sustainment 

rate for the industrial base. 

Defense Commissary Agency.—The Department of Defense recently announced its intention to begin the sale of beer and wine 

in defense commissaries. The Committee supports this decision as 

a measure to increase customer convenience and satisfaction. However, the Committee notes that the sale of distilled spirits is not 

included in the new policy. Since military commissary stores are intended to be similar to commercial grocery stores and roughly half 
204 

of States legally sell distilled spirits in grocery stores, the Committee believes that the Department should have explored this option to further improve customer convenience at all military commissaries. The Committee directs the Undersecretary of Defense 

(Personnel and Readiness) to review the policy for sale of alcohol 

at military commissaries and submit a report to the House and 

Senate Appropriations Committees not later than 90 days after the 

enactment of this act on the decisions which led to the exclusion 

of distilled spirits and whether the Department will reconsider its 

decision to restrict the sale of distilled spirits in military commissaries.

Defense Health Program Reprogramming Procedures.—The Committee remains concerned regarding the transfer of funds from the 

In-House Care budget sub-activity to pay for contractor-provided 

medical care. To limit such transfers and improve oversight within 

the Defense Health Program operation and maintenance account, 
207 

the Committee includes a provision which caps the funds available 

for Private Sector Care under the TRICARE program subject to 

prior approval reprogramming procedures. The provision and accompanying report language should not be interpreted by the Department as limiting the amount of funds that may be transferred 

to the Direct Care System from other budget activities within the 

Defense Health Program. In addition, funding for the In-House 

Care and Private Sector Care budget sub-activities are designated 

as congressional special interest items. Any transfer of funds in excess of $15,000,000 into or out of these sub-activities requires the 

Secretary of Defense to follow prior approval reprogramming procedures. 

The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to provide written notification to the congressional defense committees of cumulative transfers in excess of $10,000,000 out of the Private Sector 

Care budget sub-activity not later than fifteen days after such a 

transfer. The Committee further directs the Assistant Secretary of 

Defense (Health Affairs) to provide quarterly reports to the congressional defense committees on budget execution data for all of 

the Defense Health Program budget activities and to adequately reflect changes to the budget activities requested by the Services in 

future budget submissions. 

Carryover.—For fiscal year 2019, the Committee recommends 1 

percent carryover authority for the operation and maintenance account of the Defense Health Program. The Committee directs the 

Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to submit a detailed 

spend plan for any fiscal year 2018 designated carryover funds to 

the congressional defense committees not less than 30 days prior 

to executing the carryover funds. 

Resolution of Payments to State Vaccine Programs.—The Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2018 (Public Law 115–141) directed the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to 

prioritize the payment of arrears to state vaccine programs in expenditure of fiscal year 2018 carryover funds. The Committee directs the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to provide 

a report to the congressional defense committees not later than 45 

days after enactment of this act on how the Department plans to 

make final payment of arrears to state vaccine programs. 

Operation and Maintenance Reductions.—The fiscal year 2019 

President’s budget request includes Department-initiated reductions in most Operation and Maintenance sub-activities to account 

for the Government Accountability Office’s analysis of prior year 

execution. The Committee commends the Department for taking 

this step and expects future budget requests to align with recent 

execution trends. The Committee notes that the budget justification 

materials for the Defense Health Program do not delineate operation and maintenance funding between the Defense Health Agency, Army, Navy, Air Force, Uniformed Services University of 

Health Sciences, and National Capital Region Medical Directorate. 

Given this lack of granular visibility, the Department is expected 

to implement operation and maintenance reductions among the 

various components in accordance with their historical underexecution. 
208 

Electronic Health Record.—The Committee remains supportive of 

the goal of the Departments of Defense and Veterans Affairs to develop fully interoperable electronic health records that can exchange data in a meaningful way and be used in a dynamic environment to improve patient care and facilitate smoother transitions 

for servicemembers from military service to veteran status. After 

achieving initial operating capability in November 2017 with completion of deployment to four sites in the Pacific Northwest, the Department decided to undertake an eight week Stabilization and 

Adoption period in order to evaluate the initial deployments. This 

evaluation included an analysis of roles, workflows, and training 

activities and further collection of user feedback in order to implement changes prior to continuing the wave deployment schedule to 

more military treatment facilities, with a decision on further deployments scheduled for January 2019. 

Given this delay in the deployment of the Military Health System [MHS] GENESIS program, the Committee recommends a reduction of $80,000,000 to the fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request and a rescission of $215,000,000 of fiscal year 2018 procurement funds in order to properly realign resources to a revised deployment plan. The Committee also recommends $70,000,000 above 

the budget request for the Medical Community of Interest [MedCOI], the IT infrastructure backbone of the new electronic health 

record, as the Department has acknowledged that Med-COI deployment should precede MHS GENESIS deployment by 6 months at 

each site. The Committee expects that execution information for 

these additional funds will be clearly laid out in the fiscal year 

2020 budget justification materials. The Committee understands 

that the next 6 months will be an important time for MHS GENESIS with upcoming program decisions on a plan for expanding 

Med-COI in July 2018, an updated Life Cycle Cost Estimate in Fall 

2018, and a decision on further wave deployments in January 2019. 

The Committee anticipates timely updates as these program decisions are made. 

The Program Executive Officer, Defense Healthcare Management 

Systems [PEO DHMS], in conjunction with the Director of the 

Interagency Program Office [IPO], is directed to provide quarterly 

reports to the congressional defense committees on the cost and 

schedule of the program, to include milestones, knowledge points, 

and acquisition timelines, as well as quarterly obligation reports. 

These reports should also include the following: (1) any changes to 

the deployment timeline, including benchmarks, for full operating 

capability; (2) any refinements to the cost estimate for full operating capability and the total life cycle cost of the project; and (3) 

the progress toward developing, implementing, and fielding the 

interoperable electronic health record throughout the two Departments’ medical facilities. The Committee further directs the PEO 

DHMS to continue briefing the House and Senate Defense Appropriations Subcommittees on a quarterly basis, coinciding with the 

report submission. 

Finally, the Committee directs the IPO to continue to provide 

quarterly reports to the House and Senate Subcommittees on Appropriations for Defense and Military Construction, Veterans Af-
209 

fairs, and Related Agencies on the progress of interoperability between the two Departments. 

Traumatic Brain Injury [TBI]/ Psychological Health.—The Committee recommends $60,000,000 above the fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request for continued research into treatment, prevention, and detection of TBI and improved psychological health. 

The Committee directs the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health 

Affairs) to submit a report to the congressional defense committees 

not later than 180 days of enactment of this act on expenditure and 

obligation data of additional funding added by Congress for psychological health and TBI. This report should include information on 

agreements made with other government agencies. 

Additionally, the Committee is aware of recent medical advances 

in drug development for neurodegenerative diseases and encourages the Department to further its research into developing drugs 

that reverse, halt, or slow the neurodegenerative process associated 

with TBI including opportunities through public-private partnerships, such as the Medical Technology Consortium. The Committee 

is also aware of efforts to establish a brain donor network to better 

understand mild traumatic brain injury and identify biomarkers 

for diagnosis and monitoring. The Committee supports expansion of 

this network and inclusion of states with high populations of veterans and suicide incidence into this research. Finally, the Committee is encouraged by the advancement of expeditionary, noninvasive medical devices for analyzing the full spectrum of TBI 

that have received clearance by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. These devices provide clinicians with a comprehensive and 

objective clinical picture to help them identify the full spectrum of 

brain injuries shortly after injury, and the Committee encourages 

continued test and evaluation of such devices. 

Peer-Reviewed Medical Research Program.—The Committee recommends $330,000,000 for the Peer-Reviewed Medical Research 

Program. The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense, in conjunction with the Service Surgeons General, to select medical research projects of clear scientific merit and direct relevance to military health. Research areas considered under this funding are restricted to: acute lung injury, antimicrobial resistance, arthritis, 

autism, burn pit exposure, cardiomyopathy, chronic migraine and 

post-traumatic headache, congenital heart disease, constrictive 

bronchiolitis, diabetes, dystonia, eating disorders, emerging infectious diseases, epidermolysis bullosa, focal segmental 

glomerulosclerosis, frontotemporal degeneration, Guillain-Barre 

Syndrome, gulf war illness, hearing regeneration and restoration, 

hemorrhage control, hepatitis B, hereditary angioedema, hydrocephalus, immunomonitoring of intestinal transplants, inflammatory bowel diseases, interstitial cystitis, lung injury, lupus, metals toxicology, mitochondrial disease, multiple sclerosis, musculoskeletal conditions, myotonic dystrophy, nanomaterials for bone regeneration, neurofibromatosis, nutrition optimization, orthopedics, 

pancreatitis, Parkinson’s, pathogen-inactivated blood products, 

polycystic kidney disease, post-traumatic osteoarthritis, pressure 

ulcers, pulmonary fibrosis, reconstructive transplantation, resilience training, respiratory health, Rett syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, scleroderma, sleep disorders, spinal muscular atrophy, 
210 

tinnitus, tissue regeneration, tuberculosis, tuberous sclerosis complex, vascular malformations, vision, and women’s heart disease. 

The Committee emphasizes that the additional funding provided 

under the Peer-Reviewed Medical Research Program shall be devoted only to the purposes listed above. 

Joint Warfighter Medical Research Program.—The Committee 

recommends $50,000,000 for the Joint Warfighter Medical Research Program. Funds shall be used to augment and accelerate 

high priority Department of Defense and Service medical requirements and to continue both core and congressionally-directed prior 

year initiatives that are close to achieving their objectives and 

yielding a benefit to military medicine. These funds shall not be 

used for new projects or basic research, and they shall be awarded 

at the discretion of the Secretary of Defense following a review of 

medical research and development gaps, as well as unfinanced 

medical requirements of the Services. Further, the Committee directs the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to provide 

a report not later than 180 days after the enactment of this act to 

the congressional defense committees, which lists the projects that 

receive funding. The report should include the funding amount 

awarded to each project, a thorough description of each project’s research, and the benefit the research will provide to the Department 

of Defense. 

Peer-Reviewed Cancer Research Programs.—The Committee recommends $120,000,000 for the peer-reviewed breast cancer research program, $64,000,000 for the peer-reviewed prostate cancer 

research program, $10,000,000 for the peer-reviewed ovarian cancer research program, $10,000,000 for a peer-reviewed melanoma 

research program, and $80,000,000 for the peer-reviewed cancer research program that would research cancers not addressed in the 

aforementioned programs currently executed by the Department of 

Defense. 

The funds provided in the peer-reviewed cancer research program are directed to be used to conduct research in the following 

areas: bladder cancer, blood cancers, brain cancer, colorectal cancer, immunotherapy, kidney cancer, liver cancer, mesothelioma, 

neuroblastoma, pancreatic cancer, pediatric brain tumors, rare cancers, and stomach cancer. 

The funds provided under the peer-reviewed cancer research program shall be used only for the purposes listed above. The Committee directs the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) 

to provide a report not later than 180 days after the enactment of 

this act to the congressional defense committees on the status of 

the peer-reviewed cancer research program. For each research 

area, the report should include the funding amount awarded, the 

progress of the research, and the relevance of the research to 

servicemembers. 

Orthotics and Prosthetics Outcomes Research.—The Committee 

recommends $10,000,000 in support of orthotics and prosthetics 

outcomes research. The focus of this research should be on outcomes-based best practices through analysis of the merits of clinical 

options currently available, not on the development or improvement of new and existing technology. The Committee directs the 

Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to provide a report 
211 

not later than 180 days after the enactment of this act to the congressional defense committees on the peer-reviewed projects that 

receive funding. The report should include the funding amount 

awarded to each project and the anticipated effect on patient care. 

Advanced Orthopedic Surgical Training.—The Committee understands that servicemembers and their families regularly undergo 

orthopedic procedures and that these types of musculoskeletal injuries account for a significant amount of medical separations or retirements from military service. Delivery of direct training based 

on best practices related to orthopedic procedures for injuries to the 

knee, shoulder, and other extremities has become an increasingly 

important readiness issue. The Committee strongly encourages the 

Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to provide military 

orthopedic health professionals advanced surgical training in 

arthroscopic techniques and do so in partnership with medical professional societies that maintain best practices related to 

arthroscopic surgery and techniques. 

Mental Health Professionals.—The Committee recognizes that 

servicemembers and their families face unique stresses beyond 

those of everyday life. After over 15 years of war, the need for mental health professionals in the Department is at an all-time high, 

and the Committee believes that every beneficiary of the Military 

Health System should have timely access to mental health services. 

However, the Committee is concerned with the Department’s inability to recruit and retain enough psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, nurse practitioners, and registered nurses to provide 

adequate mental healthcare. 

The Government Accountability Office review of this issue found 

that progress is being made regarding the annual reporting of mental health professional staffing needs. However, GAO also noted 

that the Services need to accurately report any additional measures 

used to supplement the Psychological Health Risk-Adjusted Model 

for Staffing [PHRAMS] as well as report their PHRAMS-generated 

estimates in the requirements fields of the Defense Health Agency’s quarterly mental health staffing reports. 

The Committee encourages the Assistant Secretary of Defense 

(Health Affairs), the Director of the Defense Health Agency, and 

the Service Surgeons General to continue to work together to ensure annual estimates of mental health professionals meet the 

needs of all beneficiaries in the military health system. In addition, 

the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) is directed to 

prepare as part of DHA’s fiscal year 2020 budget submission a review of these estimates as well as an outline of current challenges 

in recruiting and retaining mental health professionals by the Department of Defense. 

Chronic Pain Management Research.—The Committee recommends $10,000,000 for a chronic pain management research program to research opioid-alternative or non-addictive methods to 

treat and manage chronic pain. Chronic pain is defined as a pain 

that occurs on at least half the days for 6 months or more, and 

which can be caused by issues including, but not limited to: 

combat- and training-related physical or mental stress and trauma, 

migraines and chronic headaches, traumatic brain injury, arthritis, 

muscular-skeletal conditions, neurological disease, tick and vector- 
212 

borne disease, other insect-transmitted or tropical disease, and cancer. The funds provided in the chronic pain management research 

program shall be used to conduct research on the effects of using 

prescription opioids to manage chronic pain and for researching alternatives, namely non-opioid or non-addictive methods to treat 

and manage chronic pain, with a focus on issues related to military 

populations. The Committee encourages the Department to collaborate with non-military research institutions, such as the institutions of the National Institutes of Health Pain Consortium, and the 

institutions represented in the Interagency Pain Research Coordinating Committee, to address the efforts outlined in the 2016 National Pain Strategy. 

Warfighter Respiratory Health.—The Committee remains concerned about respiratory ailments among deployed and returning 

servicemembers and their deleterious effects on combat and personnel readiness. It is estimated that respiratory diseases affect 

more than 100,000 servicemembers each year and result in almost 

27,000 lost workdays per year. The Committee has included respiratory health as part of the Peer-Reviewed Medical Research Program and believes that further development of a comprehensive, 

broad-based warfighter respiratory research program is necessary 

to support overall readiness. The Assistant Secretary of Defense 

(Health Affairs) is directed to provide a report to the congressional 

defense committees not later than 120 days after the enactment of 

this act detailing the scope and impact of respiratory illness on 

military personnel—particularly on deployed troops—dating from 

the first Gulf War to the present. 

Epilepsy Research.—The Committee is concerned about the large 

number of service men and women returning from combat zones 

who have sustained traumatic brain injuries [TBI] and the long 

term consequences of TBI. These wounded warriors are at high risk 

for developing post-traumatic epilepsy, depression, cognitive difficulties, and post-traumatic stress disorder, which may be interconnected. As current TBI longitudinal studies have not included 

epilepsy, the Committee encourages the Department to place greater priority and invest more funding in longitudinal epidemiological 

research, including epilepsy surveillance, to better understand the 

magnitude of the problem and improve patient care and outcomes. 

To assist in these efforts, the Committee recommends $7,500,000 

in support of epilepsy research. Additionally, the Committee urges 

the Department to expand research into the mechanisms by which 

brain injury produces epilepsy and research directed at the prevention of epilepsy and concomitant comorbidities in those known to 

be at high risk. 

Melanoma Research.—The Committee understands that melanoma diagnoses are increasing among active duty servicemembers 

and that melanoma is the fifth most common cancer among veterans. Recent research suggests that exposure to high levels of 

solar radiation in young adulthood is associated with a higher risk 

of melanoma mortality. Given the extreme and harsh conditions 

servicemembers face in theater and the rise of this aggressive and 

frequently deadly form of cancer, the Committee encourages the 

Department to continue its investments in melanoma research and 
213 

recommends $10,000,000 for a peer-reviewed melanoma research 

program. 

Sleep Disorder Research.—The Committee recognizes that sleep 

disorders are increasingly prevalent among servicemembers and 

that such disruptions have been associated with diverse mental 

and physical disorders, including traumatic brain injury and posttraumatic stress. The Committee applauds the Army for acknowledging the importance of sleep in achieving optimal physical, mental, and emotional health and including sleep as a focus in the Performance Triad. In support of this effort, the Committee urges the 

Department to support basic, translational, and clinical research on 

how the disruption of normal sleep and circadian biological 

rhythms adversely affects the health, safety, performance, and productivity of military and civilian populations. 

National Trauma Research Action Plan.—The Committee notes 

that the U.S. military continues to be a leader in trauma research 

with its core investments in combat casualty care. A 2016 report 

by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine 

estimated that 25 percent of battlefield deaths and 20 percent of 

civilian deaths after injury could have been prevented by appropriate and timely medical care. This same report recommended creation of a National Trauma Research Action Plan [NTRAP] in 

order to coordinate research between the military and civilian sectors and work towards achieving zero preventable trauma deaths. 

NTRAP may provide the framework for a coordinated research program that would be able to unify and focus research efforts across 

Federal agencies and identify critical gaps in trauma research. The 

Committee recommends $201,700,000 for core Defense Health Program research and encourages the Department to continue its investments in trauma care and creation of NTRAP. 

Inclusion of Women and Minorities in the Congressionally-Directed Medical Research Program.—The Committee recognizes that 

the Congressionally-Directed Medical Research Program supports 

essential research to respond to the healthcare needs of 

servicemembers, their dependents, and retirees. In a series of laws, 

including the 21st Century Cures Act, Congress directed the National Institutes of Health to update relevant policies and implement accountability mechanisms to ensure that research supported 

by the agency included and conducted the appropriate analysis to 

identify the differential impact of research interventions on populations that are often underrepresented in clinical research, including women, and racial and ethnic minorities. 

To continue improving the inclusion of women and minorities in 

federally funded research, the Committee directs the Department 

of Defense to develop a plan to ensure the appropriate representation of women and minorities in its extramural research. Specifically, this plan shall include mechanisms to measure, enforce, assess the adequacy of, and improve the: (1) representation of women 

and minorities in each clinical trial, as well as the data on the specific challenges researchers face in seeking to include women and 

minorities in their studies; (2) examination of biological variables, 

including the appropriate analysis of differential outcomes by sex, 

in clinical research; (3) practice of making clinical findings, subgroup analyses, and data publicly available, as appropriate and ap-
214 

plicable; and (4) requirements (including, but not limited to, programmatic controls) and updated guidelines to ensure the appropriate representation of women in clinical research. Outcomes 

should also be analyzed for potential sex differences. This plan 

should be developed in coordination with the National Institutes of 

Health and submitted to the congressional defense committees not 

later than 180 days after the enactment of this act. 

Behavioral and Mental Health Care for National Guard and Reserve.—The Committee recognizes that the men and women of the 

National Guard and Reserve components need greater access to 

care if they are to maintain a high state of medical readiness to 

support regularly occurring deployments. It also recognizes that the 

suicide rate in the reserve components is consistently higher than 

the suicide rate for both the active duty military and the civilian 

population. Therefore, the Committee encourages the Department 

to better ensure that periodic health assessments are followed by 

medical treatment to address any behavioral or mental health conditions that could impact a servicemember’s ability to deploy, even 

if such care falls outside of the pre-deployment window. This practice would allow for a more medically ready, deployable force and 

would expand access to behavioral and mental healthcare for reserve component servicemembers. 

Cell-Based Flu Vaccine Research.—Given the negative impacts on 

servicemember health and military readiness posed by regular seasonal influenza, the Committee is concerned by a potential pandemic and the Department’s capacity and preparedness to address 

it. The Committee notes that the current flu vaccine may only be 

60 percent effective, with some estimates placing this year’s vaccine at 10 percent effective, and believes that the current, antiquated egg-based vaccine production process may contribute to that 

inefficacy. Therefore, the Committee encourages the Department to 

emphasize cell-based influenza vaccine research as part of its infectious diseases research. 

Armed Forces Institute of Regenerative Medicine.—The Armed 

Forces Institute of Regenerative Medicine [AFIRM] is a multi-institutional, interdisciplinary network of universities, military laboratories and investigators that is designed to promote a seamless integration of development, from basic science research through 

translational and clinical research, as the best means of bringing 

regenerative medicine therapies to practice. It is dedicated to repairing battlefield injuries through the use of regenerative medicine technology and has supported several clinical trials and treated hundreds of patients with novel therapeutic strategies in wound 

repair and tissue replacement. The Committee understands that 

fiscal year 2019 is the final year of funding for AFIRM II and 

strongly encourages the Department to build upon the successes of 

both AFIRM I and II by renewing the program for another five 

year period of performance beginning in the fiscal year 2020 budget 

request.

OVERVIEW

COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION

The Committee recommends $67,913,976,000 of additional appropriations for Overseas Contingency Operations in fiscal year 2019. 

This funding will ensure that resources, equipment, and supplies 

are available for our servicemembers without interruption, and will 

enable the Department to avoid absorbing operational costs from 

within baseline programs that are critical to future readiness and 

home-station activities. 

REPORTING REQUIREMENTS

The Secretary of Defense is directed to submit reports, on a quarterly basis, to the congressional defense committees not later than 

30 days after the last day of each quarter of the fiscal year that 

detail commitment, obligation, and expenditure data by sub-activity group for the Afghanistan Security Forces Fund and the 

Counter-the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria Fund. 

JOINT IMPROVISED-THREAT DEFEAT ORGANIZATION

The fiscal year 2019 President’s budget request includes 

$704,701,000 for the Joint Improvised-Threat Defeat Organization 
227 

[JIDO] in the appropriations accounts for Operation and Maintenance, Defense-Wide; Procurement, Defense-Wide; and Research, 

Development, Test and Evaluation, Defense-Wide, reflecting the 

transition of the activities, functions, and resources of the Joint Improvised-Threat Defeat Agency to the JIDO under the authority, direction and control of the Defense Threat Reduction Agency, as previously directed by Congress. The Committee commends the Under 

Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) for requesting appropriations 

for the JIDO in appropriations accounts instead of the previously 

utilized Joint Improvised-Threat Defeat Fund [JITDF] and its predecessor fund, the Joint Improvised-Explosives Devices Defeat Fund 

[JIEDDF]. 

The Committee notes that unobligated and unexpended funds remaining in the JIEDDF and the JITDF will continue to execute, 

therefore precluding the termination of these Funds at this time. 

The Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) is directed to provide 

to the congressional defense committees, with submission of the fiscal year 2020 President’s budget request, a plan to close out the 

JITDF and JIEDDF in the near-term. 

MILITARY PERSONNEL 

The Committee recommends a total of $4,660,661,000 for pay, allowances, and other personnel costs for Active, Reserve, and Guard 

troops activated for duty in Afghanistan and other contingency operations. This recommendation includes funding for subsistence, 

permanent change of station travel, and special pays including imminent danger pay, family separation allowance, and hardship 

duty pay.

Pakistan Reimbursements.—In January 2018, President Trump 

announced that the United States would withhold most security 
238 

aid from the government of Pakistan. The Committee understands 

that the Department of Defense continues to adjudicate the extent 

to which this policy applies to reimbursements for Pakistan’s 

counterterrorism activities using Operation and Maintenance Defense-wide, Coalition Support Funds [CSF]. In addition, S. 2987 the 

National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019, proposes 

elimination of CSF and funding Pakistan’s counterterrorism support activities using border security support authorities. While discussions in the Department and in Congress about the appropriate 

path forward continue, fiscal year 2017 and 2018 CSF for Pakistan 

remain unobligated. Therefore, the Committee recommends a rescission of $800,000,000 of fiscal year 2018 two-year CSF funds. 

Should a decision be made that Pakistan has taken necessary decisive action to counter terrorist threats required for a resumption of 

CSF reimbursements, the Department may use CSF funds requested for fiscal year 2019 to make such payments, consistent 

with the authorities in the National Defense Authorization Act for 

Fiscal Year 2019. 

Civilian Casualties Resulting from U.S. Military Operations.— 

The Committee supports the designation of a senior official responsible for developing, coordinating, and overseeing compliance with 

the policies of the Department of Defense related to civilian casualties resulting from U.S. military operations, as required by the 

John S. McCain National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 

2019, as passed by the Senate. The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to 

consult with the Committee not later than 90 days after the enactment of this act regarding coordination across the Department and 

among the Global Combatant Commands on the development and 

application of policies related to civilian casualties, including to ensure that the necessary personnel and resources are available on 

the Joint Staff to advise the Chairman on strategy and planning 

regarding compliance with such policies. 

Train, Advise, Assist, and Accompany Activities.—The Committee 

is concerned about issues identified in the Army Regulation 15–6 

Investigation, October 4, 2017 Enemy Contact Event in Tongo 

Tongo, Niger, in particular systemic issues with train, advise, assist, and accompany activities that fail to comply with well-established parameters and guidance. The Committee agrees with the 

report’s findings that the Department should review these activities and the training provided to U.S. forces engaged in them, to 

ensure that they, and their partner forces, fully understand the advise and assist role and its limitations. In order to more fully understand the extent of these issues, the Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to report to the congressional defense committees 

on its world-wide counter-terrorism train, advise, assist, and accompany activities and the steps taken to implement the 15–6 Investigation’s recommendations related to these missions.

Afghanistan Security Forces Fund Reprogramming and Budget 

Submission Requirements.—The Committee appreciates the efforts 

of the Department of Defense to comply with prior year direction 

to provide detailed execution information concurrent with the budget request and Financial Activity Plan [FAP] submissions for the 

Afghanistan Security Forces Fund [ASFF] appropriation. However, 

the Department remains unable to provide an accurate accounting 

of current and prior year spending at the budget justification request line level. Without such an accounting, the Committee is unable to conduct sufficient budget analysis to determine appropriate 

funding levels for fiscal year 2019. Therefore, the Committee recommends maintaining the fiscal year 2018 enacted budget level of 

$4,666,815,000, a reduction of $532,635,000 from the fiscal year 

2019 request. 

Moreover, the Committee is concerned that the budget flexibility 

allowed within the ASFF appropriation in the past has led to a 

lack of budget discipline that challenges effective congressional and 

executive branch oversight and risks wasteful spending. Therefore, 

the Committee directs that, for the ASFF appropriation, the Secretary of Defense comply with reprogramming procedures required 

elsewhere in this report for the service and defense wide appropriations. 

—The Secretary of Defense shall submit the Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414) for ASFF for fiscal year 2019, not later 

than 60 days after the enactment of this act. The Secretary of 

Defense is prohibited from executing any reprogramming or 

transfer of funds for any purpose other than originally appropriated until the aforementioned report is submitted to the 

House and Senate Appropriations Committees. 

—Items for which additional funds have been recommended or 

items for which funding is specifically reduced as shown in the 

tables detailing Committee recommended adjustments or in 

paragraphs using the phrase ‘‘only for’’ or ‘‘only to’’ are congressional special interest items for the purpose of the Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414). Each of these items must be 

carried on the DD Form 1414 at the stated amount, as specifically addressed elsewhere in this report. 

—The Secretary of Defense shall use prior approval reprogram- ming procedures to transfer funds in excess of $20,000,000 between ASFF sub-activity groups. 

The Committee continues direction that the Secretary shall provide budget justification materials that include: the budget request 

amount, the appropriated amount, and the actual obligation 

amount by line item, for the prior 2 years. In addition, concurrent 

with the submission of each FAP, the Secretary of Defense shall 
243 

provide the congressional defense committees with line item detail 

of planned funding movements within each ASFF sub-activity 

group using line item titles from the appropriate year’s budget justification submission. Any line item that did not appear in the 

budget justification submission shall be delineated as a new line 

item in the line item detail accompanying the FAP.

PROCUREMENT 

The Committee recommends $12,574,963,000 for the procurement accounts. The Overseas Contingency Operations funding supports our forces engaged in Operation Enduring Freedom and other 

contingency operations. The Committee recommends funding to replace combat losses and equipment left behind in theater, augment 

and upgrade equipment for deploying units, sustain munitions and 

other war consumables, and reset the units returning home to an 

equipment-ready status. Funding adjustments have been made in 

instances where the requirement was poorly defined, funding was 

requested ahead of need or program execution has been delayed.
