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.
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.
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 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 cost-effectiveness. 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 Directed 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 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 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, Multi-Mission 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

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, 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 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.
TITLE I

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 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 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:
Operational forces
Field logistics

modernization
Air Force:
Primary combat forces
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 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 sub-activity 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.
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.
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 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 long-term 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 Island 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.
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 public 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 non-DOD agencies. This restriction forces the Navy to charge
the U.S. Coast Guard fully burdened rates for drydocking
services at Navy shipyards rather than reimbursable rates.
Therefore, the Committee directs that funds appropriated under
Operation and Maintenance, Navy may be used to pay overhead
costs incurred by a Naval Shipyard when drydocking U.S. Coast
Guard ships.
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 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.

Overestimation
of civilian
FTE
------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 probability 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 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 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 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 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.
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 conversions. 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-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
modification 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
Program. 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 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 includes $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 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 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 advancements 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 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 protection, 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 management 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 long-term 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] 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 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 committees 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 Anti-
Ship 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 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
President'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, 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-the-art
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 non-flammable electrolytes,
to reduce the risk of thermal runaway and 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 anti-
ship 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, 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 certification 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 non-Federal 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
President'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 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
Next-Generation 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 Next-Gen 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
recommends 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 Committee 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 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.

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.--The Committee recommends full funding
for the Defense Logistics Agency's request of 2.5 million cases
of 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 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, 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.
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 [Med-COI], 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 Affairs, 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,
non-invasive 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,
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 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-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 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 post-traumatic 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 applicable; 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.

The Committee recommends an appropriation of
$67,913,976,000 for operations related to Overseas Contingency

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 [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
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
reprogramming 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 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.
