Congress directed that an assessment be done of ASW shortfalls and capabilities supported by rigorous analysis and the establishment of priorities among ASW programs. The Navy agreed to perform such a quantitative analysis. This report reviews (1) DOD's 1997 ASW assessment and (2) the role and the funding influence of the Navy's new Antisubmarine Warfare Requirements Division. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-NSIAD-99-85/html/GAOREPORTS-NSIAD-99-85.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-NSIAD-99-85/pdf/GAOREPORTS-NSIAD-99-85.pdf GAO/NSIAD-99-85 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-NSIAD-99-85 Letter Report GAO/NSIAD-99-85; Defense Acquisitions: Evaluation of Navy's Anti-Submarine; Antisubmarine warfare Naval warfare Defense capabilities Military budgets Submarines Weapons research and development DOD Future Years Defense Program Navy Ship Antisubmarine Warfare Readiness/Effectiveness Measuring Program Navy Surface Antisubmarine Warfare Program Navy Compact Low Frequency Active Development Program Navy Antisubmarine Warfare Assessment Navy Lightweight Hybrid Torpedo Development Program Navy Advanced Deployable System Development Program
