The goal of the Naval Cybernetics program is to develop technologies and discover methods for creating small, numerous, consumable unmanned systems for our Naval forces, providing warfighters with artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled autonomous tools to enhance their abilities to fight the-fights-tonight as well as the-fights-to-come.

The Strategic Competition Program invests in basic and applied research to further our understanding of strategic competition, develop capabilities to counter grey zone actions, and identify opportunities to enhance cooperation with allies and partners, particularly in terms of access, basing, and overflight.

The Office of Naval Research's Physical Oceanography program is interested in receiving research planning letters on topics related to our primary focus areas of mesoscale and sub-mesoscale ocean processes, air-sea interaction, new ocean observing technologies and the education of the next generation of scientists.

TechSolutions has just celebrated its 1000th request for a technology-driven solution identified by the men and women who need it most – Sailors and Marines on the frontlines of the mission. “Necessity is the mother of invention, which is why it’s so important to deliver what our warfighters need when they need it – not five to ten years later, but as soon as possible,” said Capt. Andy Berner, commanding officer of the Office of Naval Research (ONR) Global, which oversees TechSolutions. “When a viable request comes in, TechSolutions works to put that technology into the hands of our Sailors and Marines within months while other procurement requests are still working their way through red tape.” TechSolutions received its 1000th request on Jan. 19. Jason Payne, director of TechSolutions, said they are looking forward to celebrating the next milestone, number 1500, which he hopes comes in sooner than the first 500 requests since warfighters can now contact TechSolutions directly by phone, email, Teams, or through the ONR mobile app.

The Office of Naval Research's Propulsor Hydrodynamics and Hydroacoustics program explores science and technology related to the physics of fluid flow around propulsors to improve the Navy’s propulsor design capability for improved stealth, efficiency and mobility.

The goal of the Office of Naval Research's Undersea Signal Processing program is to develop signal processing algorithms that improve the Navy's ability to detect, identify and locate submarines in shallow and deep ocean environments.

U.S. Navy Task Force Ocean is a cooperative effort to advance ocean science in the U.S.

The goal of the Office of Naval Research's Anti-Submarine Warfare program is to develop system components, integrated systems, companion tactical decision aids, and associated training capabilities to improve the Navy’s ability to conduct anti-submarine warfare.

The Marine Mammals and Biology (MMB) program supports basic and applied research and technology development related to understanding the effects of sound on marine mammals, including physiological, behavioral, ecological and population-level effects.

The Office of Naval Research's Ocean Acoustics program supports basic research that addresses fundamental understandings of the physics relating to underwater sound.
