Mr. Messere likened the Underwater Systems Center to a $500-million industrial re- search and development center, providing a full spectrum of services from warfare studies, which predict future needs, to system development and intro- duction into fleet units of those January 15, 1983 systems following up with solu- tions to current problems within a short time-frame. Mr. Messere described combat systems on submarines, for which the center is responsible, begin- ning with a past history of the development of combat systems. He pointed out the importance of the acquisition process, due to the 20 or more years required to introduce new systems to the fleet. This time-frame requires an excellent analysis of the mis- sion requirements for the future, as well as a firm understanding of technological trends and their effect on long-range problem sit- uations. In a discussion of current sys- tems, Mr. Messere highlighted the differences between the So- viet and U.S. naval forces. These differences require each unit to be as capable as possible, he noted, a requirement which ne- cessitates large data management systems with many independent processing units to speed compu- tations with better display man- agement. Feeding these informa- tion management systems will be better broad band arrays and other sensors. Such systems will cause changes, and Mr. Messere foresees the future submarine as an underwater cruiser with much longer-range weapons and re- mote targeting capabilities.
