NSWC Dahlgren, Va. (Aug. 19, 2004) - Naval reservists, scientists and engineers work in the Integrated Command Environment (ICE) Human Performance laboratory located at NSWC Dahlgren, Va. The ICE lab focuses on the Navy's evolving human performance and human systems integration (HSI) testing
A Naval Surface Warfare Center is part of the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) operated by the United States Navy. NAVSEA Warfare Centers supply the technical operations, people, technology, engineering services and products needed to equip and support the Fleet and meet the warfighter's needs. The Warfare Centers are the Navy's principal Research, Development, Test and Evaluation (RDT&E) assessment activity for surface ship and submarine systems and subsystems. Additionally, the Warfare Centers provide depot maintenance and In-Service Engineering support to ensure that the systems fielded today perform consistently and reliably in the future.
NSWC consists of 10 sites or locations:
Carderock Division of the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Maryland
Naval Surface Warfare Center Crane Division, Indiana
Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division, Virginia
- Naval Surface Warfare Center Dam Neck, Virginia
Indian Head Naval Surface Warfare Center, Maryland
Explosive Ordnance Disposal Technology Division, Indian Head, Maryland
Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City, Florida
- Philadelphia Division of the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Pennsylvania
Naval Surface Warfare Center Port Hueneme, California
Naval Surface Warfare Center Corona, California
The largest of the Navy's five systems commands, NAVSEA engineers build and support America's Fleet of ships and combat systems. Accounting for nearly one-fifth of the Navy's budget, NAVSEA manages more than 150 acquisition programs and has more than 53,000 civilian and military employees at 33 activities in 16 states.
