Navy S&T board meeting to discuss completed studies of EW and ship maintenance

The Navy's Science and Technology Board will meet on Dec. 3 to discuss two completed studies of electronic warfare for terminal defense and ship maintenance, according to a Wednesday Federal Register notice.

During the meeting, which will be held virtually and open to the public, the board will vote to determine whether to deliver these two studies to Navy Secretary Carlos Del Toro, the notice states.

Formed in September 2023, the S&T board is tasked with providing independent advice to the Navy on a range of topics including emerging technologies, acquisition practices, manufacturing, logistics, medicine and business management.

The board’s first focal area was investigating ways for the Navy and Marine Corps to rapidly integrate disruptive technologies. It provided classified recommendations on this subject to service leaders in April.

More recently, the board convened in September to review recommendations for innovation, ship maintenance, additive manufacturing and electronic warfare.
