One of the critical aspects in the design and sustainment of new and replacement Navy combat systems is the development of software to run the systems in a manner that maximizes their benefit to national security. This research examines the Navy's acquisition of anti-submarine warfare sonar and fire control software to determine if software reuse has been effective in lowering costs. The potential for cost avoidance exists due to the commonality of the anti-submarine warfare mission across the surface, air, surveillance, and submarine communities. The three categories of costs chosen for analysis are maintenance; training; and research, development, test, and evaluation (RDT&E). The analysis focuses on the identification of trends associated with each of the costs for selected systems and programs. Identifying trends in funding could provide evidence of the cost-effectiveness of software reuse efforts within and across the surface, air, surveillance, and submarine communities.
