Based in Washington, D.C., the Naval Surface Warfare Center operates as part of the Naval Sea Systems Command to sustain U.S. seapower through technical solutions. It serves as a trusted partner in identifying and delivering innovative, cost-effective approaches to meet warfighters' needs. The organization relies on a sizable workforce of scientists, engineers, researchers and technicians spread across ten divisions nationwide, addressing surface and undersea requirements.

Across its divisions, NSWC conducts full-spectrum activities—from research and development to testing, evaluation, engineering and fleet support—for offensive and defensive systems tied to surface and undersea warfare, spanning the life cycle of ships and submarines. It draws on a broad range of disciplines to close capability gaps and bring improved capabilities to Sailors more quickly. Collaboration with Navy research and development establishments, industry, academia and other government partners is a core aspect of its work, conducted in laboratories, dedicated facilities, or at sea aboard Navy surface ships and submarines.
