United StatesDescription
The Carderock Division consists of
approximately 3,800 scientists, engineers and support personnel
working in more than 40 disciplines ranging from fundamental
science to applied/in-service engineering. We are the Navy's
experts for maritime technology. Headquartered in West Bethesda,
Md., the Division houses world-class facilities and laboratories. A
major operating site in Philadelphia is recognized as the center
for naval machinery. The Division also conducts research and
development at several remote sites across the country. As a major
component of the Naval Sea Systems Command the Carderock Division
provides cradle-to-grave support for its technical products over an
enormous range of scientific areas related to surface and undersea
platforms. The Division addresses the full spectrum of applied
maritime science and technology, from the theoretical and
conceptual beginnings, through design and acquisition, to
implementation and follow-on engineering. This includes all
technical aspects of improving the performance of ships,
submarines, military water craft, and unmanned vehicles, as well as
research for military logistics systems. In addition, the Division
is uniquely chartered by Congress to support America's maritime
industry.
