LIMITATIONS ON SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT AND DEMONSTRATION OF MANNED GROUND VEHICLES UNDER ARMORED SYSTEMS MODERNIZATION PROGRAM.

SEC. 213. LIMITATIONS ON SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT AND DEMONSTRATION OF MANNED GROUND VEHICLES UNDER ARMORED SYSTEMS MODERNIZATION PROGRAM.(a) Limitations.—Of the amounts appropriated or otherwise made available pursuant to the authorization of appropriations in section 201 for the Armored Systems Modernization program, not more than 70 percent may be obligated for systems development and demonstration of manned ground vehicle variants under that program until each of the following occurs:(1) The Secretary of Defense certifies to the congressional defense committees that the threshold requirements for manned ground vehicle variants with respect to lethality and survivability have been met and demonstrated, in accordance with applicable regulations, in a relevant environment to be at least equal to the lethality and survivability of the manned ground vehicles to be replaced by those variants.(2) The Secretary of Defense submits to the congressional defense committees the results of an independent analysis carried out with respect to the transportability requirement for the manned ground vehicle variants under the Future Combat Systems program for the purpose of determining whether—(A) the requirement can be supported by the future-years defense plan and the projected extended planning 119 STAT. 3168 period inter-theater and intra-theater airlift force structure budget;(B) the requirement is justified by any likely deployment scenario envisioned by current operational plans; and(C) the projected unit procurement cost warrants the investment required to deploy those variants.(3) The Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics submits to the congressional defense committees the results of an independent cost estimate, prepared by the cost analysis improvement group of the Office of the Secretary of Defense, with respect to the Future Combat Systems program.(4) The Secretary of the Army submits to the congressional defense committees a report containing—(A) the organizational design, quantities, and fielding plan for each of the current force Brigade Combat Teams and the Future Combat Systems Brigade Combat Teams; and(B) the Future Combat Systems Manned Ground Vehicle research, development, test, and evaluation and procurement plan and budgets through the future-years defense plan, including unit procurement cost for each Future Combat Systems Manned Ground Vehicle variant in constant and current-year dollars.(5) The Secretary of Defense submits to the congressional defense committees a report describing and evaluating the requirements and budgets for the technology insertion program for integrating Future Combat Systems capabilities into current force programs through the future-years defense plan for the purpose of determining—(A) the balance in programs and resources between the Future Combat Systems Brigade Combat Teams and the current force Brigade Combat Teams;(B) the feasibility of accelerating technology insertion into the current force Brigade Combat Teams;(C) the level of research, development, test, and evaluation and procurement funding to support planned technology insertions into the current force Brigade Combat Teams through the future-years defense plan; and(D) the capabilities of a current force Brigade Combat Team equipped with planned technology insertions in 2010, in comparison to a Future Combat Systems Manned Ground Vehicle Brigade Combat Team in 2014.(b) Exception for Non-Line-of-Sight Cannon System.—This section does not apply with respect to the obligation of funds for systems development and demonstration of the non-line-of-sight cannon system.
