7 The Joint Interagency Field Experimentation (JIFX) program at the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS), held quarterly, recently added another warfighting domain to its range of venues used to conduct field experiments – water.
Situated just across the street from NPS’s main campus, the Sea Land Air Military Research Initiative (SLAMR) facility houses a series of open-air water treatment tanks that were recently renovated and now serve as SLAMR’s aquatic environment laboratory. The addition of these water tanks to the JIFX portfolio of regional facilities, test ranges, and experiment venues, including controlled air and ground space at California National Guard base Camp Roberts in South Monterey County, allowed JIFX to offer opportunities for not just air, land or cyberspace experiments, but for experiments with sea-based surface and subsurface technologies as well.
