None of the funds authorized to be appropriated by this Act or otherwise made available may be obligated or expended to develop, procure, or operate the autonomy baseline manager or the common control system of the Navy for a proposed unmanned surface vessel program unless, with respect to that program— the Secretary of the Navy submits to the congressional defense committees— the original baseline schedule of key capability deliverables and the current schedule as of the date of submission; the original cost estimate and the current cost estimate as of the date of submission, including the total funding received for the program; all reports of test and experimentation events, including a comparison of performance to alternative industry capabilities; the unaltered assessment of the Defense Innovation Unit on a market assessment of industry capabilities compared to the capabilities of the autonomy baseline manager and the common control system of the Navy; and an assessment that the program is delivering new capabilities at a pace and quality that meets or exceeds industry capabilities; and the Chief of Naval Operations validates to the congressional defense committees that the program meets operational user needs of the Navy.
