    DAHLGREN, Va. (Jan. 18, 2017) - A Chief Petty Officer asks Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) Adm. John Richardson a question during an all-hands call at Naval Support Facility (NSF) Dahlgren as more than 900 Navy civilian and military personnel watch in person or over live stream video. CNO toured NSF Dahlgren and its tenant commands - Aegis Training and Readiness Center, Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD), and the Joint Warfare Analysis Center. NSWCDD scientists and engineers briefed CNO on the latest developments impacting the Navy's battle management system and directed energy programs, including the electromagnetic railgun, hypervelocity projectiles, and laser weapons. CNO was also briefed on USS Secure - a multi-enclave test environment to enable the Navy's development, evaluation, and testing of cybersecurity concepts and technologies to defend mission critical systems at sea and ashore.
