SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
(a) Short Title.--This Act may be cited as the ``Carl Levin and
Howard P. `Buck' McKeon National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal
Year 2015''.
(b) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1)(A) Senator Carl Levin of Michigan was elected a member
of the United States Senate on November 7, 1978, for a full term
beginning January 3, 1979. He has served continuously in the
Senate since that date, and was appointed as a member of the
Committee on Armed Services in January 1979. He has served on
the Committee on Armed Services since that date, a period of
nearly 36 years.
(B) A graduate of Detroit Central High School, Senator Levin
went on to Swarthmore College, and graduated from Harvard Law
School in 1959, gaining admittance to the Michigan bar. He
served his State as assistant attorney general and general
counsel of the Michigan Civil Rights Commission from 1964-1967,
and later served his hometown of Detroit as a member of the
Detroit City Council from 1969-1973, and as the council's
president from 1974-1977.
(C) Senator Levin first served as chairman of the Committee
on Armed Services of the United States Senate for a period of
the 107th Congress, and has remained chairman since the 110th
Congress began in 2007. He has exercised extraordinary
leadership as either the chairman or ranking minority member of
the committee since the start of the 105th Congress in 1997.
(D) Each year, for the past 52 years, the Committee on Armed
Services has reliably passed an annual defense authorization
act, and this will be the 36th that Senator Levin has had a role
in. In his capacity as member, ranking member, and chairman, he
has been an advocate for a strong national defense, and has made
lasting contributions to the security of our Nation.
(E) It is altogether fitting and proper that this Act, the
last annual authorization act for the national defense that
Senator Levin manages in and for the United States Senate
[[Page 128 STAT. 3293]]
as chairman of the Committee on Armed Services, be named in his
honor, as provided in subsection (a).
(2)(A) Representative Howard P. ``Buck'' McKeon was elected
to the House of Representatives in 1992 to represent
California's 25th Congressional District.
(B) Chairman McKeon was born in Los Angeles and grew up in
Tujunga CA. He served a two and a half year mission for the
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and attended Brigham
Young University. Prior to his election to Congress, he was a
small business owner, and served both on the William S. Hart
Union High School District Board of Trustees and as the first
mayor of the City of Santa Clarita.
(C) In the 111th Congress, Chairman McKeon was selected by
his peers as the Ranking Member of the House Armed Services
Committee and has served as Chairman since in the 112th and
113th Congresses. Previously Chairman McKeon had served as the
Chairman of the House Committee on Education and the Workforce.
(D) Chairman McKeon is a champion of a strong national
defense, the men and women of America's Armed Forces and their
families, and returning fiscal discipline to the Department of
Defense. His priority has been to ensure our troops deployed
around the world have the equipment, resources, authorities,
training and time they need to successfully complete their
missions and return home.
(E) For 52 consecutive years, the House Armed Services
Committee, in a bipartisan, bicameral tradition, has passed and
enacted an annual defense authorization act. Chairman McKeon had
said it has been the privilege of his life to shepherd that
tradition under his tenure.
(F) It is therefore fitting this Act, the last national
defense authorization act of his tenure, be named in Chairman
McKeon's honor, as provided in subsection (a).
(c) References.--Any reference in this or any other Act to the
``National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015'' shall be
deemed to refer to the ``Carl Levin and Howard P. `Buck' McKeon National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015''.

excess of the critical cost growth threshold pursuant to section

Secretary anticipates such contract (or a contract for advance
procurement entered into consistent with the authorization for
such contract) will be awarded.

acquired under such contract have been delivered at or within
the most current estimates of the program acquisition unit cost
or procurement unit cost for such system to determine that
current estimates of such unit costs are realistic.

established by law (including a condition as to cost savings to be
achieved under the multiyear contract in comparison to specified other
contracts) and if it appears (after negotiations with contractors) that
such savings cannot be achieved, but that substantial savings could
nevertheless be achieved through the use of a multiyear contract rather
than specified other contracts, the President may submit to Congress a
request for relief from the specified cost savings that must be achieved
through multiyear contracting for that program. Any such request by the
President shall include details about the request for a multiyear
contract, including details about the negotiated contract terms and
conditions.

property only for the procurement of those long-lead items necessary in
order to meet a planned delivery schedule for complete major end items
that are programmed under the contract to be acquired with funds
appropriated for a subsequent fiscal year (including an economic order
quantity of such long-lead items when authorized by law).

this section is in the best interest of the Department

of Defense and the Secretary provides the basis for such determination
with the certification.

organized crime under paragraph (1) to this section, the term `illegal
means', as it appears in such definition, includes the trafficking of
money, human trafficking, illicit financial flows, illegal trade in
natural resources and wildlife, trade in illegal drugs and weapons, and

SEC. 1015. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING SECURITY IN THE WESTERN
HEMISPHERE.
(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1) The stability and security of the Western Hemisphere has
a direct impact on the security interests of the United States.
(2) Over the past decade, there has been a marked increase
in violence and instability in the region as a result of weak
governance and increasingly capable transnational criminal
organizations. These criminal organizations operate global,
multi-billion dollar networks that traffic narcotics, humans,
weapons, and bulk cash.
(3) Conflict between the various transnational criminal
organizations for smuggling routes and territory has resulted in
skyrocketing violence. According to the United Nations Office on
Drugs and Crime, Honduras has the highest murder rate in the
world with 90 murders per 100,000 people.
(4) United States Northern Command and United States
Southern Command are the lead combatant commands for Department
of Defense efforts to combat illicit trafficking in the Western
Hemisphere.
(5) To combat these destabilizing threats, through a variety
of authorities, the Department of Defense advises, trains,
educates, and equips vetted troops in the region to enhance
their military and police forces, with an emphasis on human
rights and the rule of law.
(6) As a result of decades of instability and violence, tens
of thousands of unaccompanied alien children and their families
have fled to the border between the United States and Mexico. In
fiscal year 2014, approximately 66,000 such children were
apprehended crossing into the United States from Mexico.
[[Page 128 STAT. 3486]]
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) the Department of Defense should continue its efforts to
combat transnational criminal organizations in the Western
Hemisphere;
(2) the Department of Defense should increase its maritime,
aerial and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance
capabilities in the region to more effectively support efforts
to reduce illicit trafficking into the United States; and
(3) enhancing the capacity of partner nations in the region
to combat the threat posed by transnational criminal
organizations should be a cornerstone of the Department of
Defense's strategy in the region.

SEC. 1024. SENSE OF CONGRESS RECOGNIZING THE ANNIVERSARY OF THE
SINKING OF U.S.S. THRESHER.
(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1) U.S.S. Thresher was first launched at Portsmouth Naval
Shipyard on July 9, 1960.
(2) U.S.S. Thresher departed Portsmouth Naval Shipyard for
her final voyage on April 9, 1963, with a crew of 16 officers,
96 sailors, and 17 civilians.
(3) The mix of that crew reflects the unity of the naval
submarine service, military and civilian, in the protection of
the United States.
(4) At approximately 7:47 a.m. on April 10, 1963, while in
communication with the surface ship U.S.S. Skylark, and
approximately 220 miles off the coast of New England, U.S.S.
Thresher began her final descent.
[[Page 128 STAT. 3488]]
(5) U.S.S. Thresher was declared lost with all hands on
April 10, 1963.
(6) In response to the loss of U.S.S. Thresher, the United
States Navy instituted new regulations to ensure the health of
the submariners and the safety of the submarines of the United
States.
(7) Those regulations led to the establishment of the
Submarine Safety and Quality Assurance program (SUBSAFE), now
one of the most comprehensive military safety programs in the
world.
(8) SUBSAFE has kept the submariners of the United States
safe at sea ever since as the strongest, safest submarine force
in history.
(9) Since the establishment of SUBSAFE, no SUBSAFE-certified
submarine has been lost at sea, which is a legacy owed to the
brave individuals who perished aboard U.S.S. Thresher.
(10) From the loss of U.S.S. Thresher, there arose in the
institutions of higher education in the United States the ocean
engineering curricula that enables the preeminence of the United
States in submarine warfare.
(11) The crew of U.S.S. Thresher demonstrated the ``last
full measure of devotion'' in service to the United States, and
this devotion characterizes the sacrifices of all submariners,
past and present.
(b) Sense of Congress.--Congress--
(1) recognizes the 51st anniversary of the sinking of U.S.S.
Thresher;
(2) remembers with profound sorrow the loss of U.S.S.
Thresher and her gallant crew of sailors and civilians on April
10, 1963; and
(3) expresses its deepest gratitude to all submariners on
``eternal patrol'', who are forever bound together by dedicated
and honorable service to the United States of America.

SEC. 1653. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON DETERRENCE AND DEFENSE POSTURE OF
THE NORTH ATLANTIC TREATY ORGANIZATION.
It is the sense of Congress that the United States reaffirms and
remains committed to the policies enumerated by the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization in the Deterrence and Defense Posture Review, dated
May 20, 2012, and the Wales Summit Declaration of September 2014,
including the following statements:
(1) As stated in the Deterrence and Defense Posture Review:
(A) ``The greatest responsibility of the Alliance is
to protect and defend our territory and our populations
against attack, as set out in Article 5 of the
Washington Treaty. The Alliance does not consider any
country to be its adversary. However, no one should
doubt NATO's resolve if the security of any of its
members were to be threatened. NATO will ensure that it
maintains the full range of capabilities necessary to
deter and defend against any threat to the safety and
security of our populations, wherever it should arise.
Allies' goal is to bolster deterrence as a core element
of our collective defense and contribute to the
indivisible security of the Alliance.''.
(B) ``Nuclear weapons are a core component of NATO's
overall capabilities for deterrence and defense
alongside conventional and missile defense forces. The
review has shown that the Alliance's nuclear force
posture currently meets the criteria for an effective
deterrence and defense posture.''.
(C) ``The circumstances in which any use of nuclear
weapons might have to be contemplated are extremely
remote. As long as nuclear weapons exist, NATO will
remain a nuclear alliance. The supreme guarantee of the
security of the Allies is provided by the strategic
nuclear forces of the Alliance, particularly those of
the United States; the independent strategic forces of
the United Kingdom and France, which have a deterrent
role of their own, contribute to the overall deterrence
and security of the Allies.''.
[[Page 128 STAT. 3656]]
(D) ``NATO must have the full range of capabilities
necessary to deter and defend against threats to the
safety of its populations and the security of its
territory, which is the Alliance's greatest
responsibility.''.
(E) ``NATO is committed to maintaining an
appropriate mix of nuclear, conventional, and missile
defense capabilities for deterrence and defense to
fulfill its commitments as set out in the Strategic
Concept. These capabilities, underpinned by NATO's
Integrated Command Structure, offer the strongest
guarantee of the Alliance's security and will ensure
that it is able to respond to a variety of challenges
and unpredictable contingencies in a highly complex and
evolving international security environment.''.
(2) As stated in the Wales Summit Declaration:
(A) ``Deterrence, based on an appropriate mix of
nuclear, conventional, and missile defence capabilities,
remains a core element of our overall strategy.''.
(B) ``Arms control, disarmament, and non-
proliferation continue to play an important role in the
achievement of the Alliance's security objectives. Both
the success and failure of these efforts can have a
direct impact on the threat environment of NATO. In this
context, it is of paramount importance that disarmament
and non-proliferation commitments under existing
treaties are honoured, including the Intermediate-Range
Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty, which is a crucial element
of Euro-Atlantic security. In that regard, Allies call
on Russia to preserve the viability of the INF Treaty
through ensuring full and verifiable compliance.''.

SEC. 1662. <<NOTE: 10 USC 2431 note.>> TESTING AND ASSESSMENT OF
MISSILE DEFENSE SYSTEMS PRIOR TO
PRODUCTION AND DEPLOYMENT.
(a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) it is a high priority of the United States that the
ballistic missile defense system should work in an operationally
effective and cost-effective manner;
(2) prior to making final production decisions for such
systems, and prior to the operational deployment of such
systems, the United States should conduct operationally
realistic intercept flight testing that should create
sufficiently challenging operational conditions to establish
confidence that such systems will work in an operationally
effective and cost-effective manner when needed; and
(3) in order to achieve these objectives, and to avoid post-
production and post-deployment problems, it is essential for the
Department of Defense to follow a ``fly before you buy''
approach to adequately test and assess the elements of the
ballistic missile defense system before final production
decisions or operational deployment.
(b) Successful Testing Required Prior to Final Production or
Operational Deployment.--The Secretary of Defense may not make a final
production decision for, or operationally deploy, a covered system
unless--
(1) the Secretary ensures that--
(A) sufficient and operationally realistic testing
of the covered system is conducted to assess the
performance of the covered system in order to inform a
final production decision or an operational deployment
decision; and
(B) the results of such testing have demonstrated a
high probability that the covered system--
(i) will work in an operationally effective
manner; and
(ii) has the ability to accomplish the
intended mission of the covered system;
(2) the Director of Operational Test and Evaluation has
carried out subsection (c) with respect to such covered system;
and
(3) the Commander of the United States Strategic Command has
carried out subsection (d) with respect to such covered system.
(c) Assessment by Director of Operational Test and Evaluation.--The
Director of Operational Test and Evaluation shall--
(1) provide to the Secretary the assessment of the Director,
based on the available test data, of the sufficiency, adequacy,
and results of the testing of each covered system, including an
assessment of whether the covered system will be sufficiently
effective, suitable, and survivable when needed; and
(2) submit to the congressional defense committees a written
summary of such assessment.
[[Page 128 STAT. 3658]]
(d) Assessment by Commander of United States Strategic Command.--The
Commander of the United States Strategic Command shall--
(1) provide to the Secretary a military utility assessment
of the operational utility of each covered system; and
(2) not later than 30 days after providing such assessment
to the Secretary, submit to the congressional defense committees
a written summary of such assessment.
(e) Rule of Construction.--Nothing in this section shall be
construed to alter, modify, or otherwise affect a determination of the
Secretary with respect to the participation of the Missile Defense
Agency in the Joint Capabilities Integration Development System or the
acquisition reporting process under the Department of Defense Directive
5000 series.
(f) Covered System.--In this section, the term ``covered system''
means a new or substantially upgraded interceptor or weapon system of
the ballistic missile defense system, other than the re-designed exo-
atmospheric kill vehicle covered by the acquisition plan developed under
section 1663.
SEC. 1663. <<NOTE: 10 USC 2431 note.>> ACQUISITION PLAN FOR RE-
DESIGNED EXO-ATMOSPHERIC KILL VEHICLE.
(a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) the existing models of the exo-atmospheric kill vehicle
of the ground-based midcourse defense system are prototype
designs that were developed and deployed without using
traditional acquisition practices in order to provide an initial
defensive capability for an emerging ballistic missile threat;
(2) consequently, while the deployed models of the exo-
atmospheric kill vehicle have demonstrated an initial level of
capability against a limited threat, such models do not have the
degree of reliability, robustness, cost effectiveness, and
performance that are desirable;
(3) the exo-atmospheric kill vehicle for the ground-based
midcourse defense system needs to be re-designed to
substantially improve the performance and reliability of such
kill vehicles; and
(4) the Secretary of Defense should follow a robust and
rigorous acquisition plan for the design, development, and
testing of the re-designed exo-atmospheric kill vehicle.
(b) Acquisition Plan Required.--The Secretary of Defense shall
develop an acquisition plan for the re-design of the exo-atmospheric
kill vehicle of the ground-based midcourse defense system that includes
rigorous elements for system engineering, design, integration,
development, testing, and evaluation.
(c) Objectives.--The objectives of the acquisition plan under
subsection (b) shall be to ensure that the re-designed exo-atmospheric
kill vehicle is operationally effective, reliable, producible, cost
effective, maintainable, and testable.
(d) Approval of Acquisition Plan Required.--The acquisition plan
under subsection (b) shall be subject to approval by the Under Secretary
of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics.
(e) Testing Required.--Prior to operational deployment of the re-
designed exo-atmospheric kill vehicle, the Secretary shall ensure that
the re-designed kill vehicle has demonstrated, through successful,
operationally realistic flight testing--
[[Page 128 STAT. 3659]]
(1) a high probability of working in an operationally
effective manner; and
(2) the ability to accomplish the intended mission of the
re-designed kill vehicle, including against more complex
emerging ballistic missile threats.
(f) Report Required.--Not later than 60 days after the date on which
the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and
Logistics approves the acquisition plan under subsection (d), the
Director of the Missile Defense Agency shall submit to the congressional
defense committees a report describing the acquisition plan and the
manner in which the plan will meet the objectives described in
subsection (c).
SEC. 1664. STUDY ON TESTING PROGRAM OF GROUND-BASED MIDCOURSE
MISSILE DEFENSE SYSTEM.
(a) Study.-- Not later than 120 days after the date of the enactment
of this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall enter into a contract with a
federally funded research and development center to conduct a study on
the testing program of the ground-based midcourse missile defense
system.
(b) Elements.--The study under subsection (a) shall include the
following:
(1) An assessment of whether the testing program described
in subsection (a) has established, as of the date of the study,
that the ground-based midcourse missile defense system has a
high probability of performing reliably and effectively against
limited missile threats from North Korea and Iran under
realistic operational conditions, including an explanation of
the degree of confidence supporting such assessment.
(2) An assessment of whether the currently planned testing
program, if implemented, is sufficient to establish reasonable
confidence that the ground-based midcourse missile defense
system has a high probability of performing reliably and
effectively under realistic operational conditions against
current and plausible near- and medium-term limited ballistic
missile threats from North Korea and Iran.
(3) Any recommendations for improvements that could be made
to the testing program to--
(A) achieve reasonable confidence that the system
would be reliable and effective under realistic
operational conditions; or
(B) improve test and cost efficiencies.
(c) Report.--Not later than one year after entering into the
contract under subsection (a), the Secretary shall submit to the
congressional defense committees a report containing the study. The
report shall be submitted in unclassified form, but may include a
classified annex.
SEC. 1665. SENSE OF CONGRESS AND REPORT ON HOMELAND BALLISTIC
MISSILE DEFENSE.
(a) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) it is a national priority to defend the United States
homeland against the threat of limited ballistic missile attack
(whether accidental, unauthorized, or deliberate);
(2) although the currently deployed ground-based midcourse
defense system provides a level of protection of the entire
United States homeland, including the East Coast, against the
threat of limited ballistic missile attack from North
[[Page 128 STAT. 3660]]
Korea and Iran, this capability needs to be improved to meet
evolving ballistic missile threats;
(3) the initial step in this process of improvement is to
correct the problems that caused the flight test failures with
the current kill vehicles, and to improve the reliability of the
deployed ground-based interceptor fleet;
(4) as indicated by senior officials of the Department of
Defense, continued investments to enhance homeland defense
sensor and discrimination capabilities are essential to improve
the operational effectiveness and shot doctrine of the ground-
based midcourse defense system;
(5) given limitations with the currently deployed exo-
atmospheric kill vehicles, it is important to re-design the exo-
atmospheric kill vehicle using a rigorous acquisition approach,
including realistic testing, that can achieve a demonstrated
capability as soon as practicable using sound acquisition
principles and practices; and
(6) in order to stay ahead of evolving ballistic missile

SEC. 3503. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON THE ROLE OF DOMESTIC MARITIME
INDUSTRY IN NATIONAL SECURITY.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
(1) the United States domestic maritime industry carries
hundreds of million of tons of cargo annually, supports nearly
500,000 jobs, and provides nearly 100 billion in annual economic
output;
[[Page 128 STAT. 3905]]
(2) the Nation's military sealift capacity will benefit from
one of the fastest growing segments of the domestic trades, 14
domestic trade tankers that are on order to be constructed at
United States shipyards as of February 1, 2014;
(3) the domestic trades' vessel innovations that transformed
worldwide maritime commerce include the development of
containerships, self-unloading vessels, articulated tug-barges,
trailer barges, chemical parcel tankers, railroad-on-barge
carfloats, and river flotilla towing systems;
(4) the national security benefits of the domestic maritime
industry are unquestioned as the Department of Defense depends
on United States domestic trades' fleet of container ships,
roll-on/roll-off ships, and product tankers to carry military
cargoes;
(5) the Department of Defense benefits from a robust
commercial shipyard and ship repair industry and current growth
in that sector is particularly important as Federal budget cuts
may reduce the number of new constructed military vessels; and
(6) the domestic fleet is essential to national security and
was a primary source of mariners needed to crew United States
Government-owned sealift vessels activated from reserve status
during Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom in the
period 2002 through 2010.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that United
States coastwise trade laws promote a strong domestic trade maritime
industry, which supports the national security and economic vitality of
the United States and the efficient operation of the United States
transportation system.
