The facility is able to reproduce the extreme temperatures and pressures generated by a variety of aircraft for testing of pavement and ship deck materials. NAVFAC EXWC, NAVFAC's only Warfare Center, hosted six Senior Executive Service (SES) leaders from the Naval Research Lab (NRL), in an effort to increase collaboration between the two organizations.
