At NAVWAR, our mission is to identify, develop, and deliver advanced information warfare capabilities that empower our warfighters to dominate across all domains – from the depth of the ocean to the reaches of space, and through cyberspace. We ensure that Fleet Sailors are equipped with the tools, technologies, and services they need to succeed in an increasingly complex and contested environment.
Our Mission Mindset Tours offer NAVWAR employees a unique opportunity to witness firsthand how your work supports the Navy’s mission. By touring a ship, shore facility, or lab site, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of how your efforts contribute directly to Fleet Sailors, reinforcing the vital role NAVWAR plays in the success of naval operations.

Our tours are scheduled every month. The time is typically between 8:00am - 12:30pm depending on the locations.
Please be at Old Town Campus OT6 no later than 0750am, on the scheduled tour date, for a quick safety and Navy 101 Brief. (That is the small building with the BIG Flagpole, just to the left of the NAVWAR Old Town Main Security Gate, facing Pacific Highway). Park anywhere not reserved. For last-minute tour questions or concerns please text/call: Michael Thorn (954) 756-2448. More Information will be emailed to you regarding the time and the tour name.
We will be touring an industrial environment with moving equipment and working military personnel-your safety is both of our jobs. Move cautiously, use any and all available hand rails or hand holds, stay with the group, mind your step and watch for head clearance.
Guests should dress casually, wearing comfortable clothing – jeans or slacks, long-sleeved shirts, and comfortable walking CLOSED-TOE shoes. Shoes with low, rubberized soles are suggested. A ship is an industrial environment with steep stairways called ladders; high-heels, open-toed shoes, sandals, and dresses are not permitted. Do not wear dinner jackets or ties. Also avoid necklaces that can get caught or anything else that may impact the ability to climb steep stairs and ladders with both hands.
