The San Diego-based Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command is now the Naval Information Warfare Systems Command, a name-change the Navy’s top commander says will reflect the information warfare part of its mission.

Adm. John Richardson, the chief of naval operations, announced the name change at a leadership conference in Washington, D.C. on Monday.

“This new name more accurately describes the full totality of the mission, supporting naval warfare — from seabed to space,” Richardson said in a pre-recorded video that included NAVWAR’s commander, Rear Adm. Christian Becker.

NAVWAR develops and maintains the Navy’s electronic communications systems, intelligence technology and communications satellites.

Like other systems commands, NAVWAR is responsible for working with the defense industry to develop and build new weapons systems for the Navy.
