Directed Energy Capabilities (FY 2011 and FY 2012 New Start Focal Area Plans)

Abstract

Focal areas for FY 2011 and FY 2012 QRF Directed Energy Capabilities new project starts include efforts to develop capabilities in anticipation of emerging needs to include: technologies to counter threats with speed-of-light, precision, deep magazine, and low collateral engagement modalities. Emphasis will be on Laser engagement technologies to include Short Pulse, Ultra Short Pulse, and High Energy Laser technologies integrated and demonstrated on tactical manned and unmanned vehicles with Joint mission applicability. Rapid Reaction Technology Office (RRTO) will ensure QRF efforts are not duplicative with other Directed Energy Capabilities efforts and will seek to leverage other such efforts.
