Force Projection Technologies Focus Area
Abstract
This focus area matures joint prototypes to maintain U.S. dominance in the air, space, and ground domains; rapidly and precisely defeat foreign threats; and maintain a decisive conventional force. Prototype technologies will advance capabilities in long range weapons; kinetic and non-kinetic precision weapons; novel delivery systems and weapon effects; and, countermeasure mitigation. Specific activities include weapon development, effects testing, CONOPS experimentation, and scalable lethality based on target characterization. These prototype capabilities will reduce technical and integration risk and provide joint cross-cutting value to the warfighter. A cross functional team, led by the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering, will review and select prototyping proposals from across the Department of Defense in the year of execution.
