Joint Non Lethal Weapons

Abstract

This project funds the research and development of next-generation Non-Lethal Weapons and includes performing analysis, technical development efforts, and modeling and simulation necessary to ensure optimum weaponization and use of these NLWs. Investment areas include research and development of next-generation Non-Lethal Weapons (NLW) such as: non-lethal directed energy weapons (lasers, millimeter wave and high power microwave) for counter-personnel and counter-materiel missions; non-lethal counter-personnel technologies (acoustic, optical, and human electro-muscular disruption technologies), and advanced non-lethal materiels (including materiels for vehicle/vessel stopping and counter-facility applications). Next-generation Non-Lethal Weapon systems focus on long-range localized Non-Lethal effects to identified threat individuals (or groups of individuals) and/or their threat weapons systems operating in complicated environments such as urban areas, crowds, buildings, vehicles, vessels, and also in close proximity to high-value civilian facilities.
