Applied Research for the Advancement of S&T Priorities (ARAP)

Abstract

The program focuses on cross-cutting S&T efforts that foster tri-service research areas of common interest that give the joint warfighter a technological advantage. It focuses on emerging areas of science, building expertise within the DoD laboratories, including investment in laboratory infrastructure and people, and on research areas that are a foundation for further investments by the Services following the completion of the projects. Cross-cutting efforts are aligned with S&T Priorities, such as Electronic Warfare, Human Systems, Autonomy, Space, Kinetic Weapons, Directed Energy and Non-Lethal Weapons, Cyber, Sensors and Processing, Command, Control, Communications, Computers and Intelligence, Air Platforms, and Ground and Sea Platforms, as well other focus areas, such as Materials and Manufacturing Processes, Advanced Electronics, Energy and Power Technologies, Biotechnology, and Armed Services Biomedical Research Evaluation and Management.
