Quantum Transition Acceleration
Abstract
The Department of Defense (DoD) has pioneered and advanced classical sensor technology for decades. Over the past years, quantum sensing technology has shown the ability to meet program level metrics throughout DoD R&D programs. In order to sustain technological superiority, the Department must continue to work to transition sensor research and development for United States Air Force, Army and Navy applications. This funding will allow OUSD(R&E) oversight of a multi-service program designed to develop quantum sensing technology capable of integration into multiple DoD applications in each of the Army, Navy, and Air Force. As structured, the program will be able to maximize the utilization of the military department’s distributed technical expertise and capabilities. OUSD(R&E) will contribute connections to program of record and the joint force strategic goals, connectivity and integration between organizations, risk reductions to individual project through coordinated work on technology challenges, and connectivity to other R&E capabilities including the other critical technology areas, basic science office, manufacturing innovation, and the microelectronics commons. OUSD(R&E) will confirm all developed quantum technology meets specified requirements ensuring a more diverse use case for all developed technology with an industry base that can sustain DoD needs. Projects will include testing and evaluation, device integration, and application analysis to aid in future acquisition and sustainment of innovative technologies developed in DoD research programs.
