Realizing Disruptive Technologies for DoD Modernization Focus Area
Abstract
This focus area matures key capabilities that augment platforms, weapons, sensors, and other solutions to modernization challenges. Selected projects leverage investment from traditional and non-traditional industry partners; proven commercial- and government- off-the-shelf technologies; rapidly maturing technologies within Service laboratories, academia, and Federally Funded Research and Development Centers (FFRDCs); technologies from allied nations; and direct warfighter feedback to identify and address gaps within current and developing capabilities. These targeted investments accelerate capabilities to the warfighter and realize new disruptive technologies through low cost, rapid innovation within the development process of major system prototypes through the Strategic Capabilities Office, Defense Innovation Unit, and Service programs of record. Example projects include novel learning algorithms and next generation computing; adaptation of commercial cyber tools; proof of concept demonstrations of quantum sensors; unique applications of active and passive radio frequency architectures; and, early-stage concepts for highly-efficient directed energy subsystems.
