Prototyping
Abstract
The Prototyping project enables integration and demonstration of emerging technologies in an operational environment in order to determine and evaluate the completive advantage against our adversaries and how the technology is integrated into the future fight. Prototype project investments focus on three major thrusts (1) advancing capabilities of legacy weapon systems, (2) militarizing novel mature commercial technologies, and (3) exploring partnerships with Department of the Air Force Program Executive Officers to rapidly transition technologies that are being developed as part of the Department of Air Force Vanguard programs. Prototype project investments funded under the advancing capabilities of legacy weapon systems thrust focus on integrating commercial proliferated Low Earth Orbit satellite capabilities into legacy weapon systems, directed energy and kinetic energy effectors for base defense, multi-source resilient Position Navigation and Timing pod, and software defined electronic warfare and communication capabilities. Prototype projects under the militarizing novel mature commercial technologies thrust will focus on artificial intelligence, autonomy, cyber warfare capabilities, digital engineering and novel weapon and aircraft technologies. Finally, prototype projects under the exploring partnerships thrust will invest in risk reduction activities in partnership with the Department of the Air Force Program Executive Officers assigned to each of the Department of the Air Force Vanguard Programs to ensure rapid and seamless transition of Science and Technology into warfighting capabilities. This program element may include necessary emergent or unanticipated civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver Tech Transition - Prototyping for emergent or unanticipated weapon system capability. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program element 0605831F.
