WEAPONS
Abstract
Efforts include: Undersea Weaponry; Energetic Materials and Propulsion; Expeditionary Operations (communications, materials for forensic sensing, landmine detection, human sensory enhancements, lightweight power sources and information efficiency); Directed Energy; Counter Directed Energy and Applied Electromagnetics. This activity also includes Secretary of Defense directed peer-review basic research to develop innovative solutions and enhance the science and engineering base. This activity also includes Secretary of Defense directed peer-review basic research to develop innovative solutions and enhance the science and engineering base. It also includes efforts initiated under the Basic Research Challenge Program. Accomplishments and plans described below are examples for each effort category. The increase in FY 2012 is due to funding related to increased support of the EM Railgun. The increase in FY 2013 is due to increased basic research in Advanced Energetic Materials and Counter Directed Energy Weapons.
