An Evaluation of USAF International Cooperative R and D.

Abstract

International cooperative research and development (ICR/D) is the collaboration of the US and one or more of its allies in various R/D ventures to fulfill a common requirement. This report covers the purpose, scope and posture of the USAF in its dealings in ICR/D. The attitudes and barriers toward ICR/D are discussed in light of today's environment. Evolution of the ICR/D concept/process, types of cooperation and the mechanics of implementing ICR/D are also dealt with. The report concludes that attitudes/barriers to ICR/D are manageable, but without a change in outlook and posture, cooperation will tend to remain dormant. (Author)
