The Department of Defense Statement on Science in the Science and Technology Program before the Subcommittee on Research and Development of the Committee on Armed Services of the United States House of Representatives, 99th Congress, Second Session.

Abstract

Topics discussed in the statement, promising opportunities are being explored in the non-medical aspects of biotechnology, research to increase the efficiency and reduce costs in logistics functions, robotics and manufacturing sciences. The program is balanced to cover these and other revolutionary and evolutionary technologies essential for modernization of future forces. The Department is committed to ensuring that the Science and Technology (S&T) program is maintained at a viable level and that it will continue to be performed by a combination of industry, universities and DoD in-house laboratories. It is our view that this broad innovative base has served the country well and we will continue to depend upon it for the concepts, equipment and techniques needed for continued U.S. national security strength.
