Research Interests of the Air Force Office of Scientific Research and Broad Agency Announcement 98-1.

Abstract

The Introduction describes the Broad Agency Announcement (BAA), the mechanism AFOSR uses to solicit research proposals. It also provides an overview of the general approach used to submit proposals. AFOSR's foreign research offices, in London (the European Office of Aerospace Research and Development-EOARD) and Tokyo (the Asian Office of Aerospace Research and Development-AOARD) also employ this BAA. EQARD and AOARD manage programs that provide access to international research and research organizations of interest to the Air Force and other DoD organizations. In fiscal year 1996, EOARD and AOARD awarded III contract and grants totaling $3 .5M to research universities and institutions from African, Asian, European, Middle Eastern, and Pacific Rim countries. (Sec EOARD and AOARD homepages for more information.) The New World Vistas (NWV) section describes the NWV reports on science and technology needed to support six future Air Force capability areas: Global Awareness, Dynamic Planning and Execution Control, Global Mobility in War and Peace, Projection of Lethal and Sub-lethal Power, Space Operations, and People.
