Air Force Research Laboratory Success Stories. A Review of 2002

Abstract

With a team of more than 5,200 scientists, engineers, and support personnel worldwide, the Air Force Research Laboratory is one of the most exciting organizations in the Air Force. AFRL team members are up close and personal with the discovery, development, and integration of cutting-edge technologies for today, tomorrow, and well into the future. AFRL is headquartered at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio and is the Air Force's largest employer of scientist and engineers-about 3,000-of which more than 800 have doctorate degrees in science and engineering disciplines. These highly skilled and motivated people are critical in leading our government- industry-university team and in making technological and scientific breakthroughs. Our scientists and engineers push the limits of air and space, bringing critical technologies forward into the realm of application. This world-class laboratory harnesses the innovative ideas of the best minds in government, industry and academia to create the future of the Air Force. The men and women of AFRL defend America by unleashing the power of innovative science and technology. AFRL Success Stories highlight the cutting-edge research performed within the laboratory. The following pages feature some of our most noteworthy successes during 2002. These stories are just the "tip of the iceberg" of AFRL technologies currently under development.
