Air Force Research Laboratory Technology Milestones 2008

Abstract

The Air Force Science and Technology Milestones assembled in this book often represent the combined effort of several scientists and engineers, or groups thereof, working as a team. The basic research, applied research, and follow-on technology development efforts described herein are essential to the continued success of the Air Force mission. This book is a compilation of notable Technology Milestones selected from the following categories: Response to Needs - Technology that demonstrates potential for, or has already achieved, application on a developmental or operational Department of Defense system and/or technology that provides Linguistic processing "quick-reaction" response to problems or needs of field organizations. Discovery - Major innovative technological advancements that offer significant potential for existing and future Air Force systems. Demonstrations/Exercises - Examples of significant demonstration/exercise events, including flight tests, system prototype validations, joint force exercises, and similar activities. Technology Transfer - Technology that has transferred from the laboratory to the private sector, to include industry, academia, and state and local governments.
