Lethality Enabling University Adv Development
Abstract
The Project leverages advanced developments and technological innovations from academia, of lethal directed energy, laser diagnostics and accelerated design of future hypersonics and their scramjet engine combustion, deep learning and novel materials of importance to the Army, by maturing developments and performs demonstrations focused on getting technology to the warfighter more quickly. This Project exploits advanced research and development efforts to focus more on mid to far-term Army modernization priorities while also maintaining delivery of near-term technologies critical to the Long Range Precision Fires and Air and Missile Defense. This Project focuses on maturation and demonstration of various advanced technologies originating from extramural applied research in academia pertaining to lethal directed energy, laser diagnostics, future hypersonic glide body and scramjet propulsor design, deep learning, novel materials, and expansion of the Ballistic, Aero-Optics and Materials (B.A.M.) range applied to lethality. This effort validates advanced research and performs demonstrations leading to potential emerging technologies in areas of strategic importance to the Army in directed energy, future hypersonic glide body design, deep learning and novel materials, etc., by bringing competitively selected Universities with research and development teams into Technical Alliances. Work in this Project complements Program Element (PE) 0620141A (Lethality Technology), PE 0602147A (Long Range Precision Fires), PE 0603464A (Long Range Precision Fires Advanced Technology), and PE 0603466A (Air and Missile Defense Advanced Technology) The work cited is consistent with Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Work in this Project is performed by the United States Army Futures Command.
