Asymmetric Counters to Unconventional Weapons and Missile Threats Focus Area

Abstract

This focus area addresses time-sensitive threats from weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and missile delivery systems through rapidly deployed, resilient concepts and enabling technologies to reduce the kill chain timeline. Projects will leverage advanced networked sensors, autonomous learning systems, and low-cost strike concepts to asymmetrically defeat time-sensitive threats. The focus area is aimed at developing prototype technologies and demonstrations that reduce the kill chain timeline via: (1) Enhanced capabilities to rapidly find, fix, and track WMD and missile threats; (2) Persistent intelligence and target discrimination in anti-access/aerial denial (A2/AD) environments; (3) Adaptable, resilient, strike concepts to promptly engage weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and missile delivery systems.
