NTNF Capability Development
Abstract
The development of capability to identify the source of nuclear material from radioactive debris is critical to our national defense and security. Swift and accurate forensic and attribution (identification) capabilities are vital to supporting the President and Secretary of Defense in developing an appropriate national response to a nuclear event and to prevent future attacks in a timely manner. NTNF investments support development and retention of technical nuclear forensics expertise, improve the fixed laboratory process, improving legacy NTNF capabilities, and supporting operationalization of new capabilities.
