Joint Lethality Focus Area

Abstract

This focus area matures joint prototypes to maintain U.S. dominance in the air, space, and ground domains; rapidly and precisely defeat foreign threats; and, maintain a decisive conventional force. Projects enable the warfighter to identify technical and operational deficiencies; characterize diverse threats in complex environments; explore emerging and novel attack capabilities inside adversaries' defense networks; and, improve warfighter readiness. Prototype technologies will advance and evaluate capabilities in long range weapons; kinetic and non-kinetic precision weapons; novel delivery systems and weapon effects; and, countermeasure mitigation. These prototype capabilities will reduce technical and integration risk; and, provide joint, cross-cutting value to the warfighter. A cross functional team, led by the OUDS(R&E), will review and select prototyping proposals from across the Department of Defense in the year of execution.
