Description
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is soliciting innovative executive summaries and proposals to enhance the nation's ability to rapidly build, adapt, and sustain force structures. The focus areas include Design/Build/Buy, Surge and Sustain, Long Range Effects, and Disruptive Innovation. Proposed research should investigate innovative approaches that enable revolutionary advances in science, devices, or systems. The proposal should address one or more of the focus areas and provide a clear explanation of the intended results.
• Design/Build/Buy: innovative design approaches for new defense systems
• Surge and Sustain: technologies to make existing military systems easy to replenish and abundantly available
• Long Range Effects: new systems and approaches to enable decisive military effects at distances
• Disruptive Innovation: novel engineering, technology, and systems approaches to disrupt the battlefield
