Early-stage research ideas and technology demonstrators against NSWC Crane's ten technical capability areas — electronic warfare, infrared and pyrotechnic countermeasures, strategic systems hardware, expeditionary warfare systems, advanced electronics, sensors and surveillance, hypersonic weapon systems, power and energy systems, electro-optic and infrared technologies, and force-level electronic-warfare mission analysis. Topics not already covered by other NSWC Crane solicitations.
