The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), through its Tactical Technology Office (TTO), believes that the next great warfighting idea might be hiding in the brain of some previously unknown professor or inventor, or within the pages of an entrepreneur’s unread journal. The agency wants to learn about those ideas, no matter how crazy or non-traditional they might seem, and evaluate them for development and possible deployment within the military.
“We want ideas that upset the enterprise, unexpected approaches that could fundamentally change the way we develop, design, build, deploy and operate military systems,” said Fred Kennedy, director of DARPA’s Tactical Technology Office. “Don’t be afraid to challenge the most basic assumptions about how we fight, and what we give our warfighters to fight with.”
