Strategic Technologies
DARPA is seeking innovative ideas and disruptive technologies that provide the U. S. military significant capability improvement to dominate across all scales of conflict intensity.
These span highly contested force-on-force conflicts to ambiguous, complex “Gray Zone” conflicts.
Technologies should support conflicts that may take place in a range of environments from austere, remote locations to dense megacities.
The Strategic Technology Office (STO) focus areas within these broader objectives include:
Situation Understanding, Multi-Domain Maneuver, Hybrid Effects, System of Systems (SoS), Maritime Systems, System of System-Enhanced Small Units (SESU), and Foundational Strategic Technologies.
