Army Applied Research

Army Applied Research aims to systematically apply knowledge for the development of useful materials, devices, and systems tailored for Army applications. This includes the design, development, and enhancement of science and technology. The program encompasses studies, investigations, and non-system specific technology efforts leading to bread-board hardware or proof of principle analysis. The specific goal is to advance research and development in support of the Army's technological needs.

The budget increase for priority Army Applied Research efforts reflects the program's objective to enhance its research and development capabilities. The funding supports the systematic application of knowledge for the production of materials, devices, and systems tailored for Army applications. This includes efforts in design, development, and improvement of science and technology. The increased allocation aligns with the program's mission to drive advancements in research and development to meet the evolving technological requirements of the Army.
