Researchers eye quantum timing for improved position, navigation, and timing (PNT) in maritime environments

1 week ago | militaryaerospace.com | John Keller

WASHINGTON – U.S. military emerging capabilities experts are surveying industry for companies able to design and build prototype quantum timing technologies on short-notice in time for testing scheduled for next month. Officials of the Washington Headquarters Services in the Pentagon issued a request for information (HQ003425RFIQTT) on Wednesday for the Quantum Timing Technology project.
Hypersonic research progressing toward possible future weapons and aircraft deployment

1 week ago | militaryaerospace.com | John Keller

U.S. hypersonic weapons and aircraft development has progressed over the past year, bringing several trends into focus, and helping to chart a future for future weapons and planes that can travel at speeds of at least five times the speed of sound -- or nearly 4,000 miles per hour. Such capability could deliver guided munitions able to attack an adversary virtually before he could activate air defenses. It could help deliver an aircraft able to fly coast-to-coast in less than an hour.

ARLINGTON, Va. – U.S. military researchers are approaching industry for new ways of modeling complex, dynamic systems for predicting collective human behavior that overcome challenges that so far have frustrated attempts at emulating evolving time-varying systems.
NASA awards Aptima contract to help define safe human-to-UAV ratios

2 weeks ago | militaryaerospace.com | Jamie Whitney

WOBURN, Mass. - The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has awarded Aptima in Woburn, Mass., a contract to help develop a science-based framework for determining how many uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs) a single human operator can safely and effectively control. The contract, awarded through NASA’s Langley Research Center in Hampton, Va., supports efforts to address a growing challenge in UAV operations: managing fleets of drones with fewer human operators.
