Acquisition “The Defense Acquisition System exists to manage the
Nation's investments in technologies, programs, and product support necessary to achieve the National Security Strategy and support the United States Armed Forces. … (the) continued objective is to rapidly acquire quality products that satisfy user needs with measurable improvements to mission capability at a fair and reasonable price. The fundamental principles and procedures that the Department follows in achieving those objectives are described in DoD Directive 5000.1 and DoD Instruction 5000.2.”
“…How the DoD acquires weapons systems and automated information systems…”

RD&A
6 Fly – Fight – Win
RD&A Science & Technology
Projects at 6.1, 6.2, and 6.3 - basic, applied and
advanced technology development focused 10+
years out
~2.7% of DoD budget, 18% of DoD RDT&E budget
Performed by defense agencies / service labs,
universities, and industry
Will lead to development of new technologies
which will protect our forces and ensure
U.S.military dominance
Examples: Nanotechnology / Nanobiotechnology;
Enhanced computing technologies; Self-healing &
monitoring technologies; Improved explosives
detection etc.
