Extremely Low Frequency and Very Low Frequency (ELF/VLF ) Communications for Underground, Underwater, and Hypersonic Flight
Radio frequency (RF) technologies have limitations that cannot fulfill specific requirements. For instance, underground and underwater are challenging environments due to the absorption of high frequency electromagnetic (EM) waves in dense media. For hypersonic communications, Very Low Frequencies (VLF) band signals have large EM wavelengths that can penetrate the plasma …

Countries developing autonomous, Networked Swarms of Munitions or collaborative weapons
Current weapons generally fly a pre-designated mission. If the enemy does something unexpected, preprogrammed weapons are ineffective, and additional weapons may be required to complete the mission. Autonomous, Networked, and collaborative weapons are advantageous since they observe and react to the enemy in real time, helping weapons overcome adversary defenses …
