Sustaining and Enhancing the US Militarys Technology Edge

The United States has long enjoyed a powerful military with a significant technological advantage, if not superiority, over its competitors and adversaries. The Department of Defenses (DOD) ability to develop and integrate new, cutting-edge capabilities like stealth, precision-guided munitions, and networked command, control, communications, computers,intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (C4ISR) has been a vital source of strength, agility, and confidence in our nations armed forces. Along with the extraordinary quality of the men and women who serve in our all-volunteer force, our technological prowess has long been a distinct advantage that makes the US military the best in the world.
