Directed Energy Technology Experimentation Research (DETER) Advanced Research Announcement (ARA) Open Announcement
This is an open, ongoing announcement from the Air Force Research Laboratory at Kirtland AFB, NM, seeking white papers and proposals for research, development, and testing of directed energy technologies across nine broad topic areas. The program uses a flexible hybrid process where white papers can be submitted at any time to an open announcement, and specific Calls with varying submission types may also be issued. The overarching announcement has no specified budget ceiling, but individual Calls may provide estimated values. The period of performance for any award will be determined through discussions with the government for each specific topic.
