.AFWERX, the #innovation arm of the U.S. Air Force, unleashes small business and startup ingenuity to tackle the most pressing challenges, helping to strengthen the U.S. defense industrial base and accelerate #technology transition to operational capability.

When it comes to logistics in contested environments, there are many challenges &amp; processes. During #PCC5, the @usmc showcased multi-domain concepts, demonstrated advanced capabilities &amp; tested future ideas for the joint services, multinational allies &amp; partners. #innovation

Pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. The Air Force Research Lab - AFRL is creating seamless #partnerships between pilots and autonomous systems through tech that can understand and adapt to human intent, allowing the U.S. to stay ahead of the #technology hype curve.

A laser engraver at Naval Undersea Warfare Center Keyport is one of many technologies helping to create repair parts for U.S. Navy subs &amp; ships. The Keyport Innovation Center, where the engraver is housed, lets personnel learn new AM skills and create prototypes for new concepts:

The future of amphibious landings. Thanks to U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) &amp; U.S. Army ERDC, @usmc has a new surf observation tool to streamline forecasting surf zone conditions, providing real-time, precise data to make informed decisions when bringing vessels ashore:

More lethal. More survivable. More mobile. More flexible. By emphasizing speed, agility &amp; technology integration, the @usarmy is adapting its organizations &amp; delivering new #technology to soldiers so they can experiment, #innovate and be ready to fight on a modern battlefield.

.Naval Undersea Warfare Center Keyport experts are leading the way in additive manufacturing by creating &amp; repairing parts for the submarine industrial base. Learn more about the facility &amp; its collaborative innovation center that's teaching employees skills to create new tech:

The new @mohmuseum boasts several interactives, one of which allows visitors to experience the difficult decision-making required of pilots during “Dustoff” missions in the Vietnam War. Learn more about all the new museum has to offer here:

Math leads to huge tech #innovations, but it's a slow process. A DARPA program that’s soliciting proposals aims to use #AI to quicken that pace to help experts break complex problems into more manageable components. Learn more or submit your proposal:

Space flight = the ultimate team sport. In 2024, NASA opened new doors of discovery on the moon &amp; beyond. From the total solar eclipse &amp; the CHAPEA Mars simulation to the Artemis Accords &amp; new supersonic aircraft, see the highlights of #NASA’s biggest year yet. #Bestof2024

Meet the Space Cowboys! These Vandenberg Space Force Base Guardians handle, transport &amp; position the motors of Minotaur IV rockets that do ballistics tests or deliver satellites into orbit. This team is the DOD’s only expeditionary space launch &amp; transport capability:

Unleashing the next generation of talent. Hundreds of high schoolers recently competed at a San Diego FIRST Robotics Competition and were mentored by @usnavy employees who, aside from teaching technical aspects, coached leadership &amp; cooperation skills. #STEM #NAVWAR #robotics

Project Convergence Capstone 5 will test out new UAS, counter-UAS &amp; air space control systems in a joint, multination experiment. The U.S. Army-hosted PCC-5 will provide a critical venue to ID &amp; refine recommendations to transform the services &amp; ensure warfighter #readiness.

The Refinery aims to build world-class innovators &amp; accelerate their tactical prototypes to adopt the right capabilities into the U.S. Air Force. The AFWERX #innovation accelerator has shaped projects &amp; provided value to the AF through in-person training:

The @spaceforcedod’s 1st Range Operations Squadron contributed to the inaugural Generative #AI Challenge, a program that blended an #ArtificialIntelligence course with a problem-solving hackathon, exemplifying the force’s commitment to tech #innovation:

Construction on 🧊! Naval Mobile Construction Battalion 3 #Seabees on a detachment to Antarctica wrap up the first half of their project for the U.S. National Science Foundation in support of Operation Deep Freeze. #OperationDeepFreeze #NMCB3 #science
