2.0 BACKGROUND
Phillips Research Site is the home of the Air Force Research Laboratory’s Space Vehicles and Directed Energy Directorates. The mission of the Space Vehicles Directorate is to develop space technologies that support evolving space related warfighter requirements. Primary areas of importance include but are not limited to communications, positioning, navigation, and timing, space cyber, space modeling and simulation, space evaluation and analysis assessments, defensive space control, space situational awareness, and intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, as well as performing a variety of integrated space technology experiments. The mission of the Directed Energy Directorate is to develop advanced directed energy technologies that support evolving tactical and strategic warfighter requirements. Primary areas of importance include but are not limited to high-powered electromagnetics, laser systems, directed energy and electro-optics for space superiority, and directed energy weapons modeling and simulation.
AFRL’s principal responsibilities are to perform research and development of space and directed energy technologies and systems required to meet the wide spectrum of ever-expanding political, environmental and technical challenges and to address long term effects of these technologies and their associated subsystems. The Space Vehicles Directorate’s technical portfolio addresses the missions of:
Intelligence, Surveillance, & Reconnaissance and Missile Warning; Space Communications;
Positioning, Navigation, and Timing; Defensive Space Control/Space Situational Awareness; Nuclear Deterrence Operations; and Battle Management/Command and Control. The Directed Energy Directorate encompasses the development, demonstration, and transition of directed energy technologies required for High Power Electromagnetics, Laser Systems, Weapons Modeling and Simulation, Directed Energy for Electro-Optics and Space Superiority.
These two Directorates at Kirtland AFB are part of the larger AFRL team that consists of nine total directorates. The AFRL headquarters is located at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Dayton, Ohio. In addition, besides with the other AFRL directorates, the Space Vehicles and the Directed Energy Directorates interact on a daily basis with many outside government, industrial, international, and academic agencies and offices such as the Space and Missile Systems Center (SMC) and other centers, Air Force Space Command (AFSPC) and other major commands, the High Energy Laser Joint Technology Office (HEL-JTO), the Joint Improvised Explosive Device Defeat Organization (JIEDDO), the Missile Defense Agency (MDA), the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the Department of Energy (DoE), MIT Lincoln Laboratories (MIT/LL), the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO), the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA), the Air Force Nuclear Weapons Center (AFNWC), universities across the world, international partners, and others with whom we leverage laboratory technology development through joint efforts in areas of mutual interest.
