The Navy’s fifth Littoral Combat Ship (LCS), Milwaukee, will be the first to benefit from new high-power density waterjets aimed at staving off rudder and propeller damage experienced on high-speed ships.

The 2005 Naval-Industry R&D Partnership Conference will take place July 26-29 at the Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center in Washington, D.C. The theme, “Enabling Naval Innovations to Win the Global War on Terrorism,” will promote the Navy/Marine Corps objective to rapidly develop and implement innovative solutions to the unique challenges of this war.

ARLINGTON, Va.—In the somber wake of recent attacks in Paris, three World War II allies honored decades of defense-critical scientific collaboration—and re-affirmed their partnership for years to come. On Nov. 17, at the Embassy of Canada in Washington, the U.S. Office of Naval Research, the British...

The Littoral Geosciences and Optics program (ONR 322LO) supports basic and applied research for expeditionary warfare, naval special warfare, mine warfare and antisubmarine warfare in shelf, near-shore, estuarine, riverine and riparian environments, with a particular emphasis on robust 4D prediction of environmental characteristics in denied, distant or remote environments.

The Office of Naval Research recently sponsored the Defend the Republic STEM competition at George Mason University in Virginia. The contest featured lighter-than-air vehicles, also called blimps.

In an effort to increase the range and detection of various unmanned surface vessels (USVs), the Office of Naval Research (ONR)-sponsored SCOUT initiative recently conducted a unique demonstration event off the coast of Virginia Beach, Virginia.

In late March, the U.S. Navy established a camp on a severe and unforgivingly cold stretch of ice about 150 miles north of Deadhorse, Alaska.

The Flight Dynamics and Control program is part of the Office of Naval Research's Naval Air Warfare and Weapons Department.

The competition—sponsored by the Office of Naval Research and the Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International Foundation—is an autonomous robotics challenge where teams put their autonomous surface vehicles through a marked navigation channel and a series of challenges. The goal is to boost student interest in science, technology, engineering and mathematics and to inspire them to follow a naval career in these fields.

The Office of Naval Research's Machine Learning, Reasoning and Intelligence program focuses on developing the science base and efficient computational methods for building versatile intelligent agents (cyber and physical) that can perform various tasks with minimal human supervision.
