Next-generation defense technology will generate massive heat on a massive scale: the U.S. military's Joint All Domain Command and Control (#JADC2) architecture will encompass all five warfighting domains, consuming power and needing to dissipate heat for an enormous number of systems. Breaking Defense explores this challenge for JADC2 architects and goes into detail on a solution: "The Carbice thermal solution vertically aligns billions of carbon nanotubes to form a highway for heat to move from the hot side of systems to the cold. The result is unlike any solid, liquid, or phase-change material otherwise available." Carbice aligned CNTs are one of the most efficient conductors of heat ever developed and mission critical technology for high-performance systems. As GM Rafael Spears shares, “Power consumption and heat dissipation at the edge ... significantly impact hardware performance, energy efficiency, and overall system reliability, as thermal management is a challenge across all domains. Addressing this is integral to the future JADC2 architecture." #NationalDefense #Defense #JADC2 #DoD #MultidomainOperations #Space #Aerospace #Cyberspace #Air #Land #Maritime #USArmy #USNavy #USAirForce #USMarines #USCoastGuard #USMilitary #Innovation #Computing #AI #Sustainability #CarbonNanotubes #CNT #ThermalManagement #BuildStronger #AchieveMore

Another must-read by Pete Modigliani on how to leverage commercial acquisition in the real world. Most important here is that this lays out a strategy using existing acquisition tools and regulations that could be used today. These are not reforms but rather a new way of thinking using the current toolbox to maximize our advantage in technological innovation. "Instead of DoD spending years writing requirements, conducting analysis, actively designing, and overseeing development of systems, industry could proactively develop many solutions. DoD can communicate operational needs, limitations of current systems or and operational risks, and desired outcomes to let industry iteratively design and develop solutions. This may save years over traditional requirements and acquisition timelines as well as millions or billions in costs." #defenseindustry #defensetech #defenseinnovation https://lnkd.in/ekFz3-78

Elios 3 UT payload is now available.
