This site is designed to document pork (unneeded spending), though I wouldn't say much of what I found was wasted spending. Anyway, here are some of the more interesting project: Handheld holographic radar gun [H3G] (Research, Development, Test and Evaluation - Air Force) MEMS for rolling element bearings (Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation - Defense Wide) Sensor upgrade on special project aircraft (Research, Development, Test and Evaluation - Navy) Nonlinear acoustic mine detection (Research, Development, Test and Evaluation - Army) Laser induced surface improvement (Research, Development, Test and Evaluation - Air Force) DNA chip technology research (Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation - Defense Wide) Portable hybrid electron power systems (Research, Development, Test and Evaluation - Army) Cognitive research (Research, Development, Test and Evaluation - Navy) Electro-magnetic nanopulse (Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation - Defense Wide) Hunter UAV (Operation and Maintenance - Army) Force protection from terrorist weapons (Research, Development, Test and Evaluation - Army) Low frequency broadband acoustic airgun source (Research, Development, Test and Evaluation - Navy) F-22 digital EW product improvement (Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation - Defense Wide) HAARP (Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation - Defense Wide) Global Hawk (Research, Development, Test and Evaluation - Air Force) Classified and intelligence (Operation and Maintenance - Defense Wide)
[MEMS are micro-machines]
[This could be laser annealing.]
