In this capacity, ASD(R&E) serves as the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) for the Department of Defense charged with the development and oversight of DoD technology strategy in concert with the Department’s current and future requirements. The goal of ASD(R&E)is to extend the capabilities of current war fighting systems, develop breakthrough capabilities, hedge against an uncertain future through a set of scientific and engineering options and counter strategic surprise. In cooperation with the Deputy Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and Technology (DUSD(A&T)), ASD(R&E) also provides advice and assistance in developing policies for rapid technology transition. As of July 2009, DDR&E introduced four areas of focus in support of the immediate and future needs of the DoD: * Accelerate delivery of technical capabilities to win the current fight. * Prepare for an uncertain future. * Reduce the cost, acquisition time and risk of .. major defense acquisition programs. * Develop world class science, technology, engineering, and mathematics capabilities for the DoD and the Nation.
