Abstract :
The desire to autonomously anticipate, find, fix, track, target, engage, and assess, anything, anytime, anywhere (AF2T2EA4) in spectrally dense environments will require changes to how we build, modify, and deploy radar and radio frequency systems. These spectrally dense environments coupled with the twenty-first century threat are already causing havoc throughout the world.
