War Department refocuses on AI, hypersonics and directed energy in major strategy overhaul
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
EXCLUSIVE – The War Department is narrowing its research and development strategy to six «Critical Technology Areas» officials say will speed up innovation and strengthen America’s military edge.
Under Secretary of War for Research and Engineering Emil Michael said the plan will deliver faster, more focused results to the warfighter by merging overlapping programs and steering funding toward technologies that will shape future conflicts.
«As the Department of War’s Chief Technology Officer, I am statutorily charged with the mission of advancing technology and innovation for the armed forces,» Michael wrote in a Nov. 13 memorandum to senior Pentagon and combatant command leadership. «The previous list of fourteen CTAs did not provide the focus that the threat environment of today requires.»
The six areas—Applied Artificial Intelligence, Biomanufacturing, Contested Logistics Technologies, Quantum and Battlefield Information Dominance, Scaled Directed Energy and Scaled Hypersonics — will be advanced through rapid «sprints» designed to move emerging technologies from prototype to production.

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said the streamlined approach will keep the United States ahead of its rivals.
«Our nation’s military has always been the tip of the spear,» Hegseth said. «Under Secretary Emil Michael’s six Critical Technology Areas will ensure that our warriors never enter a fair fight and have the best systems in their hands for maximum lethality.»
The initiative also aligns with President Donald Trump’s Artificial Intelligence Action Plan, which directs the War Department to become an «AI-First» organization.
Officials say the shift will reshape how intelligence is processed, how logistics are managed and how weapons systems are deployed.
«In alignment with President Trump’s Artificial Intelligence (AI) Action Plan, the Department of War must become an ‘AI-First’ organization,» Michael wrote. «When adopted rapidly, AI will fundamentally transform the Department from the enterprise-level, to intelligence synthesis and to warfighting.»

Michael’s plan emphasizes resilience and self-sufficiency on the battlefield. Biomanufacturing will create bio-based materials to reduce reliance on foreign suppliers, while Contested Logistics Technologies will help U.S. forces sustain operations in contested or denied environments.
The goal, he said, is to ensure troops can fight and resupply even when traditional lines are cut. Each new technology area is meant to reinforce that capability.
«Future warfare will likely be characterized by contested environments in which the Joint Force is challenged to surge, operate into and within the operational theater, and resupply, reconstitute, and recover forces,» Michael wrote. «This CTA will enable the demonstration, validation, and scaling of novel approaches and technologies.»

Other priorities include quantum computing for secure battlefield communications, scaled directed energy systems such as high-energy lasers and high-power microwave weapons, and the expansion of hypersonic capabilities for both offensive and defensive missions.

Each effort depends on close coordination between the Pentagon, private industry and allied militaries to ensure the technologies reach the field quickly.
«Executing these sprints will require unprecedented coordination between the Office of the Under Secretary of War for Research and Engineering, military departments, combatant commands and other Office of the Secretary of War components,» Michael said. «I am committed to working with you and our partners inside and outside of the Department on these efforts.»

Polish Minister of Foreign Affairs Radosław Sikorski announced that an auction of items connected to the Holocaust has been called off.
The planned auction had been connected with the Felzmann auction house in Germany.
«I spoke with the German Foreign Minister @JoWadephul regarding the planned auction in Neuss of items from the time of German terror during the Second World War. We agreed that such a scandal must be prevented,» Sikorski noted in a Polish-language post on X, according to a translation.
«Thank you, minister @JoWadephul, for the information that the offensive auction of Holocaust artifacts has now been cancelled. Respect for victims requires the dignity of silence, not the din of commerce,» he noted in an English-language post.

Nazi Germany’s horrific mass murder of Jews during World War II represents a major point in 20th century world history. Items that would have been up for auction included letters written by prisoners in concentration camps, as well as Gestapo index cards and other perpetrator documents, The Associated Press reported, citing German news agency dpa.

There had been pushback against the plan for the auction.
For example, the Fritz Bauer Institute strongly objected to the Holocaust-related auction in a press release.
«The Fritz Bauer Institute protests against the planned auction by the Felzmann auction house and fundamentally opposes any commercial trade in documents relating to Nazi persecution and the Holocaust. No business should be conducted with such documents,» a German-language press release declared, according to a translation.

«For victims of Nazi persecution and Holocaust survivors, this auction is a cynical and shameless undertaking that leaves them outraged and speechless,» Christoph Heubner of The International Auschwitz Committee declared in a statement, according to the AP. «We urge those responsible at the Felzmann auction house to show some basic decency and cancel the auction,» he had noted in the statement, according to the outlet.
