Combat Zones That See, or CTS, is a project of the United States Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) [1] whose goal is to "track everything that moves" in a city by linking up a massive network of surveillance cameras to a centralized computer system. [2]
In September 2020, DARPA and the US Air Force announced that the Hypersonic Air-breathing Weapon Concept (HAWC) are ready for free-flight tests within the next year. [37] Victoria Coleman became the director of DARPA in November 2020. [38] In recent years, DARPA officials have contracted out core functions to corporations.

The book, based on interviews with scientists and engineers who worked in Area 51, addresses the Roswell UFO incident [1] [2] and dismisses the alien story.. Instead, it suggests that Josef Mengele was recruited by the Soviet leader Joseph Stalin to produce "grotesque, child-size aviators" to be remotely piloted and landed in America to cause hysteria in the likeness of Orson Welles' 1938 ...
In 2020, DARPA selected Northrop Grumman's subsidiary SpaceLogistics as its RSGS partner. The U.S. Naval Research Laboratory designed and developed the RSGS robotic arm with DARPA funding. The robotic arm has completed key tests and is on track to be launched to GEO in 2024 by Northrop Grumman's 3000-kilogram spacecraft . [ 2 ]
The DARPA EXACTO program uses different methods from Sandia's guided round. It relies on remote-guidance tied to the optics, which may be more reliable than Sandia's laser guidance method of painting the target with a laser for their projectile to follow, which can be detected, diffused, or blocked.
DARPA launched the project in mid-2022, wanting a plane that could lift large, heavy loads by skimming the water in ground effect, and capable of operating at mid-altitudes of up to 10,000 feet (3,000 m). Utilizing the ground effect, flying at an altitude equal to 5% of the wingspan can deliver 2.3 times more efficient flight performance.
The DARPA XS-1 was an experimental spaceplane/booster with the planned capability to deliver small satellites into orbit for the U.S. Department of Defense. [1] It was reported to be designed to be reusable as frequently as once a day, with a stated goal of doing so for 10 days straight. [ 2 ]
