Department of War Areas of Interest

The US Department of War has identified a set of priority interest areas derived directly from observed real-world operational scenarios, current theater demands, and validated capability gaps across multiple operational environments. These interest areas reflect lessons learned from recent operations, exercises, and contingency planning, with emphasis on capabilities that can be fielded rapidly, integrated with existing force structures, and employed under contested conditions. Solutions of interest are those that demonstrate operational relevance, technical maturity, and a clear pathway to deployment in support of national defense objectives.

Product Knowledge is actively soliciting demonstrable capabilities aligned to specific US Department of War-identified interest areas; companies and developers with mature or near-term solutions should submit inquiries via email to guru@productknowledge.cc and include the following information as a single consolidated submission: Company Name, Company Address, Company Point of Contact, POC email address and phone number, a concise two-page capability description, representative images, and videos of the capability; briefing decks or existing marketing materials may be included as supplemental attachments. Submissions should focus on practical, employment-ready capabilities rather than conceptual research or long-term development efforts.
