The U.S. Armed Services work with the combatant commanders and the executive agent through a joint process to identify requirements and coordinate the planning, programming and funding of non-lethal weapons research, development and acquisition. Within the Department of Defense Non-Lethal Weapons Program, the Joint Non-Lethal Weapons Directorate (JNLWD) and the Services fund science and technology, research and development, as well as test and evaluation for non-lethal weapons. The Commandant of the Marine Corps serves as the Department of Defense Non-Lethal Weapons Executive Agent. Located at Marine Corps Base Quantico, Va., the JNLWD serves as the Department of Defense Non-Lethal Weapons Program Executive Agent's day-to-day management office.
As a recognized leader in National Security technologies, ARA will bring a depth of expertise to support JNLWD’s mission.
“This is a great win for both the ARA team and the JNLWD," said Tom Monaco, ARA Analytical Solutions Division Manager. ”ARA has a long history of support to the Services. We are proud to be able to continue supporting their missions and ensuring the warfighters have the most effective, state-of-the-art, non-lethal weapon systems at their disposal.”
