2011 HF Radar Partnership Summary & Challenges Utilized significant leveraging of resources Software (IOOS, ONR), Hardware (IOOS, DoD, NJBPU), Field tests (DoD, CIMES) Lack of dedicated test equipment still hinders progress. Real-time Vessel Detection development is ahead of schedule due to leveraged tests beyond CSR (DoD, DHS, IOOS). All leveraged test programs except Open Mongoose ended. Association is the next research step path has been defined. Path forward requires new partners and new test equipment. Interest of the International Community is accelerating. How do we grow a distributed national & global dual-use network?
