Raytheon Wins Defense Contract for Wireless Power Technologies Development for US Army

The Department of Defense has taken a significant step in advancing military capabilities by awarding Raytheon a contract focused on developing directed energy wireless power technologies for the U.S. Army. This contract involves the design and manufacture of transmitters and receivers, which will be essential for conducting long-range tests that align with the Armyโ€™s requirements for both manned and unmanned systems.

Raytheon emphasized that this initiative is a critical component of the Pentagonโ€™s overarching strategy to ensure the efficient distribution and availability of energy during combat operations, logistics, and troop security in what has become increasingly complex modern warfare scenarios. The company articulated that the implementation of wireless power-beaming technology is set to streamline military operations by reducing the necessity for soldiers to carry traditional fuel and battery supplies. This innovation is expected to extend operational time significantly and diminish reliance on concentrated fuel depots, which can be susceptible to enemy attacks.

Colin Whelan, the President of Raytheon Advanced Technology, reflected on the transformative potential of this technology, stating, โ€œWireless power and data can provide enhanced capability in the future manned and unmanned teaming battlespace.โ€ He highlighted the importance of this advancement, particularly in environments characterized by high levels of threat where operational challenges are heightened.

In a related move, Raytheon also secured a $10 million contract in December 2023, aimed at developing a wireless airborne power-generating capability under DARPAโ€™s Persistent Optical Wireless Energy Relay (POWER) program. This initiative, launched in 2022, seeks to explore innovative solutions to resolve the traditional energy source challenges faced by military operations by utilizing optical wireless energy technologies. Collectively, these efforts illustrate a concerted push toward integrating advanced energy solutions within military frameworks, reshaping how energy is utilized on the battlefield.
