Background/History of the Laboratory:

The AFRL Air Vehicles Directorate (VA) seeks to enable the joint warfighter to anticipate, find, fix, track, target, engage, and assess anyone, anywhere, at any time. The directorate focuses on core competencies (Integration, Control Sciences, Structures and Aeronautical Sciences) and works in concert with other AFRL directorates to achieve this vision. The directorate has established Centers of Excellence in Computational Sciences, Control Science, Multi-Disciplinary Technologies, and Structural Science.
