The Department of Defense (DoD) Militarily Critical Technologies List (MCTL) is a product of the militarily critical technologies program (MCTP) process. This process provides a systematic, ongoing assessment and analysis of technologies to determine those that are critical to U.S. military forces. It assigns values and parameters to the technologies and covers the worldwide technology spectrum. Technologies are selected for the MCTL through the deliberation and consensus of Technology Working Groups (TWGs). TWG chairpersons continually screen technologies and nominate items to be added to or removed from the MCTL. Working within an informal structure, TWG members who come from government, industry, and academia strive to produce precise and objective analyses across the technology areas. The MCTL contains: Weapons Systems Technologies, which details critical technologies with performance parameters that are at or above the minimum level necessary to ensure continuing superior performance of systems used by the Department of Defense and supporting entities, and Developing Critical Technologies, which lists technologies that will produce increasingly superior performance of military systems or maintain a superior capability more affordably. It focuses on worldwide technologies that will become available in the future for incorporation into U.S. weapons systems.
The MCTL is not an export control list. There may be items in the MCTL that are not on an export control list. There may be items on an export control list that are not on the MCTL. The MCTL is used as a reference document for evaluating potential technology transfers and for reviewing technical reports and scientific papers for public release. The information must be applied using technical judgment.
Over 15,000 pages of documents are reproduced using Adobe Acrobat PDF software - allowing direct viewing on Windows and Apple Macintosh systems. Reader software is included. Our CD-ROMs are privately-compiled collections of official public domain U.S. government files and documents - they are not produced by the federal government. They are designed to provide a convenient user-friendly reference work utilizing the benefits of the Adobe Acrobat format to uniformly present thousands of pages that can be rapidly reviewed, searched by finding specific words, or printed without untold hours of tedious research and downloading. Vast archives of important public domain government information that might otherwise remain inaccessible are available for instant review no matter where you are. This book-on-a-disc makes a great reference work and educational tool. There is no other reference that is as fast, convenient, comprehensive, thoroughly researched, and portable - everything you need to know, from the federal sources you trust..
