This paper presents a view of the future of U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) logistics from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) perspective--not what the DOD logistics will look like in the next few years, but a view of where it ought to be a decade or two decades from now. DARPA is a DOD agency that is and always has been strongly focused on military capabilities. DARPA's mission is to develop imaginative, innovative, and other high-risk technology and systems for the military that offer a significant military impact and go well beyond the normal evolutionary developmental approaches. DARPA is beginning a new program this year that focuses on logistics and the complex problems of projecting and sustaining combat power.
