What sort of work do we do?
The following pages explain the work that Dstl does through the use
of examples and case studies and the explanation of our capabilities.
We are primarily focused on the needs and future requirements of MOD
and our Armed Forces and therefore our working areas tackle land, sea
and air system requirements where we explore, analyse and advise on
weapons systems research, the balance of investment, technical risk
and top-level systems research. Our experts integrate their work with
technology, policy and capability studies at every level.
We fully understand the roots of systems concepts as we work at all
stages of military planning. Systems work is about bringing together
the physical, human and conceptual elements necessary to achieve heightened
performance. This, in turn, enables us to provide advice from the operational
through to strategic level decision making.
We can make modifications to existing technology or introduce new
innovative technologies to best suit the issues and the available budget.
Our staff are also deployable to the MOD, Armed Forces and other government
departments to act as the hub for science and technology, integrating
ideas with other projects across the government if required.
