AFRLTech Permeates The National Museum of the #USAF
Brief History
In 1945 the #AirForce Cambridge Research Laboratories were established. These laboratories were active from 1945 to 2011, following consolidation to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and Kirtland Air Force Base under the 2005 Base Realignment and Closure Commission.
The labs were founded as the Air Force Cambridge Research Center (AFCRC), a Cold War systems development organization which developed telephone modem communications for a Digital Radar Relay in 1949.[5] Created by General Henry H. Arnold in 1945,[ AFCRC participated in Project Space Track and Semi-Automatic Ground Environment development.
In 2020, the Space Vehicles Directorate announced the creation of a new Deployable Structures Laboratory (DeSel) focused on developing high-strength materials and satellite structures at Kirtland Air Force Base.
