The United States Air Force (USAF) has maintained a long tradition in the support of research activities related to the Nondestructive Evaluation (NDE) of both metal and composite materials. The results of several of such efforts are being presented at this SAMPE conference. This paper has been prepared in order to communicate to the technical community the current approaches being investigated and some of the initiatives being used to couple the concepts of nondestructive materials evaluation to the continuing development of practical applications for composite materials. Outlined below are some of the recent programs which are resulting in improved means for testing composite materials and plans for future developments aimed at transitioning these improvements into Air Force and industrial practices.
