Related goals of the draft SRIA 2026
3 goals of the draft SRIA 2026 concern these technologies; the first 3 are listed.
- Goal ambition for 2035: Deliver verified quantum advantage through quantum simulation, maturing end-to-end materials-simulation workflows in which fermionic simulators work inside industrial modelling pipelines.
- Goal greatest impact by 2035: Positioning, navigation and timing without satellite navigation is ranked first by impact, ahead of biology and medicine, sensing and testing, exploration and electromagnetic spectrum operations.
- Milestone 2030 KPI: At least 15 operational use cases across navigation, geophysics, defence and infrastructure.
