The need for advanced integrated circuit development for millimeter wave component realization has been described. The primary drivers for this effort are to reduce RF subassembly costs and to prepare a baseline configuration for high volume production. Hybrid and monolithic circuit techniques utilizing GaAs as the dominant material are being rapidly developed for radar and radiometer sensor requirements over the frequency range 30 to 100 GHz. Table VI provides several ground rules which have proven to be very effective in meeting the 'new generation' component challenge. It is predicted that considerable energy over the next few years will be devoted to automatic assembly and test techniques development for producing fully solid state tactical radar sensors at rates comparable to those now associated with the nonmilitary consumer products marketplace.
