A nonprofit R&D lab, specializing in weapons for the Navy, operated by Johns Hopkins University. Similar in some respects to MIT's Draper Lab, this lab was formed by the Department of Defense in WWII, as a weapons research and development lab and think tank. Located on a 365-acre compound, separate from the University, with over 140 experimental labs and facilities. The lab employs at least 3,000 people, and has an annual budget around $480 million. Recent and current programs at the lab include lie-detection software for the FBI, Tomahawk missile upgrades for the Navy, and radar systems for the U. S. Customs Service.
