Abstract: Quantum Technologies (QT) are one of the main emerging and disruptive technologies for defence and “Quantum Supremacy” has become a major objective for government leaders in national security. Quantum Sensing (QS) is the most mature domain and has the potential for revolutionary impact on defence operations but significant technical challenges lie ahead before operational systems can be developed: overall performance and the dynamic range of operations of the sensing technologies must be improved (sensitivity, spectral coverage,etc.), technology must be matured to become operable in real conditions, resilience against environmental effects (temperature, g-forces, etc.) must be ensured while respecting the SWaP-C (size/weight/power-cost) constraints of the defence sector. ADEQUADE intends to provide improvements in a whole range of QS domains with activities ranging from postiion, navigation & timing to RF and acceleration/rotation sensing
