Abstract: This research explores the effectiveness of collaborative Research and Development (R&D) frameworks within the military-industry-university nexus of the United States, with a focus on innovative technologies that offer sustainable solutions. The paper uses Desktop Review as the research methodology to explore past literature and government reports on best practices and key factors contributing to disruptive technological advancements and sustainable practices within the US military. Some of the findings include best practices that promote collaborative R&D and sustainable innovation within the military such as Federal Laboratory Consortium, Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR), and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR). The paper concludes with strategic recommendations and actionable insights aimed at optimizing collaborative R&D approaches to enhance sustainability, efficiency, and impact ful innovation in military technology. In conclusion, the research advances the ongoing dialogue and action aimed at optimizing the synergy between the US military, industry, and academic research institutions. The research intends to harness the potential of academia and industry to drive advancements in military technology while ensuring strategic national capabilities and long-term sustainability.
