A number of external research projects and tools are using ns-3; below we list the ones that we know about.
NetAnim
NetAnim is an offline animator based on the Qt 4 toolkit. It currently animates the simulation using an XML trace file collected during simulation. The first version was developed by George F Riley. NetAnim 2 and 3 are written and maintained by John Abraham.
The LTE-EPC Network Simulator (LENA) project
A team of developers at CTTC (Nicola Baldo, Marco Miozzo, Manuel Requena, Jaume Nin) has announced the LENA (LTE/EPC Network simulAtor) project to be working in collaboration with Ubiquisys on an enhanced LTE module for ns-3.

ns-3-Wireless-Planning
ns-3-Wireless-Planning integrates two powerful applications: Radio Mobile (radio-systems simulator) and ns-3.
PhySim-Wifi
PhySim-Wifi is a detailed and accurate implementation of the OFDM-based IEEE 802.11 standard, with higher fidelity at the physical layer than found in ns-3.
NSF Frameworks for ns-3 project
A multi-year project funded by NSF to improve usability of ns-3. Please see NSF_Frameworks page.
