Counter Improvised-Threat Advanced Studies

Abstract

This Program Element (PE) executes applied research into novel methods for detecting and defeating Improvised Explosive Devices (IED) through the application of emerging technologies as well as research into emerging IED threats to evaluate potential methods of defeat. Efforts are selected in the budget year and current year of execution to address program requirements. This PE is executed in coordination with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering (USD/R&E) and the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA). Work in this Project is fully coordinated with Program Element (PE) 0603134A (Counter Improvised Threat Simulation), Project CD3 (Counter Improvised Threat Simulation). The cited work is consistent with the USD/R&E priority focus areas. Work in this Project is managed by Command, Control, Computers, Communications, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) Center. Work is performed by the United States Army Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM), Army Artificial Intelligence Integration Center (AI2C), the Engineering Research and Development Center, Space and Missile Defense Technical Center, and the United States Army Research Institute for the Behavioral and Social Sciences with oversight from Assistant Secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Logistics and Technology for Research and Technology (DASA R&T).
